300ex a 297cc?
i seen in dirt wheels a while back that the 05 300ex is a 297cc i just never got around to posting this question but dose anyone know if it is faster? or alot more powerful? any differnt? also i seen a 04 at the honda shop and it said on the engine block it was a 281cc? y did it go to a 282cc to a 281 cc and finaly can live up to its name a 297cc ? also will my X (63mph) still beat it?

The 300EX is still a 282 or 281, not sure which, Honda and the magazines all say 282 and the engine says 281, so I'm not sure which is right, but its definately not a 297, at least not from the Honda website.

A Stock 300ex has a bore of 74 mm and a stroke of 65.5 mm and seeing as how volume (displacement) = (πr^2)*h or (1/2 of the bore (r) squared times pi( π ) times the height of the cylinder (stroke)) then 1/2 of 74 is 37 so:
( π ) (37^2) * (65.5) = ( π ) (1369) * (65.5) = ( π )*89669.5= 281075.0425 mm^3
divide by 1000 to convert to cc so 281075.0425/1000= 281.0750425cc
so there ya go, offcially the displacement is 281.07 cc
( π ) (37^2) * (65.5) = ( π ) (1369) * (65.5) = ( π )*89669.5= 281075.0425 mm^3
