I rode an EC250 last weekend for the first time and WOW!!! That bike was like my KDX on steroids. Dont tell Canadian Dave and the rest of the KDX'ers but I am seriously considering buying one. Just a few questions for you Gassers:
1. What are the main differences between the EC and XC bikes?
2. There is only 1/2 hp difference between the 250 and 300? Is there a big difference in the way they ride? One would think the 300 is torquier than the 250 but 1/2 HP?
3. My little KDX is by far the most reliable bike I have ever owned. How reliable is the Gas Gas? I have heard some say they have "glass" transmissions?
4. How expensive are the parts compared to the big 4 Jap bikes?
5. Is it true that the frame is KX based and KX plastics will fit.
6. What are the main differences between year models?
7. Any models to stay away from?
I value ya'lls opinions MUCH more than some dealer or someone trying to sell one. Any help will be apprecited.
