splitpin Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 Does anybody have any news as to what the 2013 Randonne specification will be. Will it just be an update of the current 125 or will have a bigger engine and 6 speeds? The 2012MY non EU unit seen on the Japanese market does have some differences, seat, exhaust, sump guard and fork/fork angle. Be grate if Gas Gas revised the specification and used the same engine unit as used in the Rieju MRT 200 Pro Comp which presumably comes from the same Millarelli/Yamaha source.

andyrothers Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 I think the Rieju 200 engine is watercooled and based on the latest WR/YZF 125 motor. I would be surprised if there was any major change to the current engine. I'm not even sure the randonne motor is the same as the yam engine which is in the scorpa sourced from brazil. I think most of the Yam YBR clones (maybe randonne also) are Zhongdu (spelling??) I did see somebody on ebay recently selling 150 big bore kits.

splitpin Posted July 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 Thanks for the info Andy, looking to buy a Randonne but would like the bike to have a bigger engine with a bit more grunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyrothers Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 They say size isn't everything... Try one which has been sorted (exhaust, gearing etc) you may be surprised...? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splitpin Posted July 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Ordered bike and exhaust this morning. Be grateful if anybody has any tips on what gearing I require and any other tuning mods, such as removing the engine breather etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
