As mentioned, the EX 300 is more
race-orientated than the EC 300. It
is tuned more aggressively than its
EC 300 enduro brother and comes
with higher quality Brembo brakes
and hydraulic clutch system. Regard-
less, the EX 300 costs the same as
the EC 300 at $9599. The EX 300 is
most comparable to KTM's 300 XC
and Husky's TX300. However, it is
priced considerably less than both of
them—$600 less than the KTM and
$700 less than the Husky.
This bike is a bargain and is visually
appealing (though we must admit that
we prefer the all-red MC motocross
bikes). If you are planning to do some
racing, you will like the EX's stiffer sus-
pension settings over the EC model.
Power-wise, the EX 300 and EC 300
share the same engine mapping and
perform similarly on the trail.
The GasGas off-
roaders set themselves
apart from the GasGas
motocrossers by their
white trim. The EX
(cross-country) models
come without lights.
