EC300 vs 300EXC questions
Hello all,
I keep seeing vids/reviews saying the GasGas EC300 is heavy? I may have lost the plot, but every spec site I hit has 2012 - 2014 models KTM at about 102 - 104 kg dry Gasgas at about 103 - 104kg dry Am I missing something here? The trusted, reliable, faithful, much loved 2005 450 FSE is getting harder to throw around as age increases. Any comments on the ride on EC300 as a replacement would be much appreciated. Typical = fast open dirt tracks, rocky fire tracks, sticky shitty clay, min single track, some sand, usually play with a flock of DRZ400E's which i still want to keep in the rear view mirror preferably! Look forward to your comments cheers |

I had a '15 GG 250.
It did weigh 274lbs. You can't feel the weight when riding. I never really had any trouble throwing it around. It was heavy to pick up after a long ride. The '18 on the other hand, is super easy to throw around. |

The newer ones ('17-'18) are much lighter.

I?ve ridden both 2013 & 2018 EC300?s.
The weight & feel of the bikes are night and day different. You won?t notice any power deficit of power with the 300 but you will have to adjust your riding style a little. The 2018?s are fantastic machines, but like every bike, need a little set up time. Except suspension - unbelievably good out of the box.
