I personaly dont no how the 300ex handles in stock length, I know they have a fairly short wheel base. I just purchased a Laeger's +1 1/4" swingarm,,,, but 2" is alot. But yeah I'd say go for the +2!

I have a + 2" extended swing arm on my 300ex, and it works out great...... Helps keep the front end down a lot!!!!

Your stock rear hydraulic brake line should still be long enough..... But I highly recommend the stainless steel brake lines over the stockers.
You will need to get a new chain with more links. Other than that, I can't think of anything else you will need. Hopefully your new swingarm will come with the same skid plate mounting pattern so you can use your existing skid plate. Also, I assume you removed your parking brake mechanism. If not, you may wish to do so, because I don't think the cable will be long enough with the extended swing arm. All you will need then is the cover to replace the parking brake mechanism.
