| 300EX Corner: New Bars and Stabilizer...Factory Fit and Finish | Wow what a feeling... | ||
 You know the deal...your 300EX has been upside down a couple times...your bars have been bent too many times to mention...your friends talk about the "Utility ATV" plastic across your handle bars...your grips are worn out...need I say more??? |
Just returned from a good ride today in Waldorf, MD. And good for several reasons...good because I haven't been on my ATV in weeks due to school, weather, a friends Banshee won't start in winter, and too many other excuses to mention -- I'm just glad to of gotten out. Secondly because I just installed new Renthal bars and a PEP steering stabilizer on my '98 Honda 300EX...and the difference was down right incredible. What makes it even better is a hot tip from my friend Donnie down at Don's ATV Service about using handle-bar plastic off of a '87 Honda 250X which will allow you to pop in your stock key/ignition and maintain your stock head light assembly. I had heard from many folks who won't even ride (especially aggressively) without a steering stabilizer. Now I finally know what they've been talking about. The next best thing about this upgrade is that it looks much better than the stock plastic setup on '93-2000 300EX's. In additional to ordering a set of Renthal Fourtrax bend bars and a PEP Steering Stabilzer from Moto-Man (which I received in 2 days - wow!) I went down to the local Honda dealer and ordered the '87 250X handle bar plastic and the plastic headlight cover and metal headlight holder for a '98 300EX (they both had been hammered by roll-overs). Spent a few hours throwing everything on...then adjusting again...and then finally it was time for a road test. Got to love it!!! I figured this was good information for other 300EX owners... | ||
 It all comes apart and will go back together...just take your time. |

 A perfect fit for the key! You utilize all of your old hardware off the old plastic...thanks again to Don's ATV Service for the great tip!! |

 You got to love Honda...everything fits...the key...the old head-light assembly...beautiful! |

 Don't forget the Steering Dampener - Stabilizer. Everyone I knew that had one claimed they were the best thing since sliced bread...they are...call up or hit the web and order one today...any serious ATV'er wouldn't ride without one. |

 Look how clean this looks! It is very functional as well...thanks again to Don's ATV Service for the great tip!! |
