ive seen a 300ex with a 400 motor in it. it was in the letters section of dirtwheels couldnt really tell it was a 400ex motor at a glance ill look for it and ill tell you the issue and the page and i might try and scan it at my friends house next time i go over there. good luck i think itd be cool but only if you had a nice suspension setup on your 300 already other wise id just trade up but thats JMO good luck man and ill try and find that issue.

400EX motor in a 300EX has been done before.

Just get a 400ex, bigger in size so you wont out grow it.

Better feel to it as well.

yea well i like 300ex's and all i do is stunt, i like the shorter stance, and i like the 300ex frame better, i'd rather replace a grab bar than a sub-frame....sorry but i would rather just have a 400ex motor, plus to be the only one around my area' w/ one

yea you would be the only person in the area with one but thats so not practical at all. its gonna cost you more to buy the engine and mod it for the 300 frame than it would be to buy a used 450

NO! I think the trike is worth more than your motor by far.you would not want to spend that much extra cash to pull the trike apart anyway.it would be a waste of a good trike.
