want to buy.. 250 or 300 EC

[robdogg]

looking for a 2003 or newer 250 or 300 that hasn't been raced.. have cash in hand (but not a huge bankroll, so probably can't afford brand new) and I live in the Seattle area but will travel (or meet up depending upon distance) for the right deal.

please prevent me from having to buy another KTM

I wouldn't shy away from a raced bike without checking it out 1st.
It seems they (we) often take better care of them than play riders do.

I'm sure some are.. I know plenty of guys that race.. grew up in a racing family etc. but there are stresses put on a motor during a race, that a bike used for casual trail riding doesn't go through.. not looking for a bike ridden by the proverbial little old lady from Pasadena, but maybe from some old guy in the Cascade foothills that uses it for pleasant trail riding.. which is what I intend to do with it

saw that.. but question on the differences between EC and DE.. are the DE's, the new EC's? the 2006 in Eugene doesn't appear to have a headlight or tail light.. are those factory add-on's or?? this is an off-road bike vs MX right? (wide ratio six speed tranny, softer suspension etc., mellower ignition etc.)

A modern 250/300 2-stroke makes so much power that you have to be a top rider to use it all. These bikes are tough and stress under normal racing conditions is not a factor. Hours and maintanence is a factor. A bike owned and maintained by an average racer who is a good wrench would be fine, just look it over closely.

Check Eugene Craigslist, my old 250 is up there for $2000. It's been raced, but I know for a fact that it has been completely rebuilt from the bottom up, no stone left unturned. It's like brand new. It is a Six Days model and has the WP 50mm conventionals.
