Looking to try out a GG 200/250. I'm a shorter guy and think I would really appreciate the GG lower height. 09 WR150 Bike has ~50 hours on it. Only about 5 hours on the new ring. Has some upgrades inlcuding: Moose Bark Busters Motosportz Tires (~100 miles on them) CR ignition and JD ignition...

I'm still pretty new to moto.. (though I've been racing mountain bikes for awhile now.) I'm not sure how pleased I'll be after constantly dropping the bike. That being said, I'm in Davis, CA. Perhaps we should meet up sometime if you feel like riding with a beginner.. :p Sent you a PM!

Yep, just checked the DMV website and it says "If your OHV has a "3" or "C" in the eighth position of the vehicle identification number (VIN) then your vehicle will be issued a red sticker." My VIN# has a C so it looks like I should be good for a red sticker. Is that the CA format or is there...

Thanks for the reply. Any idea what makes a VIN# CA friendly? I actually have the VIN and I'd like to check it out before I plop down the cash.

Hey guys, Looking to buy a GasGas and most of the used ones I can find are out of state with just the MSO. Will I run into any issues @ the DMV? Besides the regular transfer fees, will I be hit with any other fees? Not looking to plate anything.. I just want my green/red sticker. Some friends...

Thanks for the replies. Wish I could get a chance to ride one of these bikes.. I'm stuck between a '10 KTM 200 XCW, '11 GG 200, or a new '12 WR150. GG 200 would be at the top of my list but I'm also interested in a light weight package, and from what I've read, the WR and KTM ride lighter...

If I'm looking for low end grunt in a light weight package should I be looking at the 250 rather than the 200? I've found a 200 locally but am now having second thoughts.. Any comments and info is appreciated.

How does the KTM 200 compare in terms of weight next to the EC200/250? I'm guessing the KTM may be lighter on paper, but does it ride "lighter" or does the GasGas?

Looking for a newer GasGas 200. Please let me know if you have one for sale or know of one for sale. Thanks!

:( Back to square one. Seller sold his bike to someone locally before I could come get it. If anyone finds a GG 200, please let me know! From what I recall, the newer GG200 are slightly heavier than the WR125. Does it feel heavier as well?

Just found a great deal on an 09 Husqvarna WR125. I will be picking it up next week. Hppefully I didn't make the wrong decision. When the day comes and I'm ready to buy new.. GasGas will definitely be on the list. Sounds like the perfect bike for short people!

Hey Guys, Thanks for the replys. Sorry for such a wide arrange of bikes. I listed the GG 250 and 300 only because those are the only used ones I can find somewhat locally. The KTMs on the other hand I can find pretty easily locally for 2800-3500. The Husky WR125 I can get for $3000 from an...

Hey Guys, New here, and from my research, it seems like Gasgas bikes would work out great for me. I'm coming from a mountain bike back ground and am looking for something reasonably light. I'm also not a very large person @ 145lbs and 5'7". I'm still a novice to moto, but have ridden and owned...
