Not sure about Israeli Investors,Israel doesn't have much of a Motorsport background but they are good at financial dealings,something reminds me of the odour of long dead rat

It'll go on with swapping the mounting bushes but it's a bit too long(10-15mm)from memory .I tried it on a2010 beta ,iI don't think the shocks have changed but it jacks the rear up too much

The 24mill debt is the bit investors don't want.If they do go bust the debt ends with the company,so it sounds likely this is the only way forward .This is legal in the UK (though wrong)don't know if it's legal in Spain

Fair enough I was wrong,good that they're supporting the event and their customers

Support for GasGas riders at the ssdt is through gguk not the factory

What do you expect the organisers to do,scrub the rocks clean before the trial?

Sounds like it's had a hard time if you're refreshing the top end and struggling with seized fasteners.Id go right over it and grease all the bolts and linkage bearings,do you know it's history?Preventative maintenance can save a lot of grief later on

Check the basics first .Ignition timing,clean air filter ,carb clean and check jetting,does the carb slide go all the way up,are the reeds ok?With older bikes that you dont know the history of never rule out anything.It shouldn't feel gutless whatever size it is and its most likely a 250 given what Lampkins said and the .compression it has .

At low revs I agree it sounds awful but pulls better than it sounds.Sounds completely different and better when revving higher.it flattened the climbs in Butser at the BTC

Rear spring wants to be 140mm long with the bike supported under the bash plate and the wheels off the ground Set the damping screw to middle and back both fork adjusters fully out

According to tmx Jack Sheppard has been to the factory and riding in Spain so it appears theyre still going wish theyd put us in the picture very unproffesional and dismissive of their customers

Looks wrong , is there a history of people injured by the normal ones?

Warm the swing arm up,hot enough so you can still touch it and use the sockets method with length of 12mm studding through them.You have to do the nuts up pretty tight but they will come out .Never failed yet

There's nothing local,nearest is Freestyle in Marks Cross near Heathfield which is about an hour away

Bet there's a tiny piece of kickstart gear embedded in one of the gears in the clutch casing .It didn't develop the noise when running but when you started it after working on it it knocked Take the clutch basket off and inspect the gear on the back of it ,the idler gear and crank gearClean all the oil off and use a magnifying glass,a.bit the size of gnats c--k will sound like the motors had it . had this problem 3 times in about 7 years

Main problem is there's nowhere else like Butser and many riders have never ridden anything like and consequently struggled,thankfully it didn't rain It was a bit too hard for most and the nature of the place can be a bit clean or 5.Casales is world class and he looked to be struggling all day so no wonder some lesser riders were less than impressed A championship should test riders on all types of going not just rock steps

.You don't need to loctite anything,just spannercheck it every 3or4 rides Loctite can make it difficult to remove things when necessary Better to copaslip all the fasteners so it will come to bits Mud and jet washing tends to seize things up

I saw it at Hookwoods today too. It looks well designed and made,not a copy of anything else.It sounds odd at low revs but does not appear to lack in this area,when it's wound on the exhaust note changes and it takes off quicker than anything else.I think the production model would need calming down for the majority but in the hands of a very good rider(Dabill)it appears a brilliant bike .Hope it works out for them

Goldfren work well and last too

Clear enough from the GasGas statement from Facebook

So the shareholders don't want to risk their own money,but want the smaller workforce to work for less.Sounds a great way to motivate the staff to make the bikes properly,feel sorry for them

There's been no photos of a complete prototype yet let alone a production one so I don't think we'll see one for a while.

Has to be the fan switch not making contact Fit a new one and it'll work fine .Doesnt sound like you've damaged anything

Try to start the descent as slow as possible,you can use a lot more front brake than you first think especially when its dry.Practise this before you try turning so you're not trying to learn 2 things at the same time. When turning get your weight well off the back and to the outside and get the bike slowl enough before you turn .When turning use the back brake.Its easier going left if you have to dab you can still hold the bike on the back brake.Like all techniques the more you do it the easier it becomes.Full lock is difficult as the front digs in and tucks under

Does the knock stop if you put the choke on?Cant get the video to play to hear it .Maybe the carb hasn't been reassembled right and its weak mixture is causing the knock .Idle screw wants to be about 3 turns out Go over what you've done,as the other post says washing it can't have created the noise
