The May 2009 Dirt Bike has a shootout of the GasGas 300, KTM 300 and Husky 300 2 strokes.
Dirt Bike continues to drink the orange kool-ade.
DB had a hard time believing the GasGas could be so close to the KTM. In their mind the GG hasn't changed in 10 years.
They really liked the GG engine.
They said the GG was more nimble than the KTM, even though it outweighed the KTM by 17 lbs (237 vs 220).
They gave the KTM suspension the nod - you wonder where they actually ride?
The KTM was the declared the winner because it had an e-start.
They picked the Husky over the GG since the Husky was $1000 lower priced.
It is like the news media - you have to factor in the bias.
