  1. They are a pig to start, very hit and miss, I'm thinking of selling my 2022 as my right knee is a bit loose and the constant kicking and sudden stop on the foot peg is not good, I find if I can lean it against a tree and stand high in the pegs it starts easy, Obviously not easy stalled in an offcamber muddy hill, I might go TRS lecky start
  2. Has anyone got a good used they want to part with?
  3. I just changed from a '20repsol to a '22 GG TXT 250Pro. I did 60hr in the Repsol, couldn't really adapt to it, great bike but the switch to 2/ has been a correct choice. If you look after any bike it will be reliable, depreciation... Thanks a different story
  4. That's correct, DC dies a rack that takes the bac rak into consideration, still using it and no issues with the set up
  5. I did combine a series of tools in the garage and cobbled a holding tool together,
  6. So I thought I'd say how it went, firstly I'm not a good rider, balance is not my friend. I like a soft engine.so fitted a flywheel weight, the engine had had a few heat cycles and an hour playing around the front of the house. Firstly it's a bugger to start..... I hope it'll.get better once it's got a few hours on it. I also have a number 3 slide and a different pilot jet waiting.to.go in once it's really bedded in. Overall I really like it, feels stable.and steering is predictable, it doesn't want to tuck like the Beta I had. Engine feels good, strong but a nice predicable power curve. Brakes are good seemingly the same as fitted to the repsol but the Repsol seem better, I wonder if braktec do different levels of quality? But again only a couple of hours on them so may improve. Overall happy with the change of bike
  7. I think it pretty dumb to run any engine in old oil. Yes it's expensive, £10a go?2 pints of beer?? The oil breaks down and loses its protective ability not to mention circulation all the debris it might hold in suspension. On a £7k retail price bike. I swapped oil every 16hrs, filter 32hrs
  8. To my first.trial on the new txt 250, after only have 4t bikes it'll be interesting.
  9. If you divide the rear sprocket by the front it'll give you a ratio, mix various options and see which is different but close to original ratio and buy that pair of sprockets
  10. I always inspect the fibres on every bike and usually do the clutch beta fix first, that usually smoothes it all out , the dimple steels just allow less suction, beta fix does the same and filing the tangs down aids smooth travel if the fibre plates, free to do
  11. The montesa weights more, you can feel the difference when picking the back up against my 2022 GasGas, but on the course you don't notice it and the mont is very planted, maybe just not as nimble for moving around when stationary
  12. I have the same set up in same car, detachable tiw bar, it took a while to settle and I kept tightening the bolt I have no issues with it at all
  13. I sorted the clutch by doing the beta clutch fix and the ATF dextrose 3..., It was completely different I also took 2 springs out.
