After watching the footage myself... I definitely think there's an audible difference in the exhaust! Thank you for watching, you ROOOOCK! 🤘

I notice a difference after sounds normal and before sounds clapped lol
Todd's quads
@@dwainmowatt3058 omg 😂
Hey man, Invest in a Dragy. I use mine for my race car, and all my quads after mods 😎🤙🏾
I love the 400ex so much. Especially 2005 and later when they added reverse. Honda really needs to bring it back. Great videos man!
I wish I still had my 2001!!!
This is what it must be like buying a quad from that guy who uses wd 40 to fix everything.
Ww40 as motor oil
Lol that’s that guy 2vintage
@@4stroke_king 🤣🤣so true
@@4stroke_king I love 2 vintages videos but he is kind of an idiot 😂
and zip ties
You need a new test track. Your neighbors are probably having secret meetings to kick you out.
No truer words have ever been spoken lol
That scooter kid wants all the smoke💨💨
Why does his neighborhood remind me of home alone
Sounds like the jetting is really close if not spot on. Great job on this build Mike.
That is cleanest sounding 400ex ive ever heard. It sounds so smooth
Definitely a good bit peppier than a stock 400, especially considering the stock exhaust still on it...400ex is a great all around sport/trail quad👍
I am basically new to to You Tube but have watched a few things to help me with stuff around the house. A big thanks to you Michael Sabo and your informative videos you have been making! Love them and definitely will watch more!
@michaelsabo I really enjoy the 400ex series videos, I grew up with this particular year model and you were the baddest person on the block if you had a yellow 400ex in the early 2000’s so it’s fun watching someone bring one back to life
Great video. Love the little story you have in the beginning. Keep doing them. Laugh my a** off.
Hey Heads up man! I am a mechanic for ATV's and so on... The valve cover Gasket ALWAYS leaks, it's just a shim for some reason Honda put that in there to act as a spacer rather them a "gasket" it is a problem with these bikes and the XR bikes. once the valve cover bolts are loosened they warp slightly and they never go back to normal shape. he fix for this is either to have both of those parts machined perfectly flat together OR cheap easy and just as reliable is to ""upgrade" a Paper or Composite gasket is the best fix in all honesty what I have learned. I have worked on so many 400EX's and XR 350's and XR400's they all are almost identical. Anyways I have installed many composite style valve cover gaskets. You need to look on eBay for a composite style Gasket it's cheaper and will NOT leak. ALSO keep an eye out for a head gasket to blow it's also VERY VERY common on 400EX's after the head has been removed for some reason the head bolts start pulling the aluminum with in the first 10 to 20 hours of ride time and it's a head ache. Hope you don't have that happen to you but if you do (or What I Would Highly Suggest doing) the GT Thunder Head Stud up Grade and comedic head gasket. Other then that I buy OEM parts through RockyMountain ATV/MC as well. You can pull up a parts Diagram and find anything OEM. www.ebay.com/itm/1996-2014-Honda-Cylinder-Head-Valve-Cover-Gasket-XR400R-TRX400X-TRX400EX-400EX1/174175349076?hash=item288da8e954:g:stUAAOSwnKRdS1Bk
Just wanted to say I love evey single video you make and I appreciate all the hard work you've put into this channel for all of us 🤘
That means a lot to me man; a lot more to come
That intro is hilarious! 😂👌🏻 The 400ex do sounds deeper and healthyer! Great work man! Keep it!
Haha, thank you man!
Great videos man! I’ve been subscribed forever but I feel the need to leave comments and likes on all from here on out. Keep it up!! I love how thorough you are with your stuff!! MAKE SPORT QUADS GREAT AGAIN!
I feel like this is the nicest survivor 400ex out there. Dig the vids, keep it up!
Sounds nice now and looks way better!!! Can't wait for u guys series with the 400s. Keep it up bro
Mike , the 400 looks like it’s running good now. You did a hell of a good job fixing it up on the cheap! Definitely worth 1k lol like You said I’d buy it right now for that ! Awesome Job brother
You make me so excited to get my banshee up and running so I can rip it 🤘 love the content bro
I remember my 2001 400ex had a really smooth, easy to pull clutch!!😎💪
good to see Mike is making sure his quad has gas before ripping around the neighborhood lol. keep the vids coming man!
Lmao!!!
It sounds deeper like its got a deeper tone to it. Running great though good job mike!!!
Sounds completely different than before, sounds good buddy
You get a thumbs-up right away because of your comedy being hilarious 😂
I would love to have a neighbor like you! Always doing cool things awesome
I had to look up “Lubricity”. I thought you made that up. LOL - I learn something new everyday.
This channel is pretty awesome. Glad I found it a couple weeks ago.
definitely sounds better and great vid👌🏾🐐
i had the same problem with my 400ex valve cover with the same gaskets i took the bolts out and torqued them easily starting at 5 and increased 1ft-lb at a time and that fixed it for me fixed it
Can't wait for the comparison..
👍🍻
Just picked up a 99 400EX! Love these things!
Hey Mike. Just wanted to say love the vids. I ride a grizzly 300. Super rare quad, they where only made 2 years. Saving up for a LTZ400 now.
Nice 400EX, commenting to help your channel.
Sounds way better ,brother much love from upstate new ,what are u asking for quad , and I love the skids for sure makes my day every time brother
So grody bro 😄 great stuff man, can't wait for the yz vids
Nice video , i had a 400ex, very nice quad with good power. Sold it a few months ago and now i have a raptor 660 xD
Two of my favorite quads man!
