2025 Gas Gas EC 300 EC

Rev up your imagination because the 2025 GASGAS EC 300 isn’t just another enduro,it’s a two-stroke thumper that punches way above its weight and sits toe-to-toe with the legendary KTM 300 EXC family of bikes.

Built for riders who demand explosive power, nimble handling, and real dirt-slaying capability, this machine blends iconic Austrian engineering with GASGAS’s own spirited personality.


Heart & Engine

At the center of the EC 300 is a liquid-cooled, 293.2 cc two-stroke single-cylinder powerhouse, the same basic recipe that’s made the KTM 300 so revered.

With bore and stroke both at 72 mm, this engine delivers a torquey, explosive powerband that makes technical climbs, tight singletrack and open-trail blasts equally thrilling.

Gearbox & Chassis, Built for Trail Domination

Paired with a 6-speed gearbox and slick, reliable transmission, the EC 300 is agile and confident when things get rough.

Its central double cradle chromoly steel frame strikes a balance between rigidity and compliance, exactly what you want when navigating rocky climbs and fast flowing singletrack.

Suspension duties are handled by WP units front and rear, ensuring the bike soaks up chatter and stays planted where it matters.

Dimensions & Weight – Perfectly Balanced

The 2025 EC 300 sits in the same ballpark as its KTM cousin:

Wheelbase: ~1,489 mm — identical to the KTM, giving you predictable agility.

Seat Height: ~956 mm — comfortable yet aggressive stance.

Fuel Capacity: ~9 L — plenty for big days out.

Dry Weight: ~107.6 kg — just a hair above the KTM’s ~104.6 kg, and still light for its class.

?? GASGAS EC 300 vs. KTM 300 EXC Side-by-Side Fun

What makes this comparison juicy is just how similar these two bikes really are.

The EC 300 and KTM 300 EXC share almost identical powerplants and core geometry, so you get the best traits of the KTM DNA with a GASGAS twist. Both bikes offer:

Liquid-cooled two-strokes with EFI and electric start

6-speed gearboxes geared for trail versatility

Techie-friendly chassis geometry and suspension travel

Big 260 mm front and 220 mm rear brakes with solid stopping power

Same wheel sizes 21" front, 18" rear for traction and control in rough stuff

9 L fuel capacity for all-day rides deep in the woods.
