Guys I got my new race bikes in last week. A 300 racing and a 125ec. Both 09's. A few observations on the new steeds. The 300 racing does have the larger ignition! I am so happy it has the big ignition! I tried the smaller one and could not make it lug even with a 12 oz flywheel weight. Big ignition = awesome. Another unexpected thing is the carb is now a flat side carb. Just like the one on YZ 250s minus the TPS wiring. I think this should only be a possitive as the throttle pull is less then my 125 and it should aide the low end response even more, from past experiences I have had with this carb. The front axle (300) is now a solid one as well. The 125 is pretty standard. It comes with the 45 zokes and that is fine with me. 125s seem to work well with about any suspension imo. The engine is completely different from my last GG 125 (02) so I am hoping for a little more power. All in all the bikes are looking great and I am doing the basic mods, bars, pegs, rad. mods, ect. On the 300 I will be removing the largest shim from the compression stack and leave the rear suspension as is. It is very firm stock and should work well for the qualifier test pace. I will report back once I get some time on them. I will put the Trell. studded tires on and once the temps get barable I will start to get some time on them. The fit and finish on these bikes seems to me like it has gone up even more from years past.

My local gasgas guy will send me a new pipe (´08 or ´07 mod) tomorrow, and I hope they will change this for the ´10 models. Alot of riders want to use studded tires I guess.
