What did you do to your Gas Gas today?

[GasGas]

I installed and tested a rekluse core exp on my '12 250 today.

That would make you one of 2 people. Was the Rekluse new or used?

 

[MargusV]

Installed new plastics. Worked on airbox, re-routed carb vent hoses, patched some paintwork on the frame (red Hammerite works wonders, by the way).

Wish I could change my air filter that easy

Shop time

I began prepping a couple of 2014 EC300s. Step # 1...apply dielectric grease to every electrical connection.

preseason prep

Today if finally got my mits on the GG for the first time this year (it's almost bike season for "me"). I removed the shock for a freshening and cleaned, greased the linkage seals and bearings. I'll try the JD blue needle after the ice takes a hike. Everything looked good so far.

Friday, four friends and I spend five hours on our bikes in the woods, removing race arrows and banners from the course of the March 2nd 2014 Bear Creek Hare Scrambles.

It was a great day to be in the woods on a dirt bike. 68F and clear.
The EC250 ran like a top.

It's now cleaned up and ready for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday this coming weekend.

I did some more work on my "budget" left hand brake setup, getting closer....this would be easier if I had a GMP type of mind

 

[MargusV]

Repaired two threads using helicoils. I hate damaged threads and previous owner has not been too careful with them.

Had a good ride on mine last night! I love daylight savings time

 

[Jim Cook]

I installed my last new Bridgestone 401 on the front and changed the spark plug. While I was at it, I unplugged everything behind the headlight and put di-electric grease on the connectors. It's ready for tomorrow.

I'm planning on TrainRobbers with my grandson on his restored and lowered 2000 XC200.

Good Riding!
Jim

Replaced some steel bolts on the tank and rear subframe with their red anodized aluminium counterparts. Not that I'd notice these 10 grams but some bling does not hurt either .

The brake line clamp on my fork guard was stripped out, so I dropped in a couple of 10-24 brass inserts. $4 and 10 minutes, job well sorted.

I also installed these bad boys today.....they look good but now my rad guards do not fit.

What brand are those radiators?

And why won't your guards fit? Guessing radiators are too wide?

I had the same problem with scorpion rad guards and the chinese radiators. Had to remake the side panels and space out the cross bars.
Have fun.

Did a little studded tire riding. Things are melting fast.
Sorry about the noisy camera. I think its mount was a little loose.

Bought some Spectro synthetic 2 smoke oil for her today, used the last of my oil reserves Sunday riding her for the first time in 16 months. Man was that a sweet reunion, I'm still basking in the afterglow!
