oldschoolsdime92 Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 ive recently acquired a 1999 400ex from my uncle. I got running last night, but I need to pull the carb and clean it up. I also need to check the valves and make adjustments if needed. He purchased it new in 1999, and rode it that season and alittle up untill 2003, and it sat from 04 to 08,and he had it running in 08, and its sat until now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beegreenstrings Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 (edited) I would take that.
