Big Bore Rice Rocket
Big Bore Rice Rocket
Since Im moving up to a timbo fx450, my best ridin buddy and I are thinking about giving his 99 400ex a little more kick with our extra time over the summer. Hes got a pipe, jets and filter (like everyone else) and he's had no problems with the motor so far. Its one of the cleaner-looking 99s Ive seen. I think I can probably pull off some of the motor kits out there pretty easy so thats what we're considering. I was just wondering what you guys think is the best motor setup for reliable trail and track riding with a couple races a year. Would you honda guys go with 416 or 440? How much more power can you feel between the two, and what kinda wear are they putting on the low end? We have a list of parts - bigbore, cams, rev box and such that total about 500 bucks and it seems like a pretty good way to make a quick quad. Any comments are welcome!
The motor should be very similar to the one on phycosis's cdale. timbo stroker crank, atk piston and sleeve, low end bearing updates, stage 8... Only thing really different is that I am gonna try running the 500 computer on it for a while and I might not have mine dialed in as good, but Im thinkin it will still rip more than anything Ive been on. I will make sure to put up a big post about it once Im through with break in. Probably a few more weeks and I will have it all back together.
