Thanks SS109, that is exactly what I needed! I have downloaded it and will use it on future repairs/maintenance. have a great holiday!

I was able to get the clip off and remove the ball. clip was hanging me up, it didn't look like it could pop it off, but after a little prying it came right out. ya vice grips can be handy tools for certain jobs, but I knew things were not going as they were supposed to. that's why I took a...

or a place to find the actual service manual would prob be my best interest. i did find a link in one of the forums but i do not have a google account to open it. thanks

Doing the first piston change on my 18 EC 300. when I popped the linkage cover the retaining nut was backed off. looking at it i assume you thread the collar under the ball off and then you can remove the retaining clip that goes through the ball. I held the ball with vice grips and tried to...

winter jetting got the studded tires put on winter fun! I hadn't messed with the jetting as much as I would have liked so I took some time today to make another adjustment. AS: 3/4 pilot: 40 needle: NECW 3rd clip Main: 180 temp: 30F or -1C alt: 650ft or 200m premix: 50:1 I was at the 4th...

not a bad idea.... i studded up and rode well into winter last year, cant believe i even used that can for the sled but must have been a desperate "need to go and go now!" situation. i think i might switch back to something blue, altho the 927 does also smell great while weed wacking :D. the...

so dumb me, had my "pre-mix only" jug sitting in the garage over last winter. ive been using maxima 927 so no real color change when mixed.. im sure you know where this is going. some where over the winter i must have used the jug for the snowsled, dumped it in the bike this spring. started it...

moto center im on the east coast but have been buying from motocenter, they are on the ball and customer service is awesome!

gearing change ever since I got the 18 EC 300 I felt it had a little "dead" spot right off throttle. figured it was jetting or PV but after getting those where I liked it was still there. changed to 13/51 and bingo! liking the power much more now :D.

bummer... prob no kick start and will need a fan for cooling too... i will say that i am interested in the TPI tho...

first pic i have seen of a GG with the WP suspenders... (all beit a factory race bike). i then looked and the 2020 enduro models still have KYB (maybe b/c they were all ready making them before the merger.) either way found it interesting, i hope they stay with the KYB, but i think odds are...

Studded tires :) first time with studs and what a blast! only thing that can wipe the smile off is the shat E-start. i was already huffing and puffing from being stuck, having to kick it on a slippery side hill didnt help that :P

for those who have swapped out the factory hand guards on your 18+ gasgas... what did you use for the clutch and brake lever bolts. the ones that were on with the old hand guards are to long now... thanks!

video Thanks for the replies! I went out last night and started looking for / making harder nastier single track behind my place. I've never really rode true single track before but now that I've had a taste i want more :D. we don't get many hot days but the ones we do i will have to be out...

1st one under the belt alright I am back from vacation and have my first hare scramble under the belt! It was a BLAST, and i am now hooked. so how did i do?.... well not so good :). I started out in the back (as i planned) and the first wet snotty rooted hill (about 2 min in) there were...
