[QUOTE="GlennP, post: 107511, member: 18736"] The 300 is a tractor. It makes the same peak power as the 250, but at about 1000 RPM lower, low end is stronger, and doesn't rev out as far. For me (and this is purely personal preferance) the 250 is just right. It can be lugged and still and revs way out if you can't get the next gear. The extra low/mid snap of the 300 is great, but it would probably wear me down faster over the course of an enduro. If I didn't race and just went trail riding, or I had time to stay in better shape, the 300 would be great. I have a selection of sprockets for my 250, and with 13/52 gearing it will torque up anything without clutch abuse. You can do a lot to the bikes to alter power delivery: ignition map, head, reeds, reed spacer, and a selection of flywheel weights. You can also convert a 250 to a 300 with just a cylinder and piston swap (around $500), even uses the same powervalve parts. [/QUOTE]
