Found it over in IA, went and got it, made out better then I had planned. The guy I got it from was nice fella worked at Polaris building Victory and Indian bikes.
It has had a bit of work done to it. A couple years ago I had my Beta suspension worked over by  Les Tinius @ http://www.lt-racing.com/index.html (http://www.lt-racing.com/index.html) He did a great job and was really knowledgeable on the Zokes and Sachs components, anyhow turns out he used to have the GasGas aftermarket parts market cornered. Les had jet kits, cnc machined water pump impeller, PowerValve, chain guides, case savers... all of which this new to me EC300 has on it. cool to see.

anyway we are going to give it a try as a short range woods weapon, it may or may not get a rekluse depending on how cheap I can score one, going to try to keep this a dirt cheap fun bike.
Had a new set of tires on it too!

Very cool.   I just sold my smoker. No doubt they are a blast in the woods.  I'd like to get a 300 sometime.
