Sorry. I had to go out to the OT. I haven't really read it yet.

Updated!

They tested the EC250F, 450F 250 and the 300.

They loved the 250F and it was their favorite. They liked how there was no "grey wire" and no throttle stop. They said the Keihin carb was "jetted correctly and not hampered by leanness." They also said this about the 250f, "very ridable, ready to race, and frankly, we voted it GasGas's most excinting bike of 2010".

They didn't care for the race version because it was to stiff. They did say that they didn't have time to play around with the suspension.

All bikes "felt light and responsive, easy to steer, and plenty fast for what we were doing."

Definitely overwhelmingly positive.

Trailrider always gives a fair and honest opinion, and has been testing at least one GG a year since the GGNA days. All opinions have been favorable.

I want to try a 250f so so bad it hurts.. if it gets DOT it would be the ultimate..
