Default Hello from Concord Ca.

I just bought my first GasGas, 2011 EC 250 six days. 70 hrs on it. I have been a KTM rider for a long time and this is my first purchase in dirt bikes out side of KTM. Headed out to Rock Creek this Saturday to see if I'm going to keep this bike. The bike looks awesome, I just hope it rides like it looks.

Cheers
Logan

Its laying on my bench right now. I got it with the side stand already pre-boken off. I have a friend whos going to weld it up today I hope. If not, there are plenty of side stands in the woods.

I did adjust the power valve noise yesterday and that made me a lot happier about the bike. My old KTM 300 was nice and quiet and now this one is too, well almost. It still knocks at idle but I can live with that.

The idle knock is probably the PV. Its normal, but it can be quieted up.

Congrats man, I came off a '10 KTM 300 when I moved to GG200 - best decision I've made regarding the bike I ride.

Looking forward to the pics and ride report
