I WAS JUST WONDERING WHAT ARE THE BEST MODIFICATIONS I COULD DO TO A 00 300EX FOR $500. I AM GETTING A 300EX IN A MONTH AND I HAVE $500 TO SPEND ON IT ANDI WAS JUST WONDERING WHAT ARE THE BEST MODIFICATIONS TO GET GOOD PERFOMANCE OUT OF THE MACHINE. I AM TALKING ABOUT SCREW ON MODS, NOT ANYTHING DONE IN THE MOTOR, THINGS LIKE PIPES AND AIR FILTER AND TIRES, STUFF LIKE THAT, THANKS A LOT

 

I have a Supertrapp E.A.R exhaust system for sale. It fits 250x/300ex. It's about a year and a half old. Completely sanded and painted with high temp paint. It comes with a Supertrapp headpipe (bigger than stock).It's in great shape. Ill sell it for $100. Which is a great price considering the fact it cost close to $300 brand new. email me a MOTOMAN446@aol.com

 

I have a FMF Megamax II and a K&N Air filter and jet kit and it is a lot more power than stock

300ex... The Big Red Machine

 

Well I have two of these machines and this is what I have done to both of them. I think that you will find thse the most popular mods to the 300EX.

FMF pipe, K&N Filter with Skinz, Re jetted to 125's, Opened air box with a set of six 1" filters. Replaced the airtube with one from a 350X. Same as the EX except a bit larger inside allowing even more air through. Under $300 a machine for all of the above.

This allows the 300 to really breath and quite frankly unleashes it! Your jetting will be different as I run at high altitude to extream altitude.

I have works shocks on one of these machines and WOW! they do make a big difference in feel and handeling! But they are not a cheap add on. My son broke a shock so I choose to replace with these. I also have a twist
throttle on one machine, personal preference.

We also run in the hills from woods to open trails. Some sand and about anything else mountain country can throw at ya.

 

TopCat, what altitude do you ride? I also run at very high altitudes, and wondered if those jetting specs. would work for me. I start out at 4500' and ride up to 7000'.

Thanks,
Jeff

 

luv2ride,
I'd suggest that you buy that pipe from xcracer for $100 and with the $400 you have left you'll have a good start towards some aftermarket suspension.
