98_shee Posted April 28, 2008 Report Posted April 28, 2008 If a ex and z400 beat you there is something wronge with your bike lol, what kinda money you wanting to spend, get you some good pipes, port work, carbs, it just depends on how much you want to spend. Quote

Do you have Pipes? You need a bigger front sprocket probably. Your tires are super small. Ditch the reed spacers. Ditch the boost bottle and get a timing plate. You didn't give us much info, so I dont quite know what to tell you. Quote

yamaha_daniel Posted April 28, 2008 Author Report Posted April 28, 2008 what all info do you need to know ? ill tell you everything you need to know-dan Quote
06BaNsHeE Posted April 28, 2008 Report Posted April 28, 2008 You will need atleast 16/41 with those little tires in the back if your running on the street Quote
Banshee0028 Posted April 28, 2008 Report Posted April 28, 2008 Yep, I really think you need to either change to 20" tires, or up the gearing to at least a 14 or 15 up front with the 18's! Quote
dragbanshee Posted April 28, 2008 Report Posted April 28, 2008 Damn thats embarrasing, atleast spend enough to get the stock gearing 14/41 and the stock size tires 20" thats all you need to beat the 400s. Someones got cheap wheels and tires to sell you. Quote

When you get some dough come back to us. This shit aint cheap. Something is up. I could out run 400ex's on one lung. Quote

SQUIRREL MASTER Posted April 28, 2008 Report Posted April 28, 2008 atleast your honest. i would personally never mention that. sell the pipes you currently have and buy better pipes and get some stock banshee tires. good pipes and stock tires you should be beating that 400 all day and you wont spend a bunch of money. if your problem is driving then race him rolling on second gear and make sure your on your powerband. good luck.
