05 EC 200-first ride!

[nhrider]

First ride on my new to me 2005 EC 200 DE. I only rode it for about an hour and a half but the bike is awesome!

At first I was a little worried about buying it but not anymore!

First thing that scared me was the sound. My friend has an YZ400 and the way that the sounds carries is nothing like the GG. No more worries.

Second thing was keeping the bike going in the slow stuff. No worries! Very easy too ride and didn’t foul a plug.

Things that need to be replaced/fixed:
-Levers –the guy cut the balls off the ends to fit in the hand guards which made it hard to grip in the wet conditions.
-sprockets and chain
-Rear brake lever rubbing on the clutch cover. The lever doesn’t look bent and I’m not sure how thick that cover is.

Other than those 3 things the bike is great! Can’t wait to ride it this weekend!
