    If you have seen the pipe in the flesh you would know it may a big ask of staintune for a pipe thats over 5 years old and looks like it has been run over by a dozer :laugh:

    Never know till you ask but I guess Ollie :huh:

    Yeh mate I guess your right on that one I would still approach them and see what they say. You would probably be able to fix it easy enough, slice the end off with a thin blade, inspect repair ,then Tig it back up. If Time is not an issue I could do it for you mick.

    Shane, there is probably 5-6 ways of attacking this problem,and many have already been suggested,I will throw my 2 bobs in, give the outside of the nut a go with some rust buster or penetrine,let it soak the longer the better,apply some Gentle heat to the cases with a hot air gun or propane torch,remember Gentle heat,next get a can of quick freeze (bunnings,auto one)spray the nut. Then use a rattle gun with a metrinch socket. That will get the bastard off;) option two,same as above but use a cold chisel, option 3 you can use a plumbers mate which is like a pipe vice grip with an extended handle.option 4 if it will fit in you could try a stud remover. Option 5 leave it alone and just turn your bike upside down and let it drain from the filler:woohoo:

    option 6 wait for TB with his special tools;)

    i got plenty of time to think about it ollie but the extra gear on the gas gas has got me thinking love the 6th gear on my ktm and the TM seat is hard

    Ha HA good on ya rocket :laugh: 6th gear would be real handy especially when you ride from Warchoppy to Taree down the HWY:laugh:

    And you are also right with regard to the Gasser at the end of the day, still have plenty of energy in the tank.

    The Gas Gas is a great trailbike especially with the six speed box,and I agree it is a bit shorter than the TM,but nothing a set of bar raisers wouldnt fix, Im 176cm and it suits me as is I know your a bigun:laugh: I think the TM’s have had their power toned down this year to make them more rideable, there is also a new power valve adjuster out now that can give you up to 16 different settings when combined with the map switch. What ever you decide mate cant go wrong with both brands.

    Rocket Im pretty sure the 07 GAS GAS seat is carved from fossilized iron bark:blink: (padded bike pants and talcum powder is a must) Why the 250 over the 300? When it comes to resale I think the 300 would be easier to sell. Very nice bikes and Cross country are good guys.
