Good find but hopefully mine will be good for a while yet. How many k’s have u got now?

Hmmm not sure hasnt got a speedo it was removed at about 2500 kms about 3 years ago. I reckon probably about 6-7000 kays on 2nd piston and 3rd ring change, Not that it really needed them, has been a very reliable bike,except for some minor issues.

Nice work Dude and only two Hours ! My XR650 ones were at least that per side :blush:

BTW is there a mod for relocating that fuel tap ? :ohmy: A decent hit on the front and I reckon it will do some damage to the core ! (just a thought)

I figured that would be the case with the clutch. Was it a pretty complicated task or piss easy even for the not so mechanically minded?

piece of cake mate, no harder than doing a normal clutch swapout. you have to get the Suzuki thrust waser that goes behind the inner basket though. Also for some reason the CR250 steels have a slightly different tooth profile and I had to use the GG ones.

Just found a guy on Ebay in Sydney who does GG clutches for about $140 delivered, So next time would probably go down this path.

I saw your write up on the cr clutch in ggriders ollie and im interested as to why you would change it to that as mine feels great?

I could have paid $185 for a GG clutch (which for Genuine is reasonable) but $55 from RMATV to cheap to pass up. Mine was rooted but it is an 07 model and has plenty of Hours up on it.

Manufacturers make a squillion Jap parts so they are going to be cheaper than what the Euro’s have to charge. The YZ kick starter is a better design in my opinion though.

If anyone is interested I think KTM Rules (Doddy) has his Nambotin for sale for a good price.

Pete, The GG like any bike has its peculiarities but most of them are easy to live with or get around. I brought mine because it was a six speed box lower seat height and a linkage rear end. They make a great trail bike and plenty of Bling available for them if you know where to look , you have to become a member of the elite GG owners club before this can be divulged :laugh:
I reckon spare parts prices are a lot better than KTM and if you have a good dealer you cant go wrong. A lot of parts from other Bikes will also fit ( I currently have a YZ kick starter and a Honda clutch and WR spec Pivot pegs on mine )
I dont buy a bike on resale value it has to be a happy partnership, and in all honesty they are not that bad now anyway,makes for good buying second hand :cheer:
These bikes are becoming increasingly more popular, because everyone who has one raves about it. If the Japs made 2 strokes they would sell a squillion of them

Good one lefty, I reckon the oil pump light or gauge would be a neccessity. Also makes you wonder when someone repairs a job that they dont fully investigate and remove all of the damaged bits! thats just negligence !

Ollie

Bol, mate it rips your heart out to hear of these tragic circumstances. My heartfelt sincerest sympathy goes out to all involved and to those affected by this tragedy. This will have an impact on that small community for many years to come.
