telecat Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 TXT was stopped in around 2005. Frame and engine were pretty conventional think Old Sherco. The TXT Pro has the Lighter frame and Engine. In the case of the Engine the main feature is the small gearbox allowing the whole thing to be tightly packaged. Usually comes with a Delorto carb and a Sachs Shock As of 2008 The TXT Pro got a tubular as opposed to the old Elliptical frame. in 2011 the frame gained a triangular section and a new airbox from the Raga. The RAGA tends to have a Kehin Carb and whatever Rear shock is "in" at the time as well as high compression head, Various "trick" components with regard to headstock Carbon exhaust etc. Lately it introduced the Reiger Shock, previously it tended to have an Ohlins.. Usually the 125/250 sometimes come with a Delorto carb depending on the Year. Usually it has the frame for the bike's that come in the next model year. For example the 2010 version had the New Frame and Airbox that appeared on the 2011 bike The Racing is usually based on the current model year bike and usually gets a Kehin and a lower grade of "trick" shock. Still an improvement but it's usually a "clearout" bits bike. Still Good if the "bits" are what you are after. So TXT the "old" bike. TXT PRO uses the Small engine and has standard bits RAGA Has a number of parts to make it more powerful and supple. Usually has the New Parts that the following years bike will have. Racing Usually That Years bike with Parts to make it more powerful and the Suspension better. I think it uses parts up they are wanting to shift or tests parts for the RAGA using a simpler version.
