Raced my first scramble on the new GasGas yesterday. Plus 40 class. It was awesome how hard you could hit stuff with the KYB. The bike tracks great and turns awesome. Supper stable on the long straight choppy stuff. The one place I did struggle was the sections with 2-3 inch embedded rock sections. Kind of like a river bed with slimy washboard rocks for 50 feet. But I have always sucked in these sections though. It was better than the Sherco open chamber in these sections for sure. I'm sure if I upped the spring rates for my girth it would sit a bit higher and give me some more supple range at the start of the stroke. What great working bike!
