I think i just stumbled upon a wicked deal...
The guy working on my brother's quad let me try a 300ex he had for sale. I didn't get specifics, it looked to be a late nineties, early two thousands. It still gets better. It had a widened rear axel, high compression piston (ported and polished), full exhaust (I forget the brand), and a few aftermarket accessories like nerf bars and bumpers. There were no visible leaks that I could see, and after I took it for a spin it ran really well.
The motor was just redone by the guy and he is getting older and doesn't ride as much, so it is definitely not abused. I bought my current quad from the same guy and have had no problems with that either. With all these mods, the guy was lookong for 1500 to 2000. I know that most stock 300ex's in good condition can go for that, so it seems like a good deal. I would only make the guy an offer if i do more research, look it over with a fine tooth comb, and move a bunch of truck parts and other stuff i have lying around.
