Ok today my 300 starting making this really annoying knocking sound, like when i'd pull a wheelie and let it down it would make a loud noise i found its the bottom shock bushing it has a ton of play in it, BUT i can't find anyplace that sells replacements...:confused: i see them for the 400's but not for the 300s and then on service honda on the parts diagrams they don't sell just the bushings, what gives? lol mabye a reason to upgrade to some new shocks:macho (haha and if they can be replaced, mabye its still time to just get new ones:blah

I've got no problem getting front shock bushings for my brothers 300ex at my dealer, and in most mags:huh

just wrap the bushing in some electrical tape and grease it up and jam it back in, good as new

what i always do is pull out the bushing take a stick welder and make 3 beads down the bushing ...space them out evenly it doesnt matter if the beads look pretty or not...then take a grinder and smooth them down a little at a time until they will fit back into the shock...nice an tight
