shadetree 5,468 Posted December 4, 2019 never have figured out why in the world some one on a atv would want to know how fast they are going ?, let me guess, so when they are all sitting around the camp fire at deer camp, one say's '' ha !..I was doing 40 mph when it hit that tree '' !, buddy speaks up, how do you know that '' ?, first guy says..well..the speedo said so '' !..lol.

Fishfiles 17,154 Posted December 4, 2019 I think some want to know how fast they can go top end for bragging rights , " my bike is faster than your " kind of thing !!! ------- my 450 w/34.5% reduction does 19mph with a strong wind from behind , never did clock the 300 w/54% Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mac102004 418 Posted December 4, 2019 Logs miles/km for service intervals for one thing, ATV’s road legal in some countries for another. Lots of trails here have posted speed limits. My best guess based on the fact that every new ATV sold comes with a speedometer now, and have had them for some time now, suggests to me that you may be in the minority Shade. Now as far as the 300’s go, the speedometer being somewhat uncommon, not a factory installed item but rather an option, there is some element of collectibility to it. I know I have 2 complete NOS kits and another used one. Sam is the speedo to fit a 2wd or 4wd. As you know the 2wd used a longer cable than the 4wd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeepwm69 6,618 Posted December 4, 2019 That thing in KM/hr given the source? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toodeep 1,716 Posted December 4, 2019 I've seen these things bring some really good money so if you sell it cheap just make sure its someone that will use it. If they are just going to flip it then you might as well make the money. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeepwm69 6,618 Posted December 4, 2019 I agree with Toodeep. You also have a limited audience here till the site traffic picks up. Might want to get a value from the guys here and then list it on bookface. With a kid on the way you need to maximize what you get out of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_Wilson_™ 5,885 Posted December 4, 2019 I'd only snatch one up, if i was doing a custom project like my 2000 (plumb eat up with hondline parts) 300, otherwise.... I'd pass i too agree with Toodeep. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toodeep 1,716 Posted December 5, 2019 @SamUK post some pics/details and let's see if we can give to a rough idea of what it might bring, both hoarder (some will understand that) and user prices. If everything looks good and it might bring decent money you can start over and we can hide this thread. I can link it to potential buyers and possibly new members on FB. I'm just trying to help you out but if you have someone here wanting it and will use it I prefer things be done that way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wheeler 2,278 Posted December 5, 2019 For those of you who remember, I kept trying to achieve a top speed of 55-60mph on my 300 like my last build. I've yet to accomplish that feat. So I can understand why someone may want to know how fast they are going. Many people use their phone with GPS now to track their speed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fishfiles 17,154 Posted December 6, 2019 Wheeler , drop a 450 clutch basket and primary in your 300 , you might hit 70-75 , it should be a 14% overdrive Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toodeep 1,716 Posted December 6, 2019 Someone in the past did that on a 2x4. I can't remeber who though or what he got out of it for speed. He even had duals built for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SamUK 83 Posted December 6, 2019 Thanks for the replies folks.. To be honest I listed it here because I know it's not a factory fitted item over your side of the water whereas here they all came stock with a speedometer. I'd like it to be used for sure not just flipped but if there's any interest from regulars here we can work something out for sure. @Wheeler If you want it for your 300 build you can have it if you pay shipping. I'll take some photos tomorrow for you all and post them up 🙂 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wheeler 2,278 Posted December 6, 2019 PM sent Sam. @Fishfiles I did pick up a 450 basket from Dicks Cycles. Then once I figured out the timing was off & gained top end & power, I sold it to a local used parts salvage yard here locally. I'm fast enough.. lol 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
