Hi all I have a 1999 ec 250, will a 2002 gearbox fit from the same model bike ?

Hi guys, problem started last week. Bike would start first kick, great. It would run great but as soon as I let off throttle it would die and start great again, not a fueling issue. I put it down to electrics, tore everything apart and fixed it by finding my battery was unplugged (to do with...

Did the reed spacer being removed make a huge difference? How much would a 2k2 ignition set me back? Also isn't the gnarly exhaust the one for more bottom end grunt/power?

Hi guys looking to make my 2007 250 a bit more aggressive. Gearing: 13-50 Jetting: 178 main 42 pilot Clip 3 One thing I have noticed is the bike has a reed spacer, would removing this give me much benefit?

Hi guys I have a Gas Gas ec 250 that I need a new silencer for as mine has broken. The problem is I don't know exactly what year my bike is, it was registered on 1st december 2006 which makes me think it's a 2007 bike, I have put pictures below. What silencers cross over?

Hi guys, had my 250 now for 2 months or so but it still seems extremely heavy compared to other bikes I've used (crf 250, kx 125, ktm 125) I understand the above bikes aren't similar but my GG feels so much heavier to the point I am considering another bike, is it normal they weigh a lot or do...

Hi guys I somehow lost the little plate that the exhaust bolts onto in the middle, this area: I have looked in the diagram and can't find the part number! Anyone have it?

My KTM barrel is with them atm! Expecting it back within the next few days. What was the turnaround and price for you mate?

I never take the water pump cover off when I am taking off my right side case, I believe it's one bolt going through the cover that goes into the case that you have to loosen same as the 2 in the clutch cover.

That's the thing - it was previously welded! I have had it welded again hopefully this time it holds up. I think before the person I had weld it made it really nice and tidy and made it nice and flat meaning only a tiny bit of weld existed if that makes sense. We will see if this weld holds up...

If I can find the plate :( It seems like the normal places seem to be out of stock. Hopefully someone in the UK has stock.

Well, I feel really annoyed at myself. When I took the bike out and it was spluttering originally the first thing I checked was the powervalve, I took the cover off and put the exhaust back on and revved the bike and the powervalve opened fine, I checked the nut on the stud that keeps the arm...

I had a quick look today and I noticed this thing was bent and one f the wires were showing, I don't think it used to be like this. I did crash from around 5ft in the air the last time I rode it so I think it's from then but it was already spluttering so I doubt it's this causing it but what is...

Also I will try changing the spark plug cap, are they universal? I have access to a kx 125, crf 250, crf 250 and a ktm 125. Which would work best? Also how would I go about spotting a bad crank seal? I thought the bike would smoke a lot more than usual? Can I buy the seals at a local...

Okay I will check out the piston tomorrow, what sort of measurements am I looking for? Does a guide exist?
