The new bikes don't bother me as much as the service and the parts. I would drive 8 hours round trip to buy a bike. I am not going do that very often. I have taken this year off from racing, but I'm buying parts almost every week when I'm chasing points. This shop is located at a track. Many...

As some of you may have found out a longtime Gasgas dealer Sante fe Trail cycle in Carbondale Kansas in no longer a Gasgas dealer. What a shame. I can't blame Paul I'm sure the flooring program expires, and this current economy should teach us that you can't eat a leftover motorcycle.

I broke a linkage rocker the evening before a race when I was chasing the overall in our series. This dealer let me come and take one off a new bike at midnight on a saturday. The internet is not going to cut it in most of my situations. I think this is something to think about when looking into...

His original agreement could have been honored just like all the previous importers did. That would have been pretty easy. There are no throwing good money after bad posts posts coming from his customers.

I don't know about the new importer. I know many of us in Kansas are not happy, since we don't have a dearer anymore.

Sounds like where the cases go together and the gasket is gone in that area. If so and if were mine I would replace the center case gasket.

If you are not interested I wouldn't mind a crack at it. I would try to get it for less because of my drive time and fuel.

$900 doesn't sound too bad. worst case use it for parts. It looks to be a 2000. I would buy it if it was in my neck of the woods. I just bought a 1999 200 off craiglist that is next to new besideds being flipped.

The bike I got back was very dear to me. I won the the 2004 FMHSC championship on it. At a real nasty race that year. One of the National riders showed up [Justin Williamson], Well Its my Al Bundy 3 touch downs in a single game story. I really love thinking about that race. I rode like a dream...

I got my 2003 300 back. The 2005 is still on the loose. One of my friends found the bike. It had been well abused while it was away. It looked like it was being riden a the spark plud cap came off and it was dumped where it quit running. Progressive is taking a look at it next week. The pipe...

I imagine once they find out there not yamaha's They are going to be bummed. I've been staying kind of silent on the local seen in hopes that someone will try to sell them to someone that knows me. It happen once before with my son's bike. I am a man with many friends and acquaintances, and...

I had a 2003 ec 300 that was Kansas tagged ser# vtrec300d1124012 and a 2005 ec 300 ser# vtrec300f0844029. If would be nice if they would be returned. The 2003 is the bike I won the overall on in the FMHS championship. It has sentimental value and I never intended to get rid of it. I'm pretty...

Did you try with the kill switch totally unplugged?

Weedeater with a chainsaw style brush blade, dirtbike and a paint ball gun.

I use soapy water. Instead of a just seeing if it holds pressure. If it leaks oil it will leak air even worse. I drain the oil first when checking the water pumps in this manner.
