[Diggs345]

Hi everyone
Only joinen the forum last week and have been searching for a new to me bike , after missing a few this 2009 ec300 six days came up, its in very good clean condition and everything works as it should , sounds good and clutch is perfect with no drag , was mostly used for trail riding .
What do you think

It wont load the pics in a decent quality from photobucket , never had a problem before.
On another note ,i live in scunthorpe in the uk near to one of the other guys on here i believe , had a quick chat on email ,
Been riding since i was 11 and im now 44 , mainly 2 smokes but my last two bikes were a alloy frame cr500 and a yzf250 which i sold 2 years ago .
Im hoping to do some trail riding and a few enduro rounds for a bit of fun, so hope you get well soon andy and you can show me a few trails lol.

Out of interest what is the suspension like on the 09 bike , is it worth getting it revalved and sprung , or possibly swapping the rear shock for a ohlins ? , is there any other quirks i should know about.
Regards
Chris

Nice looking bike. The motor looks just like my 2011.....

LOl Chris, amazing to find 2 lads from Scunthorpe riding Gassers.... But that's kind of where the similarity ends. Im on a huge learning curve, probably clocked up a total of 8 hrs off road, all of which have been since November.

That said, I've loved every minute of it, from breaking my ribbs, to the engine going bang.

Glad you've jumped on twitter and the local bike forum, I'm sure we will meet up soon enough and you can show me the ropes.

By the way, the bike looks far too clean, when my engines rebuilt, let's get them dirty

Thanks , I'm hoping it will get dirty in the morning before I return to work
