I really like my 99 EC200. I would love to have 07/08 200, but I would be disapointed if the newer 200 did not perform (motor wise)like my 99 EC200.
I do have limited time on a XC 250. My riding buddy, rides a EC300. We do swap bikes, and I find myself getting lazy on the trail with the 300, the 300 really does not suite my riding style. With the 200 I like to point and shoot, brake drag slide turns, keeping her wound up and hang on! The midrange is hit is pretty smooth, but it will let you know when it comes on the pipe! I am pushing 46 years young and I am a die hard 2 stroke guy. Long live the 200

I have an 05 MC 125 and a 03 FSE 450. I have also ridden the 200ec ,250mc, 250 ec, 300ec. I think that the 250 was a lot of fun and a good do it all bike. Would love to try a 07 450 as the 03 was a hoot of a trail bike. But if I was buying a new one I'd have to lean towards a 250.

Well I am now a fan of the 250's! I loved my 04 300 but the torque pulled on my arms pretty good. The 250 just plain rips and is easy on the arms. Wait a minute my bike is a 275.

My last two stroke was a KTM 300. I loved that thing and thought the torque was magic. Then I got a KTM 525XCW (sill have it) which is awesome anywhere you can go really fast, but I missed the snap of weight of a two stroke in the woods so recently got a EC250 for a woods bike. I thought I wanted another 300, but to tell you the truth, I think I like the lack of bottom end better. I feel like it's a good compromise between a 200 and 300 because it's got plenty of go-fast power but the soft bottom end (compared to a 300) keeps me fresh longer and I don't get arm pump quite as much. I guess it's a case of less is more, or the porrige is not to hot or not too cold but is just right, something like that.

11' 300?
I rode an 11 250 that was awesome and worked really well.. I can only imagine the 300 would be even better. That would be my pick. I have an 01 300 that I bought used and a bit ratty but it still worked great.. It's a little small for me as I'm 6'1" with extra long monkey arms. The 11' 250 I rode had a topclamp in a forward position and that was great. My 300 has wp forks and a topclamp with the bars too far rearward for me. My Beta 300 got ripped off so I'll be going back to my gasgas 300 for the 2 stroke fix.. and my 82' husky 430 for some vibration fix.. and my Beta 525 for 4 stroke and estart. ... but I'd pick the 2011 Gasgas 300ec as a best gasgas.. I'm wondering how the new one is though.
