A couple of things I noticed riding my 2011 EC300
The e-starter sometimes squeals like a stuck pig, but that seems to go along with the squealing clutch. Not sure if either or both of these are normal. I have a Rekluse Core EXP which is funny, they said that some people try using the Rekluse to quite the stock clutch. Not sure what to do about the e-starter, may take it apart and make sure that it is lubed correctly and not in a bind - seems to have started squealing after getting hot. I need to let my dealer know not to over tighten the side case, it was so snug that I couldn't work the kick-starter. loosened them up 1/4 turn and that seems to have fixed that.
Any thoughts on the squealing bits would be appreciated. On the upside, I don't think that I have EVER been though sand whoops quite so fast Rob in Katy |

I have the exp in my 11 300 and I have never heard the clutch squeal at all.
I am starting to get comfortable on my GG but the one place I am still much faster on my KTM is large sand whoops. |

Is that jeff that had the ktm 450sx that got stuck with a dead battery helping me out in the gully at one of the STORM races? Just asking, I heard he just got a 300?

clutch squeal
my solution to clutch squeal (only under serious abuse!) was to fit a 12 front sprocket. Still top 120+ km/h but bottom is just that little bit easier in the tech stuff.
Now need to sort out the jetting, definitely a little rich

Read this thread[/QUOTE It seems the theme is to drill more holes. I wonder if this would work on the Rekluse, more importantly I would if this would cause issues with the Rekluse? |

Where are you located and who did you buy your bike from? Are you close enough to let him the change the clutch out on your bike with a new one? I would like to have your old clutch to see if we can figure out the problem. Clay |

You should come out and ride some TXORR races. It would be nice to have more gassers there. |
