After reading everyones comments on the choke removal I decided to do it myself. Everyone seemed to recommend to remove the carb but it seemed easy enough without it removed so I did it without removing and it seemed to work out fine. I didn't get the little metal that everyone says fall in and the screws came right out. I recommend just using that cheap little screwdriver that comes with the EX toolkit. It was like a 10-15min job from start to finish. Just thought that I would let everyone know that it isn't that difficult. Also I live in AZ so that 38 pilot that is stock doesn't seem like to be to big of a prob even in the coldest days. I will post if it seems like it made a difference. Also I just ground down those huge welds on the headpipes. I can't believe honda would do that. I hope it makes a difference since I am goin to the local dunes here on Sat. Hopefully those craptors will be wonderin what is goin on.
Great post knighttime!
I will start the work tomorrow.

no problem knightime, im gonna do this mod to my 300
Any thoughts on doing this in wisconsin? It gets a mite cold here in the winter (we are having a mild winter, and it is about 15 degrees right now...ahhh) I was thinking of going to a 42 pilot jet anyway, if I did this, would it be best to go to a 45? Before I swiced to synthetic, the dang thing wouldnt start unless it was over 50 degrees...not in california anymore.

I've been thinking about removing the choke. Okay, so you have to upsize the pilot....it needs it anyway right? So that takes care of most of the starts in regular weather. So, for when its really cold out and it is going to be tough to start, why not remove the plastic or rubber cap that the choke shaft came out of and either squirt a little starting fluid in there or get a little syringe of gas (a little dangerous now) of gas in there. Just to get it to hit a few times..... that may be enough to get it running on those cold trailer rides to the trails! Anybody agree?
