Ive been looking around for a few thangs for the quad. Was looking to get the HMF Ballance CF Slip-on, and a K&N filter w/ lid filter as well. Problem is, i can only find the HMF system i want in the “full” kit, which includes header and is like $550! Anyone know where i can get just a slip on, or cant I?

Also, will i need to re-jet my junk?

Also consider, hes what 170lbs, and youre 230 or so(?), weight makes a big difference

Theres a bike dyno in Mechanicville but I dont know if they can do a quad because the dyno might be too narrow.

Cool. Mod it up and youll be faster and wont take the depreciation hit on a trade in.

Hmm, i thought about that too lol. We’ll hafta see when the time comes i guess. I really dont know alot about what are/arent good parts for the quads, as i havent really been into the quad scene for too long. I really just wanna get teh most power out of each mod that i can…obviously lol

i would go with a yoshi full pipe. k&n air and new cdi box. those would be the best bang for the buck.

cam mod is really were it is at for the z 400. u make big gains with that.

if i were to do the cam i would at least do the pipe.

of course all those mods need a rejet.
