    shift lever on 2000 XC300

    I got a rear brake lever from a 09 YZ and it does not fit. I will need to add a bushing to fit to the gasser pivot post, and lenghten it. My gasser brake lever is in decent shape. Im just going to ru it. I really just want a good shift lever that i dont have to tighten up every time I ride it...

    Lectron / Smartcarb

    I was running a Lectron on my 14 KTM XC300. It ran MUcH better than the stock carb and got better fuel mileage. Replaced that with a Smartcarb and its amazing! better than FI. Haven't ran it enough to report fuel mileage. I put the Lectron on my 2000 Gas Gas XC300 and its a whole new bike! I...

    adding a fan to a 2000 XC300

    My friend gave me a brand new trail tech universal fan kit. I'd like to throw it on my 2000 XC300 gasser. My original stator recently crapped out and I replaced with one out of a 2010 KTM 300 XCW. Works great. Big fat spark and bright headlight. Is the lighting output AC like the original...

    2001 rear number plates

    I have a 2000 XC300. It has the 2 piece airbox rear number plate so that means it has been converted to 01 and up plastics? Is that correct? I would like to put new BLUE rear number plates on it. Anyone know where I can buy them?

    ignition timing on a 2000 XC300

    just an update. The stator was the problem for the weak spark. Apparently it can pass all the multi meter test and run fine after being started and still be bad. Threw in a new stator for a 2010 KTM 300XCW. Big fat spark at kicking speeds. starts eaiser, runs the same. Thanks for the help guys.

    ignition timing on a 2000 XC300

    I kinda thought stators either work or don't work. My bike runs great. The lighting coil definitly works well. if the coil that gives voltage to the CDI is bad wouldn't it flunk the multimeter test?

    ignition timing on a 2000 XC300

    Got the plate in what I think is the correct position. My spark at kicking speeds looks very weak. The ONLY WAY the bike will start hot or cold is to "rabbit" kick it over as fast as I can. Ushally lights after 3 of 4 fast kicks. It idles and runs great after I get it started. stator passed all...

    ignition timing on a 2000 XC300

    thanks for sharing that link. My stator is different than the one pictured. It has the wires coming in from the 1 o clockish position. Would the pick up timing be the same? I assume not.

    ignition timing on a 2000 XC300

    I took my stator apart to inspect and clean for a no spark problem. I did not mark the position of the backing plate because I assumed there were marks on the case to line it back up. Ya know like every other motor on the face of the planet........ I later found out there is a oblong shaped...