Hey dude I just picked up a 500lb hydraulic lift table from harbor freight. Slides right under most quads. Lifts them up pretty hi... you should look into getting one. Thing works great
Dont forget to comment mike needs a million subs dude deserves it too
Keep em coming man, I'm lovin' the content!
Def sounds a lot better can’t wait to see it in true action on the trails and hear it with a slip on
👍👍👍👍👍 good job bringing that thing back
Thank you Albert Thompson!
Love your video and can you go through the 421 banshee and do some more in-depth information that you’re going to do it and with going back to the stock strok and stuff and when you were going to do it pls thanks
Sounds way better. Deeper tone, quicker revs come in sooner, and less smoke. Probly from those new valve seals and seats👍
Besides exhaust bike had funny little ticks and noises b4 now that’s gone andsounds healthier ! That salesman creepy laugh was funny!
Was always a fan of the yellow plastics on the 400ex.
like the video man! Always Look forward to your next video’s
I had an 01 400 with a 440 big bore kit and pro circuit slip on and man did it rip. It was all blacked out with plastic. It looked and sounded badass. Wish I would have held onto it. Traded it for Tahoe and that guy traded it for quadzilla.
Sounds like it was a beast of a machine bro!
Sick can't wait to hear it with aftermarket exhaust on it going to be awesome!!!!
I have a 2003 400ex and I rebuilt it, and put in the same gaskets you did and it leaks oil out of the head out of the cam cover too.
you rock bro i enjoy watch your work
Love your Videos keep up the good work
That's the1st Honda I ever bought, 2001 yellow 400ex, awesome quad
I agree man!
I had an 03, it had a smooth clutch too. I loved it but love my 450er more
Nice work very fun watching your work
Antonio Vazquez thank you for watching! 🤘
Live the skits, great channel!
No doubt the o-ring chains make a big difference. on my 125 it absolutely robs the bottom end. ride on .
Absolutely love your vids and your builds man keep it up!
Thank you Ryan Fader!
So sick love the 400ex you can never go wrong
Great, now you've got me looking for a 400EX lol
Man that face in the beginning had me sold 😭😭😭😂
been thinking of getting my lil bro either a 400ex or an ltz 400! such cool to see this build
I had a KFX 400 but I heard the 400ex are also pretty fun!!
I have a 1999 400ex and I have big gun slip on exhaust and I would say it’s a good exhaust for the money
Men I love your intros! Love your channel bro
Great video, and sick quad 👍
Goes along good pretty fast for a 400 ex. Sounds better too the exhaust sounds really good
Mike, Try opening up the factory header pipe by grinding down the welds a bit on the flanges in the cylinder end of the pipe..
He is right that the factory head pipe is a restriction so if you get a slip on and do what he says it should be like a full exhaust system.
Love the video man
Lol the skit is like buying something from 2wd-40 😂
I had to buy three cheap gasket kits for my 400ex, to get the proper case gasket. Definitely had to use a thin layer of gasket maker on the cam cover to seal it.
Awesome vid Mike
Love the video skit. The 400 yaks is going to feel like it has more power because the brakes were not stuck. You should’ve fixed the brakes and tested it before you did the mods then after you did the mods.
By far my favorite skit the laugh was so funny lol
Nice. I love seeing 400ex rebuilds 👍🏾
Love these 400ex videos!
Glad you like them!
Take the the tip off the exhaust and reject the carb it will make it a lot louder I did it to my trx 250ex and it runs perfect and sounds amazing
Again bro i look forward to the skits... and love the 400 ... it sounds bout the same except it does sound healthier...
Thank you bro and more to come!
Very lucky you have that quad I been looking for one
Looking forward to the videos on the 250R!
Its a sweet project done right ~! -Ohio
Didnt expect this to be uploaded that fast
Lol love the into playboy! Dave finished my engine now time for testing
Yes, I heard! I can't wait to see how you like that quad man!
Great work!
Your neighborhood reminds me of the houses in home alone! Lol nice area. Way different out here in Tucson AZ.
Dude awesome build mike
I was introduced to the 400ex when I was like 15... mind blown! Always wanted one.. found my LT250R and forgot about getting a 400ex. Not really tho.... they’re amazing machines, honda for the win AGAIN! On another note- mike power shifting thru his bougie ass neighborhood... neighbors like there goes that asshole again 😂😂
nice vid man👍🏻
Great channel ! Wish i could find deals like that up here in canada...
The giggling of that dealership guy made me fucking roll😂😂😂
Great video makes me want to try this myself
sounds a lot better than it did for sure! doing great Sabo!
Thank you Raptor and TRX Adventurez!
thank you!!
Love these old 400 exs !
Keep em coming great Channel!
Thank you bro! 🤘
Definitely sounds better after mods, more healthy for sure
Sounds and looks good nice man
Awesome stuff. Got a similar taste in music too. Keep it up!
Thank you bro! 🤘
Keep the skits coming and I think you should put more in depth videos on the 400ex.. it was the first quad I built 407 piston 11:1 compression stage 3 hot cam and full amr monster ignition i was 16 and scraped every penny together working weekends and in during summer I am a trx fan for sure
Myn was an 2002
Sounds like a great build man and I like your idea of putting more detailed videos on it!
Editing is on point my guy
Looks like a real fun quad man
