Rookie question, what are the basic differences?

Sorry 2018, really considering a new scooter.

EC -Enduro bike, has lights, horn,GasGas branded expansion chamber and FMF Silencer

XC - Cross Country bike, No light, no horn, just slightly stiffer springs, comes with full FMF expansion pipe and silencer.

Very few differences really. The big difference is lights or no lights.

Just noticed your location. If you are ever in the Niagara Region and want a quick test ride of an '18 GP250 my bike is always available to anyone who wants to buy from Lang's.

Dirt Bike Test rode both and Jimmy did a nice job describing the differences in feel. Nice work for just a quick impression.

Thanks folks. The magazines reviews vary on the suspension differences. Has anyone rode both, really how much stiffer is the XC, could you make it softer by the clickers alone?

And I happened to see confirmation that it was shipped over the weekend. Should see it likely end of this week.
