ba baraccus Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 Its really difficult to say! Your best off looking for ads of the same bike to gauge what its worth, if you are part exing tho just take it to the shop and see what they offer you!

lewis_gasgas Posted April 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 Yeh thanks guys , ive seen that one on ebay but thanks anyway james , ill see i will need to earn myself some more spare money 1st before i do any more investing in a newer bike.

bikespace Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 (edited) Some people had good 2002's. A lot had nightmares with them. The 2002 280 TXT Pro was my return to trials after 16 years. I suppose my bike doesn't get an easy time, but I spent around Edited April 1, 2005 by bikespace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james111089 Posted April 2, 2005 Report Share Posted April 2, 2005 [in my view the 2002 Pro had many new ideas. The bike is a dream to ride, but a nightmare to keep in one piece.] Arnt all gassers a nightmare to keep in one piece James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neonsurge Posted April 2, 2005 Report Share Posted April 2, 2005 Lew-GasGas, if you're who I think you are(!?) you might remember Steve M who used to ride with us and had an '02 250 Pro. He had no end of problems with the bike, the most serious of which was repeated water pump seal failures. It took a complete rebuild by GasGas themselves to finally fix it but by then (at which point the bike had spent more time in pieces than complete since he bought it), he (and everyone else!) had lost all confidence in the bike and got rid. The later models ('03 on) seem to be much better, but there are no end of horror stories about the '02s. I'd steer clear if I were you.

lewis_gasgas Posted April 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2005 Are you the ones who take the lad around with the fantic? Or you could be the ones who my mate asked about going through the river or up the hill down near the pump house ? You could have seen me last year riding a white gas gas with a big petty tank on top. ----------------------------------- Lewis Gas Gas Tx 250 Contact Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recognize me ?? Errrm, nope. I guess you're not who I thought you were There seem to be quite a few SDMC people 'round here these days and if I see you I'll be sure to say hello. I usually ride with lastplacebrad - I'm on a nekkid '04 Beta (I removed all of the stickers to save weight ) and Brad rides an '03 250 Pro.

heathy Posted April 3, 2005 Report Share Posted April 3, 2005 Your best bet is probably part exing it for a new bike. I used my gas gas JTX 250 in part ex for my sherco 290 and got Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, that was us. It was Ian Austermuhle that we were watching practising. That lad's a bit handy, ain't he? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
