Default '13 XC250 Michigan

Hello,
I impulse bought a new Gasser. I have logged 8 hrs on it so far. Other than being tall (what's with that hard-ass seat?) and heavy it seems to be a great hare scramble bike.

I'm currently getting it race ready. Should be a fun season on this Spanish lady!

Cool Mark! This is a surprise for sure! You'll really like the bike. I have no regrets going with the GG as the motor is amazing and handles great.

LOL Yes so I am told my seat is a 2x4 on end..at least the brother in-law tells me that. I must have a ironbutt as yeah its hard but not a huge deal.

I will say probably first bike I ever pay $400 to have a seat made...LOL I'm usually okay with stock motorcycle seats. They could of made it wider.

Oh by the way where in MI. In August I plan to go to TN hope to ride with Clay then off to MI to a wedding...maybe we can ride a bit...you might be jealous though my bike is plated...LOL Oh and NO I'm not riding across country on a 2 stroke...it will be on the hitch carrier.

The hard seat is merely for looks. You should stand up when you ride.

You might be the jealous one - we can ride almost any trail and most roads with an ORV sticker and a working headlight and taillight

I see your sig says Dearborn...I know where that is at. I'll be in the Grand Blanc, Fenton, and Novi areas (wedding is in Royal Oak). I'll be tossing up the dates soon, hope to ride with people at least one day while there. I was a street bike guy when I lived in MI...any trails in lower MI!!!
