Overview

Introducing the 2007 GAS GAS EC300, a motorcycle that stands as a testament to the brand's commitment to delivering exceptional performance in the enduro-offroad category. Renowned for its nimble handling and rugged durability, the EC300 is designed to tackle the toughest terrains while offering riders a thrilling experience. With its striking red, black, and white color scheme, this bike not only catches the eye but also embodies the spirit of adventure that defines GAS GAS. Whether you’re carving through dense woods or navigating rocky trails, the EC300 is ready to deliver a ride that’s as exhilarating as it is dependable. At the heart of the EC300 lies a potent single-cylinder, two-stroke engine with a displacement of 294cc. This powerhouse is engineered for performance, featuring a bore and stroke of 72mm x 72mm, which allows for a balanced power delivery that’s responsive yet manageable. The Keihin PWK 38mm carburettor ensures precise fuel delivery, while the digital magnetic flywheel ignition provides reliable starting and smooth throttle response. With a 6-speed gearbox and a hydraulic multidisc clutch, riders can effortlessly shift through gears, making the EC300 not only fun on the trails but also capable of tackling more technical sections with ease. The liquid cooling system keeps the engine temperature in check, allowing for consistent power throughout long rides. The EC300 showcases advanced engineering with its Deltabox frame made from rectangular-profile Cr-Mo tubing, which provides both strength and lightness. The suspension setup is equally impressive, featuring an upside-down Marzocchi fork at the front with 295mm of travel and a progressive system with an Öhlins shock absorber at the rear offering 310mm of travel. This combination results in superior handling and comfort, absorbing bumps and jumps with grace. The braking system, equipped with single discs at both the front (260mm) and rear (220mm), ensures confident stopping power, giving riders the control they need in challenging environments. With an overall weight of just 99 kg (218.3 pounds) and a seat height of 940 mm (37 inches), the EC300 is accessible and agile, making it a favorite among both novice and experienced riders. In summary, the 2007 GAS GAS EC300 is not just a bike; it’s a finely-tuned instrument for adventure enthusiasts. Whether you’re a seasoned racer or a weekend warrior, this motorcycle promises to elevate your offroad experience with its impressive blend of power, technology, and handling.
