What did you do to your Gas Gas today?

[Motorockr]

Hello all! I'm a first time Gas Gas owner but not a first time GG rider. I purchased a used '12 300 XC from Bandit9 and I am totally digging it. Ok here's what I've done it so far. I have jetted the carb by switching to a N3CJ needle and a 178 main jet. Much better I must say. Tons of usable power. Also I reinstalled the wire harness to run my headlight to start my practice for the upcoming Perry Mountain 24 Hour Challenge. Bandit9 removed the harness previously. That's about it, I would really like to some how install a quick realese seat on this bike. Something like a KTM comes with would be excellent. GoFasters has a kit for some Gassers but I haven't seen a kit for the 12's yet. Are am I wrong? I'm tired of creepin' on this forum and ready to to learn and participate!! Thanks guys and gals!

No spark at all so stripped it back to get to the suspect wires. It was a loose connection, put it back together and it started first kick!

It was spot on and really crisp.

So thats the end of that project and yes it has been emotional

Now my first race, I'm booked in to do this one.

Good to hear. That's what I suspected and why I kept asking about spark .

Just upgrade the sub-frame or use the search function to find the seat mod
I think it was Stu Johnson's post. good luck and welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the new steed

Choke lever assembly came in for my new Magura 167 master....very happy with the Magura, much better feel over the APJ.

Bought everything from SLM KTM Racing in Texas, Cody was extremely helpful tracking everything down and making sure it fit, before shipping it out to me. As this was the first lever assembly they have sold. Nothing to it really, new bracket and longer lever bolt. Does not use a different reservoir cover.
