Canadian bikes are really confusing. GG Pacific is ordering some EU spec EC300s with ES and also is ordering some CC models with e-start which is the same as the US XC model. The EU spec bikes are coming with all the street legal stuff on them and Sachs forks and shock. They also come with a EU VIN which in some provinces (Ontario) is extremely difficult to register. I personally will not sell an EU spec bike to any of my customers as the VIN causes too much confusion with the MTO and the insurance companies. Again, this is an Ontario issue and may not affect you in your province, yet.

The CC/XC bikes have simplified wiring harnesses without all the street stuff and come with Marzocchi/Ohlins suspension.

I have the 2011 300ES CC/XC in stock. If you have any specific questions regarding them send me a PM or email.

Justin: You get the magnet installed in the front brake rotor and power to run a TrailTech, but neither the signal cable or actual computer unit.

There's a thread here somewhere as to which TrailTech to buy (stock on EU bikes) and I believe the KTM/Husaberg pick-up is a direct bolt on.

Okay, I got it.........I think ( I am blonde)

So in the end will need a magnet on the wheel, wire up to a computer, and a computer for the system to function. From the factory the bike will ONLY have the magnet?

I plan on running my ICO

Thanks!

p.s. emailed you

There was no magnet in the rotor on my 2011 250

But the Trail tech set up supplies one that installs in seconds with a C clip on one side
