Whats faster 250ex or 300ex
#21
I'm hopin to build my 450 S to outrun your 250ex. Imagine gettin beat by a utility. If you want to go Fast, start w/ something bigger. I went thru the same problem w/ my mojave last year. You can only do so much.

The thing is i dont care if i can go 60mph or faster...i probably never will so to me its pointless...the only reason we brought this up is so we can find anyone that had a similar race so we can see how others people races came out before we actually race...i got a quad and am happy about that.

The 300ex is faster than i thought it gave me a run for my money all the way into fifth we were dead even i might be able to pull away very slowly but with a pipe and airfliter on the 300ex he could run right with me and we are talking about 300exriderjay. Maybe he got an abnormally fast one? who knows. but 300ex to 250ex i think the 300ex will spank as someone said just comparing speeds as how i see it when i ride with both no offense.

The fact is the big gun exhaust will give you 10-15 percent more hp which translates to alot more noise but only 1 to1.5 more hp over stock (11.8hp)THe k-n filter gives another 5-10 percent so thats another.5 to 1 hp so now your at 13-14hp max! the bearclaws will give a little more top end speed because they are about 1 in. taller,but you will lose a little off the start. the 300ex has 14hp stock so your about even at hp ratings but your still putting it threw a autoclutch and a driveshaft and a ring and pinion which robs more hp then a chain drive.

The horsepower on the sheet is not measered at the rear wheels. It is at the crankshaft or something. If the thing on the title was true than a 300ex would have 21 which it definately doesnt have. Simple mistake to make

I can hardly see a fair comparison here, I've ridden both and i've gotta say, a 300 just outperforms the 250 in every way. Its like trying to compare a 300 to a 400, there is a big difference. To me, the 250 feels quite a bit like what it is...... a glorified Recon.

it's not magazines it's this website were on.I also have experience my brother has a 250ex and my cousin has a 300ex and we go riding all the time and on top end my brothers 250 is almost right with the 300.Any way my lakota can outrun both of them.
