2014 Gas Gas EC300R
After finally getting the jetting and suspension sorted nicely on the '11 I decided to go have a ride of a newer model just to see what it was like. The short ride of the '13 model was like a dream come true. I gelled with the bike instantly and fell in love. Overall it was a silly idea, I ended up buying this, a 2014 300
Took possession this afternoon and only had time to look at her for a brief moment before being given my 12 week old daughter while the wife went out for the night, so I haven't done anything other then stare at the moment. One thing I did do was quickly compare the height differences between the '14 and '11. I've always said that if the '11 was one inch higher it'd be perfect, seems they listened because even in stock form with who knows what sags the '14 sits higher by almost that much. --------------------------------------------2011----2014 To bottom of bash plate:------------------320mm--------320mm To top of foot peg:-------------------------380mm--------395mm To top of seat at junction with tank:------925mm-------950mm The bike was pre-delivered to me with a force bash plate/pipeguard combo and force radiator guards. Over the next few days I'll go over it all and remove all the blinkers, tail extension, horn and other non-essential stuff, replace the handlebar choke with a plunger style one, put on some decent hand guards (I crash a lot onto hard rocks), set the sags (although I know I'll need heavier springs) then hopefully take it for a ride. In the meantime, isn't she purdy |
