Great looking bike!! Nice aftermarket items as well.

I would recommend your first upgrade be... Remove the poly subframe and install the new all Aluminum subframe!!

Does gas gas pay for that?

No - but maybe you can work a deal with the dealer....That is if they are a GasGas dealer?

" I felt like the 450r wanted to rip my arms off every time I cracked the throttle."
+1 that. Exactly why I sold my CRF450R and now ride an EC300.

450 4t and a 300 2t are not even close when it comes to power management and delivery!

Is it congrats yet, or are you still considering ?

Awesome looking bike, there's nothing like 2T power and fun on the trails!

Well, shoot, don't know what to do... I spoke to the owner (it is a consingment), great guy! I was hoping to hit a certain price point, but can't quite get there.

I talked to a gas gas dealer that has a 5 hour 2012 Gas Gas 200 (pictured below). Essentially brand new.

With this 300 I'd get ALOT of aftermarket goodies, well worth the $2k+ over the 200, but it is just that initial cash outlay that HURTS, you know?

Soooo, what to do?
