Hey I just bought one of those for 200 dollars and boy is it bad it needs a whole new top end I'd give it to you if you would just make a video about it
Mike these bikes you build should be put in a museum. Absolutely the finest ltz400 example on the planet. Im sure a large percentage of viewers agree. Thanks for saving them 1 at a time.
I really think the z was a very underrated machine. It’s a shame these and the Honda 400ex couldn’t stick around any longer… thank you Mike for giving these some attention!
@@MichaelSabo Is there going to be another top quad series? Maybe something similar to the mid size quad version? I've seen them all atleast twice they're the best series on YT.
When I watch a video, I like I usually leave a comment. But when I watch your videos, I am literally speechless! You are an absolute magician your craftsmanship is unreal. I don’t even know what to say! 🤷🏻♂️
The Z400... back when atv magazines were at their peak! Late 80's Dirtwheels and mid 2000's Dirtwheels had some of the best, tech, shootout, builds, and reader's rides articles.
The build is looking so sweet. The look on your face when you installed your swingarm was priceless. LMAO. Oh...don't forget your frame to motor grounds. You don't want that issue to resurface again.
Mike I’m heading up to Scott’s power sports soon to pick up a fresh ktm125sx I’m so excited for it, Ive seen ur video on going in there and I loved it.
The production and quality of your videos are getting so good, been a fan since last year, can’t wait to see what the future holds for your creative builds keep up the good work
I’d say one of the most impressive projects I’ve seen you do Mike. Very interesting and cool to see how close to OEM you got with it. Awesome video Mr. Sabo!
Man! Watching this LTZ400 series really takes me to year 2005 when i sat on one yellow LTZ400 and few months later my dad bought me one! To this day i still have it and ride it, but everything is aftermarket now and I can hard remember the OEM look! But looking at your build REALLY takes me back to the beautiful old days ! Of course I adore the way my Z400 now rides (434 big bore, FCR 41MM carb, fox air shocks and +3 a arms and suspension - dunes eating machine) but that OEM look and feel is priceless!!👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻🔥💯 Keep it up mate!
Incredible work. And great community of like-minded subscribers who still have a passion for dirt riding of yesteryear, while the majority of folks do nothing but golf…
I did an entire ground up 04 z400 build last winter. When I seen you put the oil tank and rad in before the steering stem I started laughing. I did the same thing and had to take the two back out lol
The word for today is "OEM"😂😂😂😂. Love the channel and the content. I've learned so much watching your videos so thanks for sharing your knowledge with everyone. Keep up the awesome content!!!!!
You are my favorite meathead and I mean that with nothing but love!! Great job on this dude and I've watched all of the videos and all on the extra channel.
The valve cover or the cam cover whatever you want to call it I think looks awesome I love that Matt blue finish it doesn't match the frame of the four-wheeler but I think it looks great
Before I watch I'm gonna say I have a 05ltz got end of last season . Did a co.plete tear down. I have everything I need for bushings bearings and almost time to start putting it back together . My wife's cousin told me about this so im gonna sit down here shortly and watch and hope I get a few tips
Lmfao I’ve had this song stuck in my head for the last few weeks it got so bad that I had to learn part of what I remembered on guitar. The whole time I was like What in the hell is this riff from!!!” I even showed it to my sister who is a huge metal head and she didn’t know. Turns out it was one of the songs played in your videos. Specifically the quadzilla full assembly video. Makes sense because it’s my favorite series of yours. But either way just another thing amazing about the content you put out love the tracks and love what your doing Mike. Keep up all the good work and so excited to see the conclusion of the LTZ build!!!!
Your videos never seem to amaze me! Keep it up man! I’ve been watching for a while now! Not only has the quality of your videos/explanations grown but the quality of your builds only continue to get better also! #TheManTheMyth
@@MichaelSabo bent rod, 2 piece piston, rare custom 3 piece cylinder, and the head is grenade edition!!! Haha but only missing the exhaust so it'll get built right. I'm gonna give it to my brother for 200 and rebuild the engine if he gets the parts.
Hi Michael, I was the one asking about the pit bike earlier. I had the 230r I think I’m gonna pull the trigger on a pit bike. Thanks for your opinion. The engine build looks sick
I think that is amazing the ltz400 is my absoulte dream quad but they Are worth a pretty penny😂. Plis keep this beast really sick that u TikTok the time to get this so original and clean.
Please do a warrior 350 I need the in detail depth you go into to help build mine 🙏 love your videos and content I’ve been watching for awhile now and it amazes me how amazing your make your builds look
@@MichaelSabo man that's why you're the goat a man of the people thank you for the content and literally being the best at your craft man you should seriously consider getting into some product designs and engineering for one of the big 4 💪💯🇺🇲

Looking jacked brother! I know the feeling riding after lifting. Full body fatigue

Imagine owning a Sabo built atv and you have these detailed videos of assemblies, and an awesome reference for maintenance. Badass
You build these things better than the factory.

