Ec200 2015, why so few available parts??

[Jimmy p]

Been trying to find a plastics kit and general parts for my 2015 ec200,
But there seems to be a real shortage or general availability on parts for 2014-2015 models??
Could any one tell me what years are compatible with the 2015 or a link to get parts?
Cheers

Nearly anything from 12-17 will fit.
If you're in the USA I'd recommend calling Budd Matto of Matto's cycle, or Brett from Bonjoes Cycle. Both ship and both are great dealers.
If in Canada I'd recommend Lang's Offroad.
Anywhere else and I can't help ya.

Thanks for your help, unfortunately I?m all the way down in New Zealand so I really have to rely on the likes of eBay etc.
Just seems strange that 2015 is almost a forgotten year for gas gas

It was the last year before the bankruptcy.
IIRC plastics from 2012 and on will fit. I know for sure the front and rear fenders were the same.

This Polisport link seems to suggest that all the plastics except the rear number plates are identical from 2012-2015.

And this link from scrub designs sells complete kits for 2012 bikes.
https://scrubdesignz.com/en/plastics...ec-series.html

I've bought graphics from Scrub before and been very impressed.

Looking at photo's of the 2012 and 2015 bikes the rear number plate plastics are definitely different. But are probably interchangeable.

Thanks for that, Last week I made the mistake of ordering the 2011-2013 ec 200 kit, and the only thing that could possibly fit is the front fender, all other parts are way different to the oem ec200 parts, quite confusing:/

The 200 chassis is the same as the 250 and 300, so unless if you are looking at engine internals they will be same same.

2012-2017 all but the same. Some changes to side panels from 12-13 I believe. Some subframe variants. Some changes in linkage as well between standard and racing models. Some had the e-start, others not. Believe that there were some changes to the frame between 12-13 and then again into 15 as well.

Motocrosscenter will mail parts. Postage is pricey but if you need enough it still works out as good value. Alternatively, download the parts fiche from the gg website. Look up what you need and go and see your local dealer with a list of part numbers. They should be able to source them for you..

What are you specifically after?

That was very helpful, thanks mate.
I?m after the full plastics kit and a radiator if I can?t get mine fixed.
Luckily, I?m actually flying to Colorado Springs for two weeks work, so mite try get some parts sent to my hotel while there to save on shipping to Nz.

The USPS has a little known but fantastic service called "General Delivery"

I recently used it when travelling to the United States when I needed to pick up a radiator for a bike that broke while loading it into a trailer. Basically you get the sender to write "general delivery" to a specific post office (usually the main post office for any given town or city) and the package will be left there until you come to pick it up.

It's SUPER convenient for getting things when you aren't staying at a fixed address, or just passing through a town.

The specifics can be found here:

Great! Sounds good, I?ll be sure to use that method 👍

Also, check out GreenlandMX.com. It's a Spanish GG dealer that I've had good luck with in the past. They seem to carry a lot of aftermarket products for GG and do (or did) a lot of overseas shipping.

I once ordered a part from them on a Monday and had it here in the US on Friday AM using cheapest freight available (Don't recall which shipper)

I never had a problem with the currency exchange rate when dealing with them.

It's worth a shot if your other options don't work out.
