6 1/2 Feet Of Air On A Stock 300ex

I have a natural double on one of the power lines I ride on.I hit it in fouth gear wide open.It hurts real bad even when I land on the down slope.I measured it the hillbilly way.I buried the end of a limb that is about 7ft high.When I jumped I would look over at the limb and the bottom of my tires where just a little bit lower than the top of the limb.I thought that was pretty good for a 300EX.:D

:eek: ,,,,,sounds fun,,,,,,but hard on the bike,,,and you:D

[user101]

i cant wait to come over and try it

i can get some pretty good air with my 3wheeler...but its beats the **** outta me since i dont have any back suspension

[joe250]

I get that much air on my 250ex at the local motocross park alot, i bottom the suspension and hurt myself. But what the heck its a lott fun!

[TRX250XFIRE]

i all ways used to bottom out my suspension when it was stock, have u tried to stiffin them up a little bit or no? thats what i did on mine

Yeh I have stiffened them all the way.How much more air can you get with the works shocks before you bottom out?

[TRX250XFIRE]

hum, i can do a pretty good number, but they feel kinda soft when i push down on them, i think that they feel alot softer but they dont bottom out as much as stock, i raced this weekend were there was a 75 foot table top and 3 times i came up about 6 feet to short, and it bottomed out there, but usally i dont hit that hard, works are DEF better then im stockers though,

I seen a kid at the track this past weekend getting 7ft of air on stock 300ex suspension. Crazy kids!!:blah

[yellowrider]

i got 4 1/2 feet yesterday by the power lines down the road from me and i was hititng it in 2nd gear..

i busted my nuts then i quit the silly stuff for about 1 hr cause that is how long it took me to get up i just hoped of the 4wheeler while hitting the off switched and just rolled to the ground that was so pain full :(

[punker69q]

I think I can get 7-8ft high under my stock 300ex. The jump is a big kicker that I hit in 5th gear pinned and I dont clear it by 2-3 feet. The suspension bottom really bad and I hurt myself too, but its alot of fun :D

I am not sure exactly how how we where jumping but I think I am right there with U guys.

There is a place that everyone around here rides.It is in the middle of like 2000 acres of farm feilds.And there is just a little circle track there to.If U jump the berm backwards U can really really launch.We where jumping atleast 40-50 foot.Which is alot without a down ramp.But we where jumping over the top of each other I am 6ft 5 so the 400's where getting that high.And I was getting just a little bit lower than them.(they all had aftermarket shocks)


But I also cracked my swingarm.Not on that jump though.

[02REDEXRIDER]

i catch 8 1/2 ft. on a little homemade track easy on my 02 400 EX.i get 15 ft. distance. i tightened the front shocks to the last notch and tightened the rear a little.:cool:

[flyin#5]

on my 200sx i could get 25ft out and 4ft high off a little tiny foot high jump. now i built it up buy i cant go off it cuz my wheel bearing is crap. it sucks bad.

[Zero Z400]

I can get out atleast 5ft. of air on a jump in my yard. I get 6ft of air and 9ft of distance this is onto a 1 foot hill of a landing. It kills but i'm kinda used to it now. I can bottom out the suspension by just jumping on it.

no you can lnd with the machine neutral and no gas and land like you hardly even feel it i really jump oo high i just bottomed the ex suspesion though! woohoo! i cleared a 20ft tabletop jump! but its all technique on how you land really! like bigger the jump put your rear end down more so it hits first then the front will naturally come down and it won hurt its a accquired skill!just keep practcing and youll surprise your buddies! like the ones that live aways away from ya then when the come with there yz 250's kx 80's and yz,85s you can pull out the xr 200 with stifffend up suspension and the ex and start out jumpin them its the greatest!!! you should really try it!:macho :macho trust me its awesome and you shut up your buddies how they say your quad is a slug and how if i jump up and down i could beat the quad jumpin! lol :devil :devil :devil

[Live2Ride300]

I bottomed out on this jump...

[Live2Ride300]

and this one...

Me and rdmex went riding yesterday and i hit a 35 footer, i was about 5 1/2 ft in hte air, and all you heard when i landed was a big CLANK from the suspension bottoming out.
