2014 GG EC300R is home
What a beautiful bike! Got a chance to put some miles on her last Saturday as well. Paul up at County Cycle has done his Woods Weapon work on this bike. He also replaced the springs for my weight.
This is my first GasGas. I find the geometry suits me well. Love the way this bike tracks - very confidence inspiring. I am just over 6' tall with a 32" inseam and I am on the balls of my feet. She sits tall in the saddle. I found the suspension to be almost exactly right - way to go Paul! The front forks are making it a long ways through the stroke. I didn't slam it into anything too hairy, but some smaller jumps made me think some clicker adjustments are likely in order. This is also my first 300cc 2T. I'm amazed at how this engine lugs! It is a tractor. The bike also has a Rekluse EXP Core 3.0 on it - that is taking some getting used to for sure. My initial inclination is to adjust it so that it engages faster. The submount Scott's Steering Damper is very trick looking. I did have a battery cable vibrate loose. Thinking of throwing a lockwasher under the nut. Any other suggestions? Reminds me why I would be very hesitant to buy a bike with e-start only. Lots of ooohs and aaahs at the trail head - I think the KTM guys were jealous. ;-) I really can't say enough good things about Paul and County Cycle. He's a stand up guy - that's really important when you are buying something like this over a long distance. He never hesitated to take my call, and worked with me the whole time she was being built. He even threw in a few nice surprises. Looking forward to racing Esmerelda at my next HS event in 10 days. Next up: Remove the headlight and tail light, get some numbers on her, and then prepare for RB head work based on a squish measurement when we break from racing for the hot summer months. I'm convinced that this is an excellent mod. Hell maybe I'll send in the carb while I'm at it as well!

These are one of my favorite looking GG bikes along with a 2010 Nambo.
