I recently went from a great fat pig of an XR 600
To an '06 EC 300. The honda design is from the early eighties. Although the honda is a very well put together bike, and still has it's uses, the EC 300 is a far, far better bike in more technical terrain. I struggled to keep up with everyone on more modern bikes on the trail, and the XR was a joke on the track (honda must have paid Scott Summers a lot of money). The Gasser has re- invigorated my enthusiasm for riding.
I was advised to purchase an '05 or '06 because of the switchable ignition and the suspension spec.
