Gas Gas EC300 2005 questions for newbie.

[Pinsx3]

I kinda dropped modern stuff and concentrated on VMX and vintage trials for the past 15 years, now the kids are old enough to really ride trails. So I just bought a little blue beast. I have some questions for you experienced people.

The plastics are a bit tired. does anyone know where I can get new plastics for this bike? do the white polisport kits work well?

What seat kits are available?

The forks are a bit harsh, does anyone have tuning tips?

I am riding Washington -- the rear tire is a bit rounded. I was thinking trials tire, what recommendations for tires?

It has a plate, but that is really it. Headlight and tail light inoperative. I am going to chase that down. Has anyone retrofitted a battery? If so, how did you do it?

Thank you very much

Pete

Can't help too much on the rest of your list, but I'll take any chance I get to direct people looking for seats to https://www.gutsracing.com/
I use their tall soft foam with their ribbed cover, cant say enough good things about it.
