Green plastic
I like the idea of changing the colour cause hardly anyone around here knows what a GAS GAS is or what country they come from.I've just recieved my 08 BALLARDS off road catalogue and inside its got some new type of vented front fenders in a range of colours, here's the web site...
Hand Gaurds
I'm not sure if you get these over there but BarkBusters do ones for Gas Gas .I brought a set for my 06 450, I can tell you from having a couple of decent stacks the Bark Busters have saved all the controls and apart from the plastis on the gaurds being scratched no other damage.:cool:
module burnout

coolant overflow
No worries Brian its still pumping a flow an yesterday when i started the bike to check the oil level and also went for a ride to the shop no probs with it until this morning:confused:
Just went for a ride on my 06 450 an noticed a constant flow out of my overflow hose? The bike was just serviced by me and the coolant was changed about 3 months ago and have had no probs on other rides with overflow.I'm thinking that it might be a stuck or a sticky thermostat any ideas would be...
Bike Numbers
Yeah i know some of the bikes aren't what they are printed as but that has some thing to do with the program, but they are a great crew and as bike riders all over we all enjoy the same thing getting on ya bike and having a :D great time in the process
