Kirkpatricks Bike Mods?

[Winterfreak]

Wondering if Kirkpatrick is running a "race" 300 or a "standard" 300. If it is a standard 300 what mods does the engine, timing, reeds, suspension, etc have if any over the stock bike?

The same goes for all the factory guys riding the 250. Are these consumer ediotions or well tweaked not yet imported "Race" versions?

If I remember right Cole rides a 250 ...

Cole rides a 250 Six Days with a 2K2 ignition.

I had a long chat with him at the enduro in TN and he really likes the bike. He runs stock 13/48 gearing as well.

From a drooler's perspective, here's what I saw on Cole's bike.

Leo Vince silencer.
TTX fork inserts.
TTX rear shock.
Brembo front caliper.
OEM expansion pipe.
Enduro Engineering rear caliper mount/ disk guard.
Photo of headlight instead of actual headlight in front plate.
MAXXIS tires.
Acerbis foot peg gaiters.

Gas Gas man has it pretty dialed. I am riding a 250 six days edition. Ignition is stock. Everything is stock on the motor except for the flywheel, I am running a lighter one. I also run the Rekluse EXP Manual clutch. Gearing is stock for the majority of races, if it's really tight I will run a 49.

The bike is great out of the box guys, I'm really happy with everything! I focus more on the suspension on the gas gas, and every other bike I've ever raced (those oranges things), rather than trying to make a wheelie machine.

Cole,

If you don't mind what are you running your rear sag at? I've got mine at 108-110 in full gear, any less than that and the bike tends to stinkbug.
