I think I am in love!

I picked up a 2010 ec250 this year for a smoking deal knowing I would need to put some money into it. So instead of putting more money into the ktm( xcw that I have not been happy with hate the transmission and non linkage) I pick this bike up for what I sold the 06 ktm for.I sent the cylinder to eric to replate and cut the cylinder down, sent the suspenion to be tuned and found out the forks were screwed. I had some CC WP forks built changed the way the bike was set up. High rise bars and higher pegs. I have been out a couple time and really love this bike it seems to fit me so much better and love the power way more lugging power then I thought it would have with good top. I have been wanting a gasgas for the last couple years and now that I am on one I coundn't be happier.

i know how you feel. im in love myself. my 2011 six days 300 was gettign a lot of hours and i made the switch to a new 2012 ktm 300 xc. and i can honestly say im in love myself, but not with the new KTM. its top heavy, doesnt turn well, pushes and dives in turns, i guess i didnt realize how much i loved my gasser!!

dont tempt me, you arent that far away!!

I am serious and I will even drive that way. My GasGas is loaded with goodies and a great bike but I always like something different.

I'm going to jump in here and say- If one of you is selling a 2011 GG 300 I'm looking, depending on price......I'm in NW Arkansas, so not far from rbm33 & I can drive towards jeffs2200

[jeffs2200]

I am not exactly looking to sell. A trade is interesting because I can try something new without having to go out and buy a new bike. I guess if I could get enough for my 300 to purchase a good condition KTM 250 or 300 xc 2011 or 12 I would be tempted to sell it. As I said before I like the Gasser it is just nice to try out a new toy.
