What did you do to your Gas Gas today?

[Gez]

Today I de-pinned my low beam of my headlight and lubed the throttle cable. Weather is horrific down here (south gippsland)

Drained the fuel tank, not sure when we'll be riding again here in Vic

Next outing will be using castor oil though, for the time being I'll run some through my lawn equipment

Just fitted this AS3 front sprocket guard to replace the stock one that stores the mud.
I'm finding the AS3 parts to be very well made and have had no issues as yet.

ever since I got the 18 EC 300 I felt it had a little "dead" spot right off throttle. figured it was jetting or PV but after getting those where I liked it was still there. changed to 13/51 and bingo! liking the power much more now .

Since we have been in lockdown here in Victoria Australia and after I gave the whole bike a good teardown re-grease, I've been busy doing things to the bike that I've been putting off for some time.

I've taken 100mm off the silencer, done a key delete and installed one of those push button switches you see on the pumpkins, and made a new improved linkage guard for the bash guard.

Now only if the restrictions could be eased so I can ride it!

I found a two-stroke CDI for $13. I am going to give that a run.

Thanks again for pointing that out. You can see the advance curve on the face plate.

Boy, idle hands with the social distancing - gotta' have something to do!

Reading your posts reminds me how much I've been impressed over the years with the level of expertise that many GasGas enthusiasts operate at. Many of my best tech ideas and innovations came from customers. The first such submission was in late 1999, from a customer who was an electrical engineer who sent me the schematic drawing (hand drawing) of a homemade rectifier he had made from a few dollars (less than $5) of Radio Shack parts. He had a new 2000 XC250 and wanted to add a cheap aftermarket horn. He
needed to change the voltage from AC to DC for the horn, without buying the $42 GasGas horn rectifier.

It was the first of many useful bits that customers who were smarter than me shared over the years. The tech articles on web site's home page still feature some of them.

Kudos.

I sold my smartcarb and bought a STIC metering Block which arrived today.
Let’s see how it works... :-)

Installed a Strike seats gripper seat cover. Good quality and far grippier than the stocker. I'm quietly confident we will be able to ride down here next weekend.
