What did you do to your Gas Gas today?

Thoroughly cleaned front and rear master cylinders and calipers and installed new seals and pistons. Lost a brake pads clip in all the excitement of having the outsides vapor blasted by a riding buddy. They look amazing now! Also installed a Fasst co. return spring kit on the rear master cylinder, that's prompted me to fix and or replace a few other small issues, starting to get excited about riding again, it's been awhile.
 
Got it dirty!

2 awesome days riding at Louee - New South Wales Australia

The Fatbar 609s worked great for me, felt much more comfortable on the bike

Axp braces with thermo fan

Fit up a thermo fan off a Kick Till Monday to my axp braces. Needed a little work around but fits in there!
I ordered some AS3 silicone hoses in the thermo delete option to go with but they dicked me around twice with unavailabilities. So replaced the thermo side hose with a straight bit of heater hose until I can get some in.

I also added a manual switch and ordered a lower temperature switching thermoswitch as 100 degrees is a little high for a 2t, and I'd like to be able to preemptively switch the fan on before the cooking starts in the technical stuff. I do think that the higher flow without the thermostat would almost be enough anyway.

The gasser has never boiled but I can feel it getting hot and there is a tiny bit of pipe knock/pinging when it is.

now you've fitted the fan it will get hot due to lack of airflow so don't be surprised when the fan pops on more frequently than you thought.
With the 2018 configuration with the radiators blocked by the tank (like ktms) I would have thought they would boil easier than the pre-18 models

Just use a left side OEM hose on the right side.
 
Just go to your local auto store and shop through the heater hose. Found a perfect bend cheap as. I?m replacing the rubber hoses asap though as they tend to be affected by degreasers and swell up.
 
I replaced the Rekluse brake tip I installed some months back. It has served me well, but was completely destroyed in the race a week ago.

I discovered a split in the tank. It was not leaking a lot, but enough to notice.

As my importer didn't have a new tank in stock, I tried to glue it as a temporary fix while I'm waiting for the new tank to arrive from Spain.

Tomorrow I will fill it up and go riding, hoping for the best.
 
I finally fit up a new battery after the tiny original started to get a little tired on the cold starts. Replaced it with a SSB LH5L-BS. First one I bought was a dud and open circuited under load. 🤬
The second is a ripper and tested out at 290cca. Starts instantly dead cold. Straightened out my bent shift shaft and made a new shift shaft scorpion collar out of alloy rather than plastic which gets dented and causes shifting issues.

Fit up a force accessories rear disc guard. Typical force item didn?t fit and needed modifications to suit the 2018 on swing arms despite being listed for it. Never again will I buy force products.

Force suck. How much was the battery?
 
Converted my 18 XC300 to a Rieju
