A second spacer between the reed block and the engine will make power delivery much more linear, a lot like a trials bike, but you will loose some mid and top end power. As mentioned, going a touch richer on the air screw is less dramatic but effective fix.

I learnt at training, counter intuitive though it is, that riding much more aggresively in slick ground conditions increases control over trying to 'feel' for rear wheel grip with very small throttle openings. However, for us mere mortals, plenty of throttle on a 300 through the trees isn't going to end well. For myself, the answer lay in down sizing to a 200, easier to concentrate on riding with the smaller bike bike, instead of fighting for control with the 300.
