txt joker Posted January 4, 2020 Report Share Posted January 4, 2020 Can some body tell me what’s going on with my bike. The frame no tells me it’s a 2001 txt 280,but I broke the middle exhaust box and ordered one using the part no from gasgas,it’s different from mine tho the one that came looks the same as the parts diagram and won’t fit. I’ve attached a photo,mine’s obviously is the dirty one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilko Posted January 4, 2020 Report Share Posted January 4, 2020 (edited) Well looking in the parts book looks like they have sent you the 125/200 middle box which is shorter. no 11 mid box is shorter BT120126020 .Should be no 12 BT280126020 Edited January 4, 2020 by Bilko 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txt joker Posted January 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2020 Cheers Bilko,I thought that to,but when you look at the front mounting it’s right on the collar.Both of them have it in the right place.The difference seems to be the hump where the rear/top mounting is,the squarish pad coming out is stopping it from going in and the rear box sits at a different angle,I had a look at the parts list for different years and can’t find one like mine.It’s got me stumped. I think I’ll resort to some old fashioned fettling with a 2lb ball pein hammer? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2stroke4stroke Posted January 5, 2020 Report Share Posted January 5, 2020 I'd fettle it by returning it to the supplier if it was me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
