RIDE REVIEW I 2022 GASGAS EX 300
P66
I
t can be a challenge to keep up
with all the different off-road-
specific models these days. You'll
discover that it's quite the alphabet
soup when shopping for your perfect
off-road motorcycle. You have, for
example, EX, EC, XC, XC TPI, XC-F,
XC-F-W, TE, FE, TX, EXC, ETC ... I
mean, etc. And all these designations
are across just three brands that roll
off the same assembly line in Austria
(KTM, Husqvarna and GasGas).
Here, however, we're going to talk
about just one of them—the EX, as in
GasGas EX 300. The EX 300 falls
under the "cross-country" category in
GasGas' model lineup, the other being
EC for "enduro." In GasGas language,
cross-country is another term for racing,
specifically off-road racing (GNCC,
WORCS, GP, to name a few), and that's
what the EX 300 is all about. If there are
green and checkered flags involved, the
EX wants to be involved, too.
THE GASGAS EX 300 IS ALL ABOUT GOING FAST
