SEAT CONCEPTS-MODIFIED GASGAS EC300
P106
Feature
of riding no matter where you are. Footpegs are
becoming less of a must-have mod in our books
as the stock stuff is so good these days. If we're
saving money, we'd leave the stock pegs on.
There are some clear Idaho mountain mods
here, too. The Motoz mountain Hybrid Gummy
rear tire is pretty great. It sticks to rocks and,
somehow, wears like iron. If you're crawling
across the backcountry, it's a good choice. And
the Rekluse Radius CX clutch has Idaho written
all over it. And this auto clutch is the one that
most manual clutch lovers can get along with. It
will eliminate stalling, and that's always a good
thing if you're on the edge of a cliff.
The 2strokeheads.com Billet Head is a mod
that can make a big difference on a two-stroke.
Adjusting the squish and optimizing the burn
of the bang action inside the cylinder is some-
thing you can certainly feel on a two-stroke. The
GasGas 300 could use some cleaning up on the
higher revs, in our opinion, and this bike seems
to be on its way to getting dialed. Of course, we
had to play with some jetting at our near-sea-
level test ride. But, this is something that goes
hand-in-hand with building a modified two-
stroke for the mountains—you're going to jet it to
work correctly.
As far as the suspension mods, we've been
pleased with stock GasGas KYB units. So, improv-
ing on that setup is going to be a personal bias on
how you want your bike to handle. The Dicks Rac-
ing mods to the GasGas didn't do anything wrong,
but we'd like to get it home to the hills and see how
it handles the roots and rocks that can really throw
your balance off.
In the end, this is a bike that drools cool but
probably has a few too many dollar signs at-
tached to it for most people. Based on how good
the GasGas stock bikes are, we'd use this as a
top-end for our build scale and pick and choose a
few pieces to add to our own bikes.
Now, let's go to Idaho and try it! CN
