    NEW 2007 FMF Gnarly, Q-Stealth, P3 guard

    The Fmf pipe for 07 will not fit years before that. I bought a job lot of 07 parts for my 04 and the pipe does not fit. Even the silencer will not fit as the subframe mounts are different.

    tank plugs

    Hey guys, wondering what you all use for the plugs in the tank that the radiator side plates screw into on older models (04). I've got 1 that is non existent any more and a couple others that are nearly gone. Besides gluing a piece of dowel or similar in there I'm at a loss. TIA

    300 or 250

    Awesome stuff guys thanks heaps for the input. Great points Jakobi thx. By the sounds of it I really should leave it as a 300 due to my riding style and terrain that I like, plus being an older(read unfit/lazy) rider. Think I'll get it running again as a 300 and after a few rides I might drop it...
