I am planning on buying a new bike in the next couple months and am really looking at the Gas Gas EC line.
I have not had the opportunity to ride either the 250 or 300 but of all the posts that have been written everyone seems to think the 300 is an easier bike to ride. I am a VET rider and will compete in the SETRA harescramble series on occasions.
The question I have is how different is the power output between the 250 and 300. Could I get the 250 and tune it to run more like the 300, which is said to be very smooth. I am not looking for the most peak HP but want a smooth power delivery. The reason I say this is that I am concerned that the 300 could be a handful at times.
Would a flywheel weight on the 250 give me these results or is there anything else I could do to make the 250 less peaky but more linear?
Any suggestions or ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Matt
