Working on a ET300.....not sure if I should pull that black paint down a bit on the top part of the hood......that would keep the white on just the sides.....hmmmmm....:confused:

Ya, I think I'm gunna keep the paint like that....my son is happy with it.........ok, NEXT I'm tackling the ET340. Pulling air box (throw a POD or K&N filter on it), may pull the oil pump - oh, throwing in a new ET340 engine then gunna tinker with the one I pulled...also gunna tinker with the exhaust since we have a couple extra ones from part sleds....oh, I also have a 94C comet clutch (just need the bolt for it) and then raising the suspension 2 inches and then repainting that hood.....getting rid of the flames.....hope I can get my wife to ride this winter! or not.

Hi Guys,
Just joined the forum! Looks like lots of good activity. Found this chat about Enticers and thought I'd ask....I do some vintage racing. So far have just been doing the snocross events on my '80 ElTigre 5000. Planning to do some grand prix type races but they have a 400cc engine limit. On the tight tracks some guys have had some good success with the ET300. They say its better than the 340. Any idea why? Is it a different chasis thats lighter or shorter than the 340. Is the 340 much more powerful? What about dropping a 340 in the 300 chasis? Any advice would really be apreciated. What do you think would be the hot setup? Thanks

Nice Resto!
If I could find an old Enticer I'd probably set it up for oval racing and give it a whirl in the vintage fan-cooled clases (like out at the Earl Grey races on February 19)
Actually, the Enticers used to do pretty well in Stock E back in the day (below is an NWSA circuit photo circa ~1981)
However, they quite often found themselves chasing a couple of feathers on a Jag! lol

Hey Guys :d New to the site after I stumbled upon this.. First off to everyone that posted some pictures, WOW! You all have some nice looking machines! I've got a 1980 Enticer 340 and was just wondering if anyone could tell me what K&N filter would fit best in replacement of the airbox. Thanks in advance guys, Colin.

Sorry if this thread is to old to post on but thought this would be a good place to ask my question does anyone know if a 340 enticer motor will fit into a 300 chassis with minimal fabrication it would be greatly appreciated thank you
