I was told the 500 handle would fit the 400 models. I just got one and tried to put the handle on, but when I tighten it up the drag star becomes almost not moveable. I tried to loosen the locking nut, but you have to have it pretty loose for the drag star to turn with out it feeling forced.

Has anyone else used this handle with the 400's?? just want some kind of verification if it can fit or not at all.

Thanks

sounds like the spacer above the drag star (washer with rectangular slot in it) is missing. check the bottom of your handle for the 400. they like to stick to the handles from the factory grease.

Looks like that was it! I noticed that the first time I took it off, but didn't touch it. It was so perfectly placed, a quick look made it seem like it was actually part of the handle. Doo doo dooo....I was going to check it out after thinking aboout it overnight, but thanks for the confirmation.
