    New 2012 GasGas

    Hi Clay I would like to see the new air box set up were they will place the battery now as a new air box has to be made and tell everyone if the new power valve will be fitted like some photos showed. I know it must be frustrating for you but owners would like to see all this. I know the bike...

    New 2012 GasGas

    If Gas Gas are producing the bikes at the beginning of December why wont they release photos and details. Don't they understand what they are doing not keeping everyone up to date. I would say they would of lost a lot of sales and I think a lot more will be lost if they don't let customers...

    New 2012 GasGas

    I was told that the new Power valve and Cylinder is only for the replica bikes and not the EC250/300 standard bikes. Can someone tell me if this is true? Gas Gas have photos of the standard bike with the new cylinder but it is hard to know what we are getting as things seem to change between...

    Can I get a 2010 GG 450 in the US?

    I was told Australia was the only market to get the 2011 450 4T. They sell quite a few, and are still regarded as one of the best 450 around. I can not understand why they did not sell in the US. I just hope Gas Gas don't do something stupid and drop it from there range or worse still put an...

    2011 Nambotin and Cervantes Info

    The new 48 Zokes are a completely new with twin chamber, they are diffident and from all reports very impressive. Why are so many people hung up about new forks, I see most riders get them re valved anyway weather they need it or not. Ride a two year old bike and a new bike and see how much...

    Any news on the 2011 450's

    I was in Queanbeyan (Dahlitz m/c) and they had one. I think they have only just landed in Australia. when I asked about world 4T sales I was told Australia is about the 3rd biggest seller of the Gas Gas 450 and I think thats because the distributor did all the early work to get them road...

    Any news on the 2011 450's

    EC450 in OZ In Australia the EC450 is one of Gas Gas best selling bikes. I had a look at the 2011 model yesterday and it looks great. Same plastics as the 2011 2T and red frame, Renthal twin wall bars, wave disc, Pro- grips and other trick bits. In Australia the 450 has won a lot of magazine...

    clutch squeel

    This is not the mod needed for the Gas Gas. Yes this helps but I am talking about the webbing between the fingers on the clutch basket. The Yamaha in this image has no webbing between the fingers, but the early Gas Gas do. The extra oil flow also keeps the clutch running cooler. Check with Gas...

    clutch squeel

    To fix the clutch squeal you need to remove the clutch basket, than drill 8mm holes as low as possible in each of the webbing at the bottom of the basket that are between the (lets call them post) this allows more oil flow. If you have a look at the 2011 basket Gas Gas have changed this to fix...

    NEW! GasGas EC250 4-stroke w/Yamaha Engine!

    I think Gas Gas are doing the wrong thing with this. 1st: I think you will find that Gas Gas are going to use a 2006 WR 250 motor, a good motor but out dated.I have checked with Gas Gas and this is correct. 2nd: Gas Gas are not renowned for parts books on limited model run and although it is a...

    What do you think of the Gas Gas Spain web site?

    I think it's about time Gas Gas Spain updated their web site. If you go into the English side most of it is in Spanish. It would be one of the worst sites for Gas Gas on the web. How do we get them to update it and get some news in English so we can be updated with the latest news? What sites...

    Low Oil light at idle

    All bikes in Australia had a recall for the clutch covers. If the crank seal in the clutch cover is faulty it loses oil pressure. Some times it could be just a faulty switch. You will se that Gas Gas fixed this on the 08 bikes by removing the switch.
