Electric Start EC300
Anyone heard any updates on the EC300 electric start? Noticed one dealer had them advertised on his website saying they were coming in December??
Will we be able to retrofit the older bikes or do I have to start being extra nice to the lovely wife?

Just in case.....always be nice to the wife, then WHEN you need it, you have some credit built up :-)

I too am interested in the electric start. My tune has changed.
I was once pretty against the idea for my bike. But with all the course work and set up Ive been doing this last year. It sure would be nice. Really, it has nothing to do with getting older. Roscoe

latest I've heard is they are supposed to be released in spain in jan so don't think the rest of the world will see it before feb-march? once you have a e-start on any bike I think it would be hard to go back, I've had 3 gasgas's and then a spell on a wr250 but I'll be back when the 2010 300 gets here and can't wait!

No really, I think as far as helping to get out of tough spots like mountain single track where foot placement while kick starting, on steep inclines, and when your racing and tired and stall cause the going is tough, a quick push of the button and away you go is a huge advantage. Roscoe

Has anyone seen the new motor yet? I thought I recalled that the cases would be smaller on the new motor. Does that mean different internals?

Have you got any more info on the e-start 300 ? Is e-start going to be available in all 2 stroke models ? Very tempting... Actually I would take one now, but I'm off to do a preride of Baja 1000 in March, so better hold off till I get back. Just in case I end up owning the Honda 450 rental bike, ouch.
