Clearance of the Ninja 300 stock exhaust

dino74 · August 18th, 2013, 09:31 PM

Does the 300 stock exhaust have clearance issues at the track?

I know first hand the 250 does and was curious if the 300 also had the same problem.

JBinSD · August 19th, 2013, 08:51 AM

Only clearance issue I had was when I low-sided and took us both out. . . (sorry again) Otherwise had no issues, although I switched to a full Yoshi system right after.

Hmm, Dino's been asking a lotta 300 questions, do we have a new foal in the stable?

Thx, I'm not in any rush to start racing it, got a lot of work to be done.

The forks are bent and I hoping the frame is still straight.

So is that the one that was on Craigslist for $3K OBO that I was trying to get? If you come across another crashed one let me know I'm still looking.

No, its not $3K one. I offered that guy 2.5K but he never responded. I think it must have sold because I haven't seen the ad in a while.

This one was in Santa Barbara for $1200. Some lady made a U-turn right in front of him. I couldn't pass it up.

I'll keep an eye out for crashed 300s and let you know if I see any.

YOU PAID HOW MUCH!?

****.

Sadly, Dean (on his 250) was faster than me (on my 300).

I hope ya get it dialed in for this season, I'm sure you'll kick some serious azz on it.

Forget that Open stuff and break out the R6. Or better yet fight fire with fire and go get a 300.

I had sent him a text asking if it ran. Got a reply back that same day saying that it did. Send him another text saying I'd like to look at it the next day never heard from him again. That's two crashed ones that I've found that I didn't get.

I feel like I just got my 250 dialed in and I hate that feeling of racing a bike where something doesn't feel right. I'm going to continue to race the 250 and slowly work on getting the 300 tuned. I'm guess earliest would be next year.

Thats my game plan, to buy every crashed 300 in Socal. So Joel and I will be riding 40hp 300s and everyone else will be on 30hp 250s

That won't work sooner or later I'm going to find one.

Then it can be myself, you and Joel riding the 40hp 300s.

Same here, let's hold hands when we race

Dmj_88 · September 1st, 2013, 01:59 PM

I know the 250 had clearance issues with the kickstand mount, does anyone know if the 300 has the same issues or does it not hang low enough?

The kickstand mount is a lot more track friendly on the 300. It doesn't stick out nearly as much
