I did ride the new Betas last fall and quite liked them. They were very easy to ride. However, I've only had a few brief moments on a newer Gasser, so didn't get a real chance to really get a feel for them. If I was buying a Beta, I would probably get the regular RR version with Sachs forks...

The 12's and '13's are heavy. My '12 probably weighs about 260-270 ready to ride*. However, it is a real war horse and keeps going pretty much no matter what. Over 380 hrs on it and only one top end and a couple suspension refreshes. (not counting a broken PFP a while back........) I do the...

It is bone stock except for the clutch lever and possibly the gear lever. It also has all the items that are typically missing on these bikes; kickstand, grab handle, heat guard on exp chamber, crossbar pad, airbox, various bolts, etc., side panels, etc. etc. I think it has relatively low...

This hopped in the back of my truck when I wasn't paying attention yesterday. It wanted to come home with me. OK. Had one as a kid. I guess I'll see about restoring it. 1980 Honda CR80R Elsinore.

Nice write-up and pics! There are a couple schools of thought about the chainguard bolt/nut. Captive nuts are nice, until they aren't; ie. when they spin inside the parent material. That usually causes swearing...... :) The bolt/nut method GG uses avoids that problem. It may not be quite as...

So Rick, Have you put any scuffs and scratches on that GP yet? :D

I have 2012 EC250 with E-start. The e-start button that GG uses isn't fully waterproof, so the contact disc gets rusty every so often, rendering the button non-functional. I then have to disassemble it, clean it and put everything back together. I'd like something that's a bit more robust and...

I've had one for 2 full seasons & these are some things I like about the Smart Carb- No more fuel dumping out an overflow line. Used to be a problem having fuel dumped in the bed of my pickup, or in someones trailer. I can't be bothered, nor can remember to turn the fuel off during transit. No...

David Knight is coming over to compete in the 2018 Corduroy Enduro, as well as a few events in the US. He will be riding a GG 300.

Sounds like there may be some type of a short somewhere.....?

I bought a 250 because I found it a good compromise between a 200 and a 300. Doesn't surprise you, or overwork you like a 300 can & will still get up and go as well as climb hills better than a 200. 200's are a lot of fun, especially with a Rekluse. However, they are also a bit of extra work to...

What is the process to remove the adjuster/spring and floating piston assembly? This issue has happened to me twice in the last 2-3 years, both on the same fork. First time, the side of the groove for the snap ring broke away, allowing the adjuster to pop out of the top of the fork like in the...

I need the pfp adjuster mechanism with clicker assy

Rod- Why no EC 250? Personally, I like 250's and also want lights etc.
