Older GG?
Hey everyone, just curious about your experienced opinions. I have an opportunity to acquire a couple GGs pretty cheap. They are both 2000-2001 ish, EC300 and 250. The 250 is a basket case but the 300 is a runner, needs a little TLC but doesn't appear too bad. Probably use the 250 for spares. Were there any issues with the early 2000s? Were they nice bikes? I ride a lot of rocky singletrack here in AZ. I have a GG trials bike and have access to a dealer, I don't mind doing a little work if it would be a decent bike for my purpose, just wondering about the overall opinion of these things. Thanks.

Thanks. I have heard it depends on what you need as to what Mike can get for the enduros. I know trials stuff is definitely his thing. I may pull the trigger on these bikes. Have you had any issues with parts availability? Where do you usually get stuff for your older GG? Thanks again.

Well I did it. Traded for the two bikes. The 300 is cosmetically a little rough but seems mechanically sound and the 250 is blown up. I have enough nice parts to make one nice bike and have a supply of spares. Looking forward to getting it put together and then back to my other projects. Wish me luck. BTW, thanks for all the great info on this site, I'm sure it will be indispensable.

Westside, Peoria. I always liked my first GG trials bike, easy to work on. Haven't messed with my newest one much. This EC seems the same, looks like a lot of interchangeability with other bikes as well. Should be nice for the kind of riding I like these days.

You consider selling the 250 cylinder and head?
Would even consider damaged parts if repairable. |

Yes, probably sell some stuff off soon. I'll take some pics when I can.