Looking pretty sweet. Michael is the best.

Its so epic seeing it come together! Cant wait for part 2!
Glad you're enjoying it man!

This goes down as my favorite build on your channel 🤘
that cam cover being that different shade of blue makes that motor pop, really glad to see that and the welded case saved. truly a revival
YO IM SO READY FOR THIS BECAUSE I USED TO OWN A Z 400 BUT IT GOT STOLEN THIS GIVES ME NOSTALGIA
Dang man I can’t imagine getting my quad stolen😢
Mike I’m heading up to Scott’s power sports soon to pick up a fresh ktm125sx I’m so excited for it, Ive seen ur video on going in there and I loved it.
Mike, you simply build the most prestigious power sports machines I’ve ever seen
Mike, the attention to detail is next level. Amazing stuff. I can't wait to see the finished product man. Making me miss my Z400 😢
Love your vids man you should do so more two stroke dirt bike builds would love to see it loved the grape ape keep up the good work though👍🏼
Mike Sabo video is the perfect end to my Monday. Loving the build, can't wait for the next one.
The production and quality of your videos are getting so good, been a fan since last year, can’t wait to see what the future holds for your creative builds keep up the good work
So stoked you went with the OG exhaust!
This is how all your videos should be. This way is so much better to watch. We have watched you build how many bikes. This flowed better.
Premium content sir. Had one in white, same pipe. Nostalgia overload!
A true inspiration to the sport atv community, incredible work mike! My favorite build to date. Keep up the great work!
I wish it was final assembly . I have a love for Suzuki quads had Lt 500 loved that quad. Keep up the great work you do.
Ur channel is the only one i watch every single second! No fast forwards!
I’d say one of the most impressive projects I’ve seen you do Mike. Very interesting and cool to see how close to OEM you got with it. Awesome video Mr. Sabo!
Guys.....let's tell everyone about Mike sabo...,help this man reach 1 million subs!
You are too kind man, thank you 🤘

Possibly best powersport guy ever. I have a goal to own a sabo special one day:)
I love the part in the intro where parts are laid out and u laid out too... you put ALOT of work into these projects shits fire bro 🔥🔥
Literally can’t get myself to even watch TV but always make time to watch your videos. 💪💪💪
LOL I liked the layout @ 0:10 , it's like a model kit complete with action figure!

Anyone want to join me in on a game of drink every time he say’s “OEM” ?? 😂
Awesome vid as usual Michael!
At 45 years old I don't think my liver could keep up. Its not like it used to be back in my fraternity days.
Incredible work. And great community of like-minded subscribers who still have a passion for dirt riding of yesteryear, while the majority of folks do nothing but golf…
LET'S GO MS!! This thing is looking SO good.
Looking good so far. Nice work, brother. You made the right choice on the exhaust system, it looks like a work of art. Catch ya on the next one.
Hell yeah dude she's coming along nice!! Brings back memories for sure!
Speaking of Breezewood proving grounds I just was there again this weekend you should go back Mike it’s awesome
Looking very sharp Mike. Good stuff 👍🏻 Excited to see the end result. Your attention to detail is on point.
Yess was with the wait for sure🔥🔥
This is your best build so far, great work and she looks amazing. Perfect colors
Sick build! I would wrap the headlight shroud/hood in the blue decals to match the graphics to make it look more like the old school 250.
Mike you inspire me to rebuild my quads and make them look good man you help so much
Quad looks awesome! Cant wait to the next video!
Looks AMAZING! Takes me back to the summer of 2002 when I agonized between buying a 400ex or the 2003 Z400!
pretty cool you’ve rode at breezewood. love the track
Man,I loved the tail light dilemma😂
Brother you definitely take pride in your work and it shows big time man you're one of the best on here I don't care what anybody says💯💪🏼💪🏼💚👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I did an entire ground up 04 z400 build last winter. When I seen you put the oil tank and rad in before the steering stem I started laughing. I did the same thing and had to take the two back out lol

Dude, the Yoshimura looks sweet

Hi Mike. This is once again an awesome build. I enjoyed it very much. 😊 Well done 🎉

Before I watch I'm gonna say I have a 05ltz got end of last season . Did a co.plete tear down. I have everything I need for bushings bearings and almost time to start putting it back together . My wife's cousin told me about this so im gonna sit down here shortly and watch and hope I get a few tips
