I decided that I would post a build thread of my 2011 Husqvarna WR300. During a recent thread on wheels/tires for right hand drive bikes, I both had and received a lot of questions. I race harescrambles generally and ride single track woods where I live. The bike was showing some wear so I decided to do a group up build. New bearings, top end, plastics, powdercoat (frame was rusting by the steering head and typical spots where the boots wear through the paint. So I wanted to make a thread with pictures and parts lists.
I'll also preface this that I'm an average "B" rider and average mechanic. I've always worked on my own cars, bikes, but this being my 2nd 2stroke bike, never actually done a "top end". I've rebuild numerous Subaru motors, SBC, etc... Hopefully this thread can help others with similar questions as me. I'll show a parts list, number and pricing when I can.
Goals: Woods bike, plated, dual sport. I am a casual competitor in the ECEA, WNYOA, and NEOC series in the tri-state area. I attend about 10-15 races a year. I ride with safety first, since I can't afford to miss work, but will also say that if there's a jump, ledge, long straightaway, I'll be the one to go first and try to wheelie the whole thing. I wanted a fun, reliable and good looking bike. And something different that most people don't have. Everyone has a KTM, or Jap bike. I ride the street frequently to explore the woods around the house. There's not many placed to ride in NJ, but I'm fortunate enough to live near tons of state property which is preserved. We occasionally find lookouts which we can view NYC from.
The first picture is when I brought her home. The previous owner took great care (is a fellow member) and did all the right mods. Flywheel weight, carb, breather hoses re routed, upgraded coil, plugged stator hole/breather, etc...
I low sided the bike int he woods about a month into owning her and cracked the front fender in half. I've NEVER had this happen before. I did some research and ended up buying a 449/511 fender. Bolted right up and I modified the stock light (cut the bottom tabs off) so that it would fit. Works great as you can see in the pics. Currently looking for a 449/511 headlight shroud/light for the bike. Also picked up the Pro Circuit pipe/silencer from Hall's.
The other pic is from a mischief night moto through NYC. Awesome time. She's the one in the middle.
As of November 14' the bike is apart and almost ready for powdercoat. I have the Warp 9's on order (essentially KTM wheels flipped over). I'll post pics when they arrive. I'm compiling my parts list which consists of black UFO plastics, Magura Hyro clutch, new bearings all around, powdercoat, radiators (ebay) and guards, tires, etc... Here's how she sits....
FYI, since I don't have a garage, I built a 7x12 enclosed trailer and added everything I would need, battery, etrack, cabinets, etc, etc, etc... So she's occupying the trailer for the winter.
Stay tuned....

get clear perspex panels so we can see it all.
