August 25, 200818 yr Has anyone ridden the new gassers? Thinking about a 280 or 300, but not sure if the new ones are much better than th 08's (They are cheap new now). Thanks.
August 25, 200818 yr I've ridden a 250,better steering and slightly lighter than the previous model,footrests seemed lower and further back giving a better riding position.It's definitly better than an 08 if you can afford it,I don't know the price difference between the 2
August 26, 200818 yr The 09 will always be worth more than an 08. The 09 - new frame - will always be easier to sell..... Having made the switch - but also gone from 250 to 300 - I'd say get the 09. Chassis feels more stable, more "planted". It keeps a line better, less deflection & gives the rider confidence it'll absorb the hit & stay on line. Easier to work on - tidier & more room. Only slight downside is it feels a little heavier on the front - but maybe that's a 300 characteristic....
