Sorry, not a fan of this new look. Black looks good in the showroom and then like crap in short order. New rear side panel treatment looks similar to the KTM's now but even smaller and for those who race almost no room for #'s. Now hopefully the changes not so easily seen will make the bikes better for 2010 and plastic can always be changed.

I love the new look especially the red/black. I agree that black plastic does start looking rough quickly but only the shrouds and air box covers are black and they are almost completely covered with vinyl graphics. Vinyl does keep looking good (even black vinyl).
I have an 07 gasser that I absolutely love except for the way it looks. I think 2007 was the worst looking year for GasGas bikes this century. The graphics make the bike look like it came from China not from Spain.

I have to agree. I had to change my graphics quick. '08 was a big improvement.
Side number plates are so played out. No one uses them anymore.
Black does look old quick, they may offer red as an option.
The Racing version has all new brakes. Smaller rear caliper like the Jap MX bikes.
Looks like the "soft" seat is a gonner.
I may go trim my side number plates.

So wait, did they get e-start? Specs?
Black is impossible to keep looking decent.

Says e-start on the 300.
The all black and white bike is the Nambotin replica.

you obviously don't race in new england ...
Netra uses 4 digit race numbers and they are required on the front and both sides.
That said there is plenty of room for side numbers. Graphics companies will ignore that little white sliver and and make number backgrounds that will use the whole side. thats what they do with the ktms
Don't know if I'm a fan of all that black....
Can't stress too much about it, first boghole you hit and all that previous hard work of cleaning it up has gone. They do look sweet IMO
True-too many fast riders out there.
I figured with transponders you would not need side #s.

NETRA runs numbers and transponders.

I just wish GG would stick to one ICONIC color. Being that they are spanish made red and yellow would be good. Though limited editions are good to have every so often. I like the red forks!

I'd like to see the enduro bikes get the red frame treatment like the trials bikes. I'm diggen the red anodized hubs and forks though. Black rims suck and make the bike look heavy IMO. How about a brushed or anthricite color instead?
GG needs to spend less $$ and time changing colors and plastics and offer a proper oversize tank for the newer bikes. Cramming on a larger tank designed for earlier models is not a satisfactory solution. Other than that good steady incremental improvements.
Can't wait to see a review of the new 250 Gasaha and e-start 300

My jaw dropped when I saw those photos. The new ECs look awesome, though I think the regular ECs look better than the Racing editions. Those red forks are really an eye catcher.
Any idea when we'll get the specs on the new ones?
