Review
The 2014 GAS GAS EC Racing 300 E takes the standard EC 300 E and adds a sharper edge for competitive enduro riding. Like the base model, it utilizes a 299.3cc two-stroke engine, but this Racing version likely features tweaks to the engine and suspension to enhance performance. The seat height is slightly lower at 950mm, potentially offering a bit more confidence for some riders. The weight is also reduced to 109 kg, contributing to improved agility and responsiveness. This model retains the 9.5-liter fuel tank and six-speed gearbox of the standard EC 300 E, providing a similar range and versatility. However, the suspension setup is likely upgraded, though the provided information only specifies the same Marzocchi Shiver inverted 45mm fork. The 'Racing' designation suggests internal modifications for improved damping and control. The braking system consists of a single front disc with a two-piston caliper. The 2014 GAS GAS EC Racing 300 E is aimed at more experienced enduro riders who demand a higher level of performance. The lighter weight and potentially enhanced suspension make it better suited for tackling challenging terrain at speed. It's a good choice for those who participate in enduro races or demanding trail rides and want a bike that can handle the rigors of competition.
