WTB: EC or XC 200. Preferably 2007 or newer.

Hello, I have been recommended to buy a GasGas EC or XC 200. I live near Seattle, WA, BUT do not underestimate how far I will travel to pick it up. I can make a road trip out of it and head to California, Utah, Colorado, or even further if it's a good deal. Thank you! -Ron 626 392 Two 9 One 9.

Actually, I will consider 200 bikes older than 07.

Shipping way cheaper then a road trip these days if you find a seller willing to ship. My 12' shipped from MI for $250.00

Thanks for the tip! What parcel delivery companies ship something that big, and what do they use as a box? I suppose a motorcycle shop could package it up for the seller?

Just saw this one on Craigslist.
2012 xc 200
And you only need to drive south on I5 about 60 miles to pick it up.....

Ohh, man, I've been keepin' my eye on that one like it was my daughter and she just turned 16(to keep other people from buying it.. not the other disgusting way ) I finally got into Tasky's to take a look at her in person... BUT.. that was when I brought in my new (to me) 2004 EC200 that I got a really good deal on 2 states south of here. I never knew Oregon was such a long state to drive across.... Thanks for the heads up! I wish I had that '12! Beautiful bike and Tasky's shop is one of a kind.

Sorry, these are just the pics from the Craigslist ads. My phone's camera has not been working for updated pics. All I have to say is, "WOW", these bikes look different in person! Especially when my first introduction to it is the previous owner riding down to meet me and hearing the 2 stroke on the pipe! It looks like it has the mounts for a steering stabilizer, FMF Fatty pipe and probably Tubrine Core silencer, and some other goodies that I can't think of right now... We'll see how the bike looks in a month or 2...
