Thoughts people! (new bike)
 
I'm now in NZ and am looking for a second-bike for off-road and getting round town. Last time Hovis, suggested a DR350, which was awesome, so I'm looking at a couple of those again, but I have also come across this:

It seems pretty good and although I have heard of Gas Gas, I don't know much about them. Does anyone have any thoughts??

Thanks
Luke

it's basically the spainish take on the CCM 404 I have, it's a DRZ engine ( so bits are standard Suzuki), with fancy bits bolted on, should be fun and more poke than a DR350.

cheers Mark.

GASGAS make some pretty good enduro machines, seem sturdy enough but not my thing though..I'm a KTM man :cool:

the white rabbit is probably one of the guys to ask

im more just into trials, which is great fun, and im just about to road reg my beta, but they are not realy built for speed or long distance, i think they do about 50mph tops

gas gas enduros seem ok, but i would go for honda,ktm or drz
