2007 Ec 200 Anybody???

[BILLYBURNS]

I am looking for feedback from anyone who has been riding the 2006 or 2007 ec 200's. I'll take all good and bad info as I am making the switch from ktm 200's and want to know all before I through my leg over the bike.

Thank you in advance!

well it certainly will be great to have a super fast AA guy on a gasser,now go get the title this year! you should get in touch with art korn,he had one early on when jake had his gassers,pretty sure john day sr. had a 200 for a short while

SHHHHHH! I was sort of hoping to keep this possible change quiet! Maybe someone outside our area will have some good info about these bikes. I road with Jim Senecal yesterday and got to try his 250 but really want to hear about the 200's. Jerod Stoner road a 200 for a year or year and a half but that was back in 04 or 05, not sure. I need current feedback now that the suspension stuff has been worked out, I think?? Everything that I read says that the frame, suspension, and brakes are great. I know that reliabilty seems very good and now with Go-Fasters on board parts shouldn't be a problem. Some one out in the world must be riding on of these things.

contact danno on this site,daniel janus,pretty sure he races the 200 or 125s not too sure

if you dont mind me asking why the switch? you guys do have a close shop to you,and he also rides GG!

I see all the dark side boys are coming into the light. good luck Billy , I hope you told your frind Brian before the rest of the GG world or he's going to be heart broken when he reads this.

That is a good question.

1) I had an idea
2) I mentioned it to a friend who passed it on
3) an offer came up

and then the switch was in motion and only time will tell what happens next.

I hoping to be racing soon and if it comes together it will be on a GG. I've got my fingers crossed that everything works out but if not I'll still be on orange. It will be really hard to beat my KTM setup. When Jim Senecal rode it yesterday even he couldn't believe how smooth the bike is. I will say that my current bike has the best setup out of any bike that I have ever ridden. That bike will be in my garage forever....it has 30 wins!

my ideas are never that good! good luck on whatever you end up with!

LMAO ! No. He hasn't said a word. I log on and see his name and think "WTF is he doing here ?!!!"
It's funny because me and another GG rider were just discussing if we could ever talk Billy into trying a Gasser. We concluded that there wasn't a chance in hell. LOL !
I'm glad to hear he's giving GG a look.

Billy,try Fred Hoess,he has or was on them for 5 years.He did the ISDE on one in 07'. He is from Jersey,call Clipper, one of those guys from TR should know.

 

[Brian VT]

Fred rides a 125 I think ? Should still be good info from him though.

 

[SpeedyManiac]

Fred rode a 300 in Chile. Normally I think he's on a 200 or 250.

Hmmm, must try that.
