  1. Quite like the look of the ossa.. It's same weight as gas gas too ... Tempting .. Need a test ride
  2. So guys I am selling my 2002 gas gas which is going to fetch me a grand , so I've got a 4 grand budget for my next adventure ..... In your humble opinions .. Best bike for that mooney or save another 2? Grand and wait for the vertigo .....
  3. BAng on tltel .. After a new on next . Methinks
  4. All the jobs defo needed doing ... Nothing left on pads . No needles left in bearings .. Hydraulic oil was black etc etc ... If I took a grand for it .. Grim I paid 900 for it . .. First bike I've bought .. Newby mistake .. It's mint now . . Prob better of keeping it .. Everything bar the engine is new
  5. It must be higher in value than I paid as I have spent over 550 doing it up
  6. The bike was wet in this picture ..that's the discolouration on frame .. It's not got a mark on frame .just the rain

    Valuation

    Last post now as I have two on the go.. So can I get some advice .. I recently bought a 2003 txt pro 280 .. I have serviced it .. Changed all hydraulic oils ...front and rear pads ..front and rear wheel bearing ... All rear suspension linkage bearings .. New talon chain and sprockets ... New chain tensioner .. New clutch .. New steering bearings .. New fork oil and seals ... Kicks first time ... Anyone help with an honest asking price as I want a raga rep now .. Thanks
  8. Thanks .. I pulled wheel back way too far !
  9. If you mind ... What's the cost .. Looks decent .. Buts that's just looks .. U seen it in person
  10. Reassembled .. Everything still bouncy .... See how it goes
  11. Thanks 'thatsafive' .. I will prob pick up a few tomorrow .. 5s that is .... Ha .. I'm going for it
  12. I bought my lad one of them japenese dirt bikes for crimbo and they don't even have dog bones .. Just straight spring connected to swing arm ... Surely for one light run the gas gas will be ok .... What's the worst that could happen ...there will be no steps or anything .. Any advice welcome
  13. On closer inspection . Two needles intact ..one stripped .. One half left ...
  14. Thanks for the advice ... Better keep it garaged ..
  15. All fallen out in two and half in other two ....
  16. Hey all .. Just giving my bike a once over today ready for a clubman novice easy going trial tomorrow . I wanted to regrease linkage. But came to find the dog bone bearings pretty shot and defo need changing .... Long story short I don't want to miss this trial tomorrow but can't get the parts whilst tomorrow afternoon...., will it be safe to reassemble now with the shot bearings and take it anyway .. Thanks guys

    Linkage

    So guy I am after relubing my pro 280 2002 linkage .. There is a bolt on kick start side which runs through swinging arms .. Does this need to be removed ?? I loosed.it hen was worried the back end would come off so retightened .. Do arms need to be removed for relube .. Thanks
  18. I run it at 70;1 and she's not smokey at all with fuel screw 3 turns out .. Oh well just got back from a three hour ride and to be honest the bikes never ran better ..thanks guys
  19. Like I said Jon its running sweet ...baffling.. No smoke fro exhaust .. Could it be a major issue
  20. Hi all, just a quick question as it's baffling me .. My gas gas is running sweet as a nut but gear oil keeps dropping ... I keep topping it up every second ride to half the sight window on flat ground and after two rides it's just a bottom of sight window .. I am oiling bike when stone cold each time .. Wheres the oil going .. There are defo no leaks as the bike lives indoors on wood floor and theres never a drip between rides. Thanks
