Finally picked up the KLX300, got a few mods done & more to come!! The Reference to the Ricochet skid plate is 3/16” not 3/4”!

I bought the KLX 250 back in November of 05, its currently at 18,500 miles. I got the first one the dealership got in, in fact, I ordered it a month before they even got one. Did a few of the same mods, Utah skid plate, 13-45 from the stock 14-42 gears, airbox mod, jetting, and full Muzzy pipe. I got rid of the stock turns early on, but found that I wanted to be seen more in traffic, so long story short, I now have double turn signals on the bike. I also got rid of the low hanging plate holder for one off Rocky Mt. The first thing I actually did was mount the Pelican 1200 on the rack, best mod ever! The bike has been flawless for all these years, I will never get rid of mine. I also have 2 of the original large brochures from the dealer when I bought the bike. Love the Trackmaster tires, I have run the Kenda K270 and the Dunlop 606 a few times, but my money will go to the 760 tires from now on.

Wow! KC that's the only word that came to mind, man you nailed it that even looks way better than it's counter part KLX300r off road. Not that Kawi needs any help selling these things but I think you sold a few for them, in fact in my neck of the woods most every dealer is (probably due to price) sold out! I would make one other mod that would make that thing the envy of a lot of bikers, E-bay sells an after market light that looks a lot like the KTM's, I put one on an '03 KLX300r I fixed up and it looked killer. I think many owners will pay you the greatest compliment including myself and emulate (copy cat ) your mods, that's a head turner for sure!

It looks great. Nice job. I'm really interested to find out how much low end torque you will gain with the sprocket changes. All I want is a 400, 450, or 500 dual sport with updated technology and decent service intervals. I think most people want the same thing, but the manufacturers just don't seem to hear us. Before anyone mentions the CRF450L or KTM, I have no interest in a $10K bike with 600 mile oil change intervals. I don't want a racing bike. The XR400 and DRZ400 are great bikes too, but I would like something that's a bit more updated. Actually, the XR400 was one of the best bikes I ever owned, but I don't really want to deal with a carb or a kick start anymore. Also, I already have two carbureted bikes so I'm ready for something else. I know a 300 doesn't have the torque of a 400, but since it's all we can get, I'm hoping that your gearing changes bump it up a bit without sacrificing too much top end. If it's acceptable, I may spring for the KLX300. Let us know how it feels.

I cut off my rear fender mess last night on my 2022 300, but I like what you ended up with better. Currently pondering the best exhaust solution, mostly for power, low noise and spark arrester so will be interested in what you came or come up with? Having come off a WR450F I'm kinda missing the throttle a bit, specially lifting the wheel over a down trees but still love the bike. The 450 was like riding a saw horse with a V8 engine, but worked well in my younger years.

I have the Delkevic 14” oval , with quiet core insert, nice tone , but not too loud. I don’t necessarily like the look of it, but it was the only thing available at the time. I have used FMF Q4 in the past, with a quiet core. They look good. Have nice tone & not crazy loud when cruising. The 13 tooth front sprocket will help with getting front wheel up. You’ll lose about 5-7mph on top speed.

Hey KC...I installed the fender eliminator by TST Industries with the fixed, standard license plate mount. I noticed your license plate mount is angled and pretty far away from the exhaust. How did you know to set it up like that? My license plate is like three inches from the exhaust and the exhaust gases are hitting it... making a noise. I wish I had ordered the angled license plate mount.

I would stick with the 400, try low seat foam or suspension lowering. You’ll miss the power of the 400. Of course if power is not a concern, then a switch is more appropriate. The 300 is as good as the DRZ, power is the deciding factor .

Question for you, I have caught holy hell putting my bark busters on today!! Basically the aftermarket throttle tube I bought doesn’t work with the POS factory throttle tube housing that came with the Kawasaki. The factory grip was literally formed onto the factory throttle tube, I couldn’t cut it and tear it off so basically I put it to a bench grinder and grinder the rubber off it just so I could put another grip on it and still use the factory throttle tube. Any suggestion on throttle tube and housing? Flipping pain in the a**!!!!! I have a 2020 btw
