I was waiting till Pyramid plastics did one as they are usually cheap enough to chuck in't bin if it goes wrong, think most will be mainland EU as they are very popular over there.

Two things to watch for don’t fill the tank right to the brim and make sure you get the fuel cap on right it’s very easy to start to turn the cap before you have it in the right position and then it is a right pain to get off mine was like that when I got it and it took some getting off

Couple of the new 300 owners have changed the rear shocks. All gone for the same make. It's on the Maxi Muppets Facebook site.

Yes, I contacted YSS in Taiwan and they directed me to Firefox (sole dealer in the UK for YSS). After a few conversations with Firefox they managed to find similar shocks for the Xmax 300 (£220, but without the rebound). I've got them, ready to fit to my Xmax 300 in a few weeks (Tim has already fitted them and is very pleased with the result 8-)). Firefox did put them on eBay, but they have now sold out (the ones in the link are still available on eBay, but they are over £400!). If anyone wants a set they should contact Firefox direct. I believe that this will be a popular upgrade.


Yep much better than the OE icon_thumbs_up.gif
