Newer Plastic on Older GasGas show your bike

Thanks for the pictures, guys, and sorry to thread jack. I have the tail light support on my bike, but it's coming off soon for an upcoming race (Desert 100!). I see how you both have it mounted, and that makes great sense. I will likely do the same if you both agree that it's strong enough back there with those little 5mm bolts. Better than using the airbox holes/handles, I bet.

Not sure what size the bolts are exactly but their website shows that they supply M6 and M8 bolts. Either way they are plenty strong enough for lifting the rear of the bike.
 
Mines an 08 with '12 front plastics, haven't found the need to update sides or rear yet

Martin-EC300 Your radiator shrouds are pointing the wrong direction mate. The white shrouds in front of the radiators should be pointing out from the middle of the frame for max air flow. You could overheat your steed... Nice EC300 by the way.
 
I already posted these on my own thread, but what the hell... I'm pretty stoked about how it turned out!
2014 with a 2017 kit installed. came with everything except the steel clips that join the 2 halves of the rad shrouds. I did not install the open hand guards or the swing arm decals, I think it looks better black.

 
Here is a before & after. I did this last fall when I was done riding for the year. Its a 05 Ec200 with the Motocrosscenter special mod kit.

I need your help with trannsformation kit. I would like to assemble it well so I have some questions about air box.
Below the air box 2005

So I noted that in 2011, no part of the number 3 and 6 (form 2005 manual), this metal pieces.

How exactly is it assembled in 2011?
Should I install these old metal parts from 2005 and drill holes?

I will be grateful help or some photo of air box
 
I installed the air filter according to the 2011 diagram.
I'm not convinced of the tightness of this solution. How is it done in the original? Is air filter rubber sealed with silicone?
I still have the impression that this older solution was stronger and certainly tighter.



Can any of you tell me how it is factory-assembled?

That looks just like the way the filter on my 2011 looks. If the pins in the cage are not lined up with the opening, the spring loaded holder won't fit. It is very solid. I make sure that I have a clean surface and then I try to rotate the filter and feel around it to make sure it is sealed against the air boot.

Thank you very much pscook! You calmed me a little :)
I just wonder how the filter rubber is instaled? it is only inserted into the plastic or is somehow sealed / locked?
I would appreciate if you could while washing the filter take some photos of this plastics. I would be very grateful:)
I would like to make my transformation possible near the original.`

It will be a while before I get to the bike as I'm out of the country for a week starting this weekend, and there are other things in front of giving the bike a wash. But, I will do what I can to take pics when I return.
 
So, I am new to this Gas Gas thing. Bought my son a 2001 EC200, and he loves it. However, he is really wanting to make it red, and currently, it is yellow. So after reading through this whole thread, I think I learned that if I can find plastics up to a 2006, they will fit without any modifications. Can I get an afirmation on that?

Now, if that is the case, finding plastics is a little harder than I thought. I found the polisport site, but no one has the part number in their system from the major sites.

By the way, this is a great site and I am just now getting into this sport with my son.
 
Where are you located? I have a used set of plastics that are in decent condition. I am in Canada so shipping may be pain. I don't want any $ for them, just cover the cost of shipping.

I'm in Tennessee. We can work out shipping. PM me an email and we can work it out. I found a place with new graphics that I found today. So that may help any cosmetic issues
 
Plastics and headlight

Hey guys,
I am new to the forum and picked up a 2007 EC300. I live on the west coast US and am in need of some parts or a place to get them. I have called my local dealers and since GG has be bought out, no one supplies parts!!

I am looking for a 2011 plastic upgrade kit and headlight. I also need an outer clutch cover. Mine is cracked, and the only one I can find online is a Rekluse for $160!!

I checked with the Euro online suppliers and no one will sell me parts because of some dealer contract issues.

Please help!!

Try PEB - He's parting out a couple of bikes and might be able to put together a "kit" for you. As long as you get the subframe and airbox, you should be able to update with just "easy to acquire" (easier than the upgrade kit, anyway) plastics.
