Hi newbe here. Are the GAS-GAS that much better. I have a KDX-200 with all the bells and whistle a lot of money invested, and a few home made mods. I trail ride half of the time, and do Harescrambles and a couple of GNCC. I have rode in the 200-B class, and now that I am a little older the Senior C class. I do ok, I ride at a turtle pace, I got the kdx set up to mantane a third gear pace. The only GAS-GAS bikes I see racing in the Northcarolina hairscrambles are in the pro-A-and AA classes one or two bikes in each class and they are the EC-250. The B-C are race serperate from A on up so I can't compare lap times, So I just need more input and infor to compare wich GAS is for me, any changes on the 04 would be nice. All replies welcome thanks.
