When I was a teenager, I spent 15 days hiking through Philmont Boy Scout Ranch near Clayton, NM. It was my first time in the Rockies. It amazed me that there would be desert everywhere I could see, and the country would turn to such lush forests as I climbed to the higher elevations. The mountains of New Mexico are really beautiful. Good Riding! Jim

Nothing as exciting as some of the earlier posts, just bled the brakes, replaced tubliss tubes and worn liners (from over zealous tire levers) and replaced wheel bearings - used the skf wheel seal kits - really cool hopefully they will last much longer than normal seals as they turn within themselves as opposed to turning on and wearing a groove on the spacer

I put some .46 fork springs in my 48 Zokes. They were only 25ml low on fluid so I'm happy especially after 30 hours on the bike.

Time to upgrade. Almost bought a sherco. Almost bought a beta. Almost bought a husky.
Instead, I bought a piston, rings, reed valves, graphics, seat cover, head work. Like my Dad said; that gasgas is beating all those bikes every week, why would buy one of them? At 88 he's still smarter than me.

Got my bike back from the dealers. Repair was covered by warranty - new bendix, flywheel, ringear, woodruff key and gasket. Everything bar the flywheel was in stock and that was sent from Spain and arrived in Australia in 4 business days.
Who says parts availability is a problem owning a gas gas?

Progress
All I'll get done until Tues due to a son's wedding & dealer meetings but here is something to look at. Pics are small to save space, not the best (I-Phone) but you'll get the idea. Still a couple of red items to go on.......Soon my Senorita!

Hey n_green
The importer, Jeff, is great to deal with and is carrying alot of parts in stock now. I've found it easier to deal with him than the dealers - they say a 3 wk wait on parts he has in stock, 2 days to ship to WA. He is also importing Cristini's. |

that looks awesome - what have you got planned for the plastics and for polishing up the motor so it does not look 3 years old?

Cheers mate. I didn't go through Jeff, went through the dealer that sold me my bike, which conveniently is only 25 mins away. He is a top bloke as well and couldn't do enough for me. I'm just lucky my local dealer is one of the ones who loves gassers and is pretty passionate about them.
