chris falcon Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Hi Guys, I would appreciate any advice given on this subject. I am giving serious thought to buying a Jotagas, my currant bike is Gas Gas txt pro 300. What is the power ratio like for different size engines available in comparison to the Gasser, my 300 had to be tamed quite a lot for me to handle. Many thanks Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
furse Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 More than half the riders out their are over cc'd with their bike, a 200cc would be ample, you just might have to wait a while till they make one, try a 200 evo, I think you will be suprised 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gasgas249uk Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 Hi Chris Ive got a 300 Jotagas 2013 and absolutely love it.Im a novice /intermediate rider down south. I would be a novice up your way where trials are a bit harder. The Jotagas power is very very soft. Ive ridden a Gasser 300 and the Jotagas is much softer. It grips so well as it isn't over powered. Id say the 300 Gasser is a quicker with more aggressive power. Superb in the right hands but more power. The Jotagas handles really well and the suspension is brilliant. Im 13.5 stone and glad i went for the 300. The 250 would have probably been fine as well. Hope this helps. Cheers James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers James Thanks for that James, it is as I imagined and from hearing from one or two that have riden a Jotagas. I have a 9 front sprocket and a 42 rear on my 300 and am thinking of changing that to a 44, I also fitted a head spacer to cool it a little more. I love the bike but I get the feeling when riding it, that it could take me in to a whole lot of trouble in an instant : ) I will try to get a ride on a Jatagas in the near future, I just love the look of them for sure..

I could probably do with riding it for a week or two to make me keen to get back to my own bike, never understand why people make life as hard as poss for them selves : ) Cheers Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
telecat Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 Funny Really as My Son has tried the Jotagas and reckons it has more power than the 300 Gas Gas. A local rider also had the 2012 and thought the 2013 300 a bit too much for him. Probably a 250 might be the better compromise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
