tilertrialler Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 Hi try this site its for gas gas manuals http://www.lmcc.co.uk/gas_gas_manuals.htm I had a 99 andorra, my first modern after twinshocks great bike, traded it for a beta not sure it was a great move, a lot of people prefer the txt to the pros. I was told the only difference with the andorra were the graphics no other change to a txt , cant swear on it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I know, the "Andorra" designation referred to graphics, rather than mechanical differences. The "2002", I'm guessing, is just the end numbers of the parts number of the swingarm. The 2000 on up models were at the end of their evolutionary chain and quite bulletproof if taken care of in a reasonable way (i.e. as recommended). As in buying any used bike, do NOT make any assumptions as to the level of care from the previous owner. You'll want to check and lube ALL bearings on the whole bike and refresh all fluids if you want reliable performance in the future.

funtrials Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 (edited) Yes, that's a pretty good site...that's the source I first thought about: http://www.trialspartsusa.com/tech.html Too bad the factory doesn't have a site (in English) where someone could order EVERYTHING GasGas-related. That's a good suggestion for them. Edited July 17, 2008 by Funtrials Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a good suggestion for them. I've found a site in Germany: http://www.gasgas.de/ but the early parts lists are essentially unreadable, even in Spanish. The TrialsPartsUSA is about the best I know of for all-around info. Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyh Posted July 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 many thanks for the replies. just been out today (Warden Law, Seaham) and it performed great. very responsive and torquey. different to the TY250 Mono ive just sold. downloaded the strange parts guide (pictures instead of CAD drawings) and the 'how to understand the chassis number. i ran the bike with 100ml oil per 5l of petrol. seems ok. again cheers and happy trialing. andyh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
