Does anyone know if the 2011 ec300 sixdays has a lighter flywheel weight than the e starts ?

Thats funny I know a guy here in chilliwack who does the same thing on his Ktm he hasnt gone in a few years work is to busy. I was thinking more easy over nighters in the pacific north west or B.C. the dual sport guys do it all the time. I think it would be cooler to do it all off road. To...

I wont be doing many long events, my experience riding is sportsman at best. I'm looking for a bike that will lug nicely through the single track scream up the logging roads and be a hoot on the open sand river rides. As I want to buy a bike I will be happy with as my skills improve and keep for...

Has anyone delt with international motorsports with their Gasgas bikes ? How are they to deal with ? Parts selection ? Support ? I am thinking of buying a bike and they are the only ones with any stock on GasGas bikes. Cheers Glen

The 250 300 debate will have to be made by the seat of my pants, with a test ride. I am curious about the differences in models, sachs vs the zokes, ohlns vs sachs. Which is best setup for the woods out of the box. Price will be a concern. The local dealer has a few 2010 models in stock im sure...
