GasGas EC300 - The review from KNOX

GasGas EC300 - The review from KNOX

We were lucky enough to spend a few weeks with the GasGas EC300 enduro bike, and this is our review!

The machine of choice of virtually every hard enduro rider lining up on a starting grid, the 300cc KTM derived 2 stroke powered machine needs no introduction. But how does that work out for the average non-professional weekend rider, riding mostly legal trails? Pretty well it turns out!

With a monster for a motor, Enduro tuned suspension and ridiculously lightweight construction, the GasGas EC300 had us in both awe and respect for what is ultimately a 10/10 enduro bike!

Thanks for watching, we really enjoyed this one and are hoping to test the 350f version soon.

Just picked up mine on the weekend, installed a carbon pipe guard, aluminum skid plat, Scotts steering damper and Enduro Engineering hand guards and she's ready to take her for a rip! Great Video!

I just bought an EC300 and spent the last couple months getting it geared up. I’ve been off of dirt bikes for 40 years and I’m probably a 3 out of 10 at this point! Hopefully this bike dosent try and kill me like my CRF 450RL does every time I ride it!

Really nice 'toy'. Time to find some places to ride this pretty. And as always a delightful review. Well done.

Hi lads. Fantastic reviews as usual. Quick bit of advice: I'm a gs 1250 rider who does trails (sometimes to big for the bike) and wanted to get an additional bike that could ride a couple of hours max to trails, but was much lighter, is a four stroke and a bike i could lower by 40mm at shock and forks just under 5' 7"...many thanks in advance!

Protect 2 stroke at all costs!!😂 Nice review team 🤜

Can you guys please review the BMW F900R? You did the walk around 2 years ago in the Motorcycle Show but want to see you guys doing reviews of it in the real world with drag races and all ☺️

Wait clarify why it has no license plate atm? I didn’t follow that part

[RiggerbeeOffRoad]

Please could you share the actual green lanes where this is filmed ?

[trip_in_the_mirror]

for dual-sport riding, it is better to buy a Honister jacket and a 3in1 jacket or an Urbane Pro jacket + 3in1?

What are the service intervals, Aaron? I'd really like to use this bike as an urban demon with the occasional foray off road, but not if it needs a service every 2 weeks! Or am I being daft?

[justRORIRARU]

U can get a number plate 4 a new 2stroke in UK 2 make it street legal if it's not a small number produced one?

Have you ridden the Yamaha 450 or the Honda 450? How’s the power band hit compared to those

This is so funny. The moto bros at VitalMX declared the fueling on this bike to be poor. Then your report says no issues, and my ownership shares no issues. Oh well, it ain't a motocross bike, so it must be junk.

Also, I see poor reviews of the brakes. I spent a day three weeks ago in a near vertical, rocky environment. My front brake felt great, and never failed, as my buds and I dared each other to try different lines up a mega huge hill. 😆
