So I thought I would toss my thoughts out on those two bikes now that I have ridden both. Buddy just picked up a brand spanking new 2015 Beta 300RR. I have also ridden Bills Demo GG300. First off both bikes are VERY nice, no doubt about that. Both very powerful. Funny thing is they feel remarkably similar to me. The GG seems to be a bit smoother and easier to control in the motor department. Similar but the GG might be better for my needs but in the end both have about 20 more HP than I really need. Both feel natural and easy to jump on and rail. Nothing odd or major adjustments needed in riding style. Both have concrete seats. Both have semi harsh forks but good rear ends. The Beta feels slightly lighter but this is going from memory and different ride areas. Both very good bikes that are well appointed. I could own either of them and be happy. What surprised me in the end was how similar they felt to me. All the things I disliked applied to both bikes, seat and forks. All the things I liked did too, great motors, nice feel, good bikes. Lots a great bikes out there these days.
