FE/FC FX 350 is home.

Hi guys, I picked up ,y new 2017 350 FX yesterday. I'm coming off of a 350 fe. For my riding I think this will work perfect.

No tool kit for this bike? Thought that was strange. I get a plug wrench and 1 open end wrench. I also bought a ton of anodized and carbon part to install. I've noticed that 2 carbon pieces won't be working unless I get more Peet's. So we'll see there. Choke is a bit funky. Location could be better. I can't get my exhaust plug in the muffler with out marking some changes there also. I'm looking forward to working out the forks. And breaking in the motor.

I love the fit and finish of the p3 carbon skid plate.

Did your bike fall over?? Rotate picture or the oil will drain into the head.

I've fallen and can't get up! Lol

it's be fun adding some small touches

i did -1 down on the front and made it easier thru the single track and little more umph

Help me understand with exhaust. My 2015 FE didn't have this (arrester?) that I could see anyway. This thing won't allow me to stick my exhaust plug in. Should I remove it? Can it be removed?

I can't stand the sound of my stock exhaust. Ordered myself an Akrapovic slip on today. I hope that smoothens it out.

Installed. Much better

Maybe you could cut off some of your plug so it doesn't bottom out on the arrester?

I did better. I got rid of the original exhaust and replaced it with a much, much better akrapovic.

How much louder is that over stock?

How much different is the FX from the FE? I thought is was just some mapping changes to make the FX a bit snappier

Here's a pic of the EPA garb that comes on a 2017 FE. Top is an airbox that contains restrictive reeds. Weighs about 2.5 pounds not including the airbox.

It's not much louder but, the over all sound is much improved. A lot lower end throaty noise. It's real nice. It a tad longer than stick as well. Bolts right on with existing hardware.

The new FX are coming with all sorts of parts and pieces from the factory in order to make them legal in 50 states. My 15' had nine if that and was nice. My FX is pretty stripped down. I've heard mapping is different, suspension set up is different as well. nitnsure what else but, again mainly the FX will mimic the FC moto bike.

I have a 17 fx350. I really love the bike but it does seem a little "corked up". It feels like there is more potential there. I think its the air box. I put a street legal kit on it and I was shocked by how sealed up the air box was. I'm coming off a 14 yz250f and it feels like the 250 had a bit more off the bottom. I went down to a 13 tooth for the woods and that made a big improvement for the woods.

Give some serious thought to a flywheel weight. Even 9 oz. makes a noticeable difference in shifting some of the torque towards the bottom end.

Much deeper and cleaner sound. It had a whistle to it before with the stock pipe. Whistle is gone and it sounds great.

Checked out the P3 site. I"m assuming that the 2017 FX and FE 350s are the same part? I couldn't find your skid or one for mine. Do you have the part #?
