Want to increase ground clearance on my 300 ex

[Chazz88]

I wondering if there is a way to increase my ground clearance on my 300ex..im sure there is .. i do a lot of trail riding that is rocky and has small logs and stuff.. is there a kit you can buy? I would like to upgrade the suspension anyway so while im at it id like to raise the height some.The 300ex is new to me and i havent touched anything on it. Is there any adjustment on the stock shocks that are on the quad. any help would be great!!

do that and then drop 1 tooth on the front sproket. the gearing is close to stock and youll have gained 1 inch of ground clearence.

Don't they come stock with 22's?

yeah they to but the stocks are rounder so the whole tire isnt flat. when i had my 300 i had itp holeshot xcr 22's and its 1/2 inch higher than the stock size. also change front tires to 22's or 23's. you can also put long travel front shocks on +2 regular travel a arms and it will bring the height up.

Don't do that. It will throw off the geomety of the front end. Your best bet is 22inc rear tires, 23 fronts. and get some good aluminum skid plates for the frame, and swingarm. Then if you do hit something you won't damage anything.

my mechanic told me to do that dude i race pro am i know whats up my sister has a 300ex and he told me to do that stuff for her caus ei had to get that from my sponsors. it doesnt throw any geometory off at all. thats if you put the wrong **** on. trust me.
