Did Honda make any mechanical changes on the 300Ex from 1993 (first year they came out) to present?

I know plastic and seatcovers had different colors, but anything else on the bike that has changed over the years?

You 100% positive? Read this online:

"So let's fast-forward now to 2008. The TRX300EX has received several refinements, suspension tweaks and cosmetic changes since its inception in 1993..."

I'm looking to see if I can find my old 1993 300Ex brochure.

it got new plastics and thats it. i looked at it at my dealership, frame shocks axle etc everything is the same. maybe some tuning but nothing major.

From my memory, didn't the carb go from 29mm to 32mm at some time? If so, I'd consider that a decent change.

the newer model 07-present has a different reverse set up. The old style had the lever on the clutch to pull then you had to pull up on the reverse shifter (left side) now there is only a hand switch on the right just below the tank height. All you do is turn it. A nice upgrade.
