I may be purchasing my first GasGas-tips?

Not trying to hijack this train, but i'm getting close to buying a new 300 estart up here in canada eh. Can anyone tell me what the difference's are on the canadian bikes from xc to ec models? I've had an 01 and currently 04 ec 300's and i love these bikes. I'd like to stay with the tried and true ec300,but all i've heard about in estart is the xc so far.???????????

Canadian bikes are really confusing. GG Pacific is ordering some EU spec EC300s with ES and also is ordering some CC models with e-start which is the same as the US XC model. The EU spec bikes are coming with all the street legal stuff on them and Sachs forks and shock. They also come with a EU VIN which in some provinces (Ontario) is extremely difficult to register. I personally will not sell an EU spec bike to any of my customers as the VIN causes too much confusion with the MTO and the insurance companies. Again, this is an Ontario issue and may not affect you in your province, yet.

The CC/XC bikes have simplified wiring harnesses without all the street stuff and come with Marzocchi/Ohlins suspension.

I have the 2011 300ES CC/XC in stock. If you have any specific questions regarding them send me a PM or email.

Ummm

Now I am confused (more then normal).

2010's in the U.S do or do not come with a mag pick-up?

Justin: You get the magnet installed in the front brake rotor and power to run a TrailTech, but neither the signal cable or actual computer unit.

There's a thread here somewhere as to which TrailTech to buy (stock on EU bikes) and I believe the KTM/Husaberg pick-up is a direct bolt on.

Okay, I got it.........I think ( I am blonde)

So in the end will need a magnet on the wheel, wire up to a computer, and a computer for the system to function. From the factory the bike will ONLY have the magnet?

I plan on running my ICO

Thanks!

p.s. emailed you

the stock GasGas magnet has been fine for my watchdog setup on previous bikes,not sure on the new bike,ill check it out next weekend when i pick it up!

 

[Rod Overstreet]

Stock magnet on the 2010 powers my ICO with no problems.

 

[husley]

but

Will I need to purchase the cable that runs from the Caliper up to the computer or is the cable come standard on the U.S. bikes?





Happy New Year

bikes probably dont come with a wire,but if you buy a trailtech they come with the wire,as well as any enduro computer

There was no magnet in the rotor on my 2011 250

But the Trail tech set up supplies one that installs in seconds with a C clip on one side
