Default Which and Why?

I'm going to be in the market before long for another bike.
I can already tell I am hooked on riding! Nothing wrong with my current bike, but I want something newer.


Here let me add a GASGAS 300 to the list!

GasGas EC300 and never look back. I see you guys have great prices for newer used models in the US.

If not then get the Beta x-trainer, better suited for a beginner and easier to sell (especially in US) if you are not hoked.

My buddy just picked up a YZ250X and so far he loves it. I havent ridden it yet, but I trust his judgement. He has nothing but good things to say about it. Best part is that it was $2000 less than a comparable KTM/Husqvarna model. I think that the YZ250X might be the best bang for the buck in the off road motorcycle world right now.

Why did you move it? I am asking about "What Bike to Buy" Just like the "General" areas say's.

Is it because there isn't a GasGas on the list? If so this is rather disheartening that it is being tucked away in an area that have limited views on the forum.

If I put Gas Gas 300 on the list would you of left it?

Seems fishy to me!

This is not one of those forums. I am guessing there is a genuine reason.

Anyway I think most people just hit the new posts button when they log on - that's what I do anyway

Just seemed odd that in the section for asking about a "What bike to buy" it gets moved to "Other bikes" section. So it's what "GasGas" to buy there and all others here????


There's a new post button! Where?

Edit: Haha found it! Heck yea!

Yes $2000 less but you will spend all of that adding all the small things European bikes come standard with
I'm sure we have all been down hat road on the past (I know I have)
