I have an 06 TXT250 which I have just bought; and a few questions:

1. The previous owner was using a mix of Castrol TTS at 1:72 or 1.4%. Is this too weak? The manual says 2%.

2. The bike has started overheating due, it seems, to the radiator fan not running. The fan motor is fine so I assume it’s the switch. Is this a common problem with GG’s? Is it easy to replace?

3. If I replace the head gasket, does anyone know the torque setting for the head bolts?

4. Do GG publish a manual for this bike, other than the owners' manual that came with the bike?

Thanks in advance.

Couple of links you might want to have a look at..gas gas

and this one gas gas

I've just rebuilt my 2005 pro 250 with new mains and gear box bearings and found both the links very help full.

Sorry can't give you more help with torque setting, but i just do it by feel with good spanners.

I run 55ml of TTS to 5 lilters of shell V-power.
