I can access the other 3 bolts without using the cut down allen wrench without splitting the case - clean them and loctite them.
Just glad it wasn't running full tilt and did this - GasGas must have a special tool just for this - even if you split the case it doesn't make it any easier to get...
I was able to cut down a allen wrench and get it in there.. This motor doesn't have many hours on it. We didn't find any sign of thread lock anywhere on the bolt.
Splitting the case wouldn't change the ability to getting a allen wrench into the this area.
It's been cleaned, and thread...
My bike has a 2013 GasGas 300 motor in it. My son went to start it and it stopped with a clunk. It wouldn't turn over with the starter - nor with the kick start. The following night I was able to push the piston down from where the spark plug is with ease - so it 100% wasn't seized..
I...
I have a seats concepts on the Christini - but it's No where close to being as comfortable as my GUTS seat on my WR450. I have a GUTS Comfort seat, it's absolutely awesome ! I believe this is the one for the Christini - http://www.gutsracing.com/CRF450X_COMFORT_SEAT_KIT_p/ckcr381.htm

Sounds like someone went wild with the pressure washer, didn't dry everything out, and repack everything with the right grease.
Break pads are a Normal change out usually needs to be done at least once a season depending on your riding style.
You'll be able to not worry about anything. HEY...
Worked out
Barbotte - I second that - Customer Support at Christini has been excellent. I finally have everything worked out.
My rekluse will slip if it's not in the correct gear - as in 4th when I should be in 2nd.
I have to say the AWD saved me 2 weeks ago going up a steep mud covered...
Are you talking about the AWD Clutch of the Rekluse ? I had to change oils with the Rekluse - anything with synthetic was slipping. I use Rotella T diesel oil - which you can get at any autozone - make sure to clean your cluthes and steels, lightly coat them with the Rotella oil. Shell...
I'll be trying a lectron carb
I have the clear tank on the Christini and it doesn't hold when I ran out of gas it only took 2 gallons - and there was just s little in the right side pocket.
I will be trying a lectron carb once I get my forks back - I'll keep you posted.

Oil wise - I'm using the Rotella 15W40 Triple T Engine Oil. I was using full synthetic and it was slipping a lot. It was still slipping a little bit Sunday - I backed off the Rekluse - and it was much better. I take it out of AWD on the road - and put it back in when the trails get bad -...
Rode 53 miles yesterday - rolling into the gas station with a dead bike - ran out of gas - it took 2 gallons. realistically 26 miles per gallon.
The bike power was good - burned relatively clean - only a little oil on the muffler. Had to adjust the rekluse - was slipping a little bit...
I pulled it off Craigslist - really don't want to give up on this bike - it's just awesome in the mud, steep hill climbs, and snow.
Tonight - I changed the float height once again - from 7 to 9mm - still smokey at idle - but it's idling now.
I put in the J&D Blue needle - clip 2 - Talk about...
I have the nedw, j&D - red and blue as well.
Last ditch effort - doing to drop the float height - change the needle to #3 Red.
Was seeing a ton of smoke last night
pilot jet is at 40
Main is at 175
Jakobi - any other ideas ? I also have a #7 slide in it. Should I try the 42 Pilot even...
