If it is true, that would be my next bike.

Do you realize that the Gas Gas 200/250/300 engine has been around for 10 years?
That's XR400 like.

If it ain't broke..............

Yea there is a perfect groove to follow when you want to cut it out. We have to mount our plates on the front # plate here in Alberta for OHV use so the rear mount is useless. The air filter is a new part so any extra ones you have from older models would not work. I think.

Well I just crated back up the '07 EC300 to send to Vancouver. I didn't get to ride it at all. I got this inner ear thing this week and my balance was out of wack, so I dropped off the bike and the guys tested it all weekend. I haven't talked to them about it but I will and update anything I find out.

I think that may be an error Claude. The EC200 Hobby will come with a Sachs shock, but all the ECs will still be Ohlins as far as I'm aware.

..and gasgasman...hate to be a downer, but I don't think the rumour are correct. Far as I know it's still based off the 250/300 chassis, just as it's always been. However I haven't seen one yet in the flesh, so could be wrong...but I don't think so
