Another new Gas Gas owner and shout out to GoFasters

[TeamBFT]

Well, I think I'm up to about 70 bikes that I've owned over the years....everything from crotch rockets to Ducs, Beemers and Harleys.
I've always been (and still am) a die-hard KTM nut. Still have my 450 EXC which I love. But here in Tennessee, I realized I needed something more nimble for some of the tight stuff we ride (a little different than Colorado, where I moved from). And a lot of guys here have smokers.

So this super gent I met a while back had this impeccable 2007 EC300, rekluse, scotts, cycra, Ohlins TTX and more. I finally grabbed it. Will give her its maiden voyage this weekend at this two day ride up in Kentucky - Renfro Valley ride....very much looking forward to it.

I spent a lot of time with the GG in my garage Saturday, prepping and setting up.....I rode it around my property some....early insights - VERY IMPRESSIVE!!! Feels very nimble, balanced, certainly torquey and will lug like no other. Design is pretty cool too.

I'm gonna love it and look forward to many years of Gas Gas.....

Also, I've come to know the guys at GoFasters a little bit this week. Man, what an impressive crew there.....unbelievably accomodating and they follow through!!!!!

Thanks.

Yeah - I called around looking for a natural 3.2 Clarke in stock - which I didnt expect to find - JustTanks, CycleBuy - not gots.

I forgot to check GoFasters - called them. "Yeah, we got one of those upstairs" They shipped it priority just now so I can install Thursday night in time for my departure Friday......was getting concerned about fuel range based on the posts I've been reading. We will be able to buy gas along the ride, but I would like to as little as possible. First day will likely be 125 miles....so a couple stops for gas is fine.

Hey - I met your son at the dealership! He races enduro?

I had some work done to my son's previous 250 XC-F.
