2014 vs 2015 300
I am looking at the listed specifications on the 2014 300 and 2015 300, both kick start models. I dont see much difference. Looks like same suspension setup, carb etc.. Are there any significant upgrades to the 15 that I am missing.
I hope to purchase one or the other in the next month or so. Thanks for any comments or insite. |

externally adjustable power valve is the most obvious thing I remember

I thought I read somewhere they put different valving in the forks? I could be cross referencing brands though, I've been reading alot about changes for new models coming out now.

Swingarm painted silver on the 2015. Both 2014 and 2015 have the die cast engine cases.

The cases are still sand cast, the covers are die cast, this is a good thing, sand cast cases are strong, the covers are just covers.

15 comes with Trail Tech and what looks to me like a better seat cover material
