sherpa325 Posted December 17, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2003 Thanks for the replys, do the 300's have the flat slide carbie? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtlaw1 Posted December 18, 2003 Report Share Posted December 18, 2003 The 03 300 did not have the flat side carb ,Not sure on the 04. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spinner Posted December 18, 2003 Report Share Posted December 18, 2003 (edited) The 04 300 pro comes with the round slide carb. You can put the flatslide on it and it really wakes it up,big torque and quicker revs. :santa1: Edited December 18, 2003 by spinner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve fracy Posted December 18, 2003 Report Share Posted December 18, 2003 Not too many people took much heed in the fact that Raga rode that last couple of Outdoor WTC's last year with the 300 motor! With the flat slide carb and some other mod's the 300 can be made to rev just like the 280, but also have the advantages of the big-bore! I would think that it has something for everyone! :santa1: Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtt Posted December 19, 2003 Report Share Posted December 19, 2003 Now Steve, how'd you pick that out? You've got a good eye my freind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outlaw dave Posted December 19, 2003 Report Share Posted December 19, 2003 Sherpa - I had the only GG 300 out in Canada this past summer - It is a fantastic bike, but you do need to do two small mods to improve the starting. Please email direct at daverhodes@shaw.ca and I will tell you the secret. This is the bike that I took to the top of Joss Mountain in British Columbia ( Pictures were on the TA site and are still on the Trials Canada site) The bike has lots of power for any rider - Steve Fracy rode mine which was fitted with the slow throttle. - The round slide carb works great and the jets are cheaper than the flat slide units. I sell Beta - Sherco and Gas Gas - so get to ride most of the new models during the season - buy a 300 and you will love it. Please note the 2004 comes with different forks but there is nothing wrong with the 2003 stock Gasser units, Just back off the preload for break-in....aye Outlaw Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sherpa325 Posted December 21, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2003 Thanks again for all the replys, I did notice on Todo Trial [a couple of weeks ago] that they had an article on the Indoor Trial Des Nations- the article stated that Ragas bike had a different clutch in it and if I have understood the translation the bike had also been 'cut' to make it launch better. PS I have been able to ride a friends 250 03 Pro and I must admit I am not that keen on the bike[basically not much low to mid range power compared to my 321] however the light weight is appealing. No one around here has a 300, the best bike I have ridden to date is an 04 290 sherco, heaps of power right off idle, revs cleanly ,and suspension is a big improvement on earlier models.
