gas gas parts questions

[randy]

does anyone know of an aftermarket seat company(complete w/base,foam,cover)? also a rr. brake caliper carrier(aftermarket)? is there a good aftermarket company under one roof that has a lot to chose from. this is my first gas gas (04 ec300) and i think it is a awsome do everthing bike! i ride eastern single track trail( single track and goat trails)! if anyone can help i would greatly appreciate it!

I believe GoFasters mentioned that EnduroEngineering (EE) was planning to offer a GasGas aftermarket seat. However, I don't recall if this was a complete seat or if you had to ship your seat pan for a conversion.

Regarding the brake caliper carrier, the only aftermarket version that I've seen was the Scotts Racing carrier with disc protector. Most other companies (such as Fastway) make a disc protector that bolts onto the OE carrier. The brakes are Nissan, so there may be a crossover part. Most folks ask about disk protectors and not carriers Is there a particular reason for needing a different brake carrier?

EDIT:
I also forgot... Welcome to the club! I just realized this was your first post. You will love the GG bikes!

the reason for the carrier is that it is very sloppy, and rattles like a bucket of bolts. its not uncommon for this to happen to any number of my bikes iv owned over the years, eg: kx,cr,2texc,4texc and now ec! thanx for the scotts lead! i will also contact ee about a seat!

resurrecting an old thread:

just like mentioned above, my 07 ec300 rear caliper rattles terribly on descents, and I can move it manually about 1/4 inch or more side to side. Has Scott's sharkfin guard (replaces stock rear caliper support). Are there replaceable parts to firm up the caliper, or is it time for a new guard? Or get used to the rattle LOL?

Why are you using brakes in the first place?????

Get used to the rattle....a few years back I replaced my caliper carrier with a Scott's unit....rattles....loose tolerances is my guess.....I know it doesn't solve your problem......

For a good selection of oem and other parts try Motocrosscenter.com
I usually wait and buy a bulk of parts because the shipping is expensive but the price and selection is much better. Motocross Center prices are usually 25% to 50% cheaper on oem GG parts.
