Guys. I have a customer that owns a EC300. Looks like the vin is engraved and not stamped. Is this common on GasGas bikes? And where else would GasGas hide the VIN?

I have seen this before on KTMs. Not that familiar with GasGases.

Same motors I believe. As far as I can tell this look like OE but the structure is wrong.

Sorry, Ace, can't help you there. But your post did remind me of a great Rolling Stones song, Jumpin' Jack Flash.

Sorry, Ace, can't help you there. But your post did remind me of Marcus Bailey, who led the rebuild on the 77 Low Rider. He went to HD training in Milwaukee, and as part of his certification he got an official Harley Davidson set of...what to call them...those things you put on metal and whack with a big hammer to punch a number or letter into the metal to make VIN numbers with.

I wonder what happened to them when he died a few years ago...you could rule the world with a set of those.

what pplasm said +1, you're thinkin' Betas which use KTM LC4 motors,and link rear suspension, like KTM should,or should not,depending who u ask. They have their own now,me thinks ... take the new 350 SX, with,or without a link...

A gas mixture would contain a variety of pure gases much like the air. What distinguishes a gas from liquids and solids is the vast separation of the individual gas particles. This separation usually makes a colorless gas invisible to the human observer. The interaction of gas particles in the presence of electric and gravitational fields are considered negligible as indicated by the constant velocity vectors in the image.
