Hi Matt,
Re-fill with a 10 weight mineral oil, not synthetic, or an ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid) rated to Dexron III, 700 ml.

Hi Matt,
You can post the frame number on here, it should start with "VTR GG*************" or similar. This will give the year and motor size of the bike.
Excuse me for writing this but I am a teacher and can't help it (sorry)
Start every new sentence with a capital letter (Use the shift key), write about yourself as "I" - capital letter. Names start with a capital letter.
I think that's enough for a start, just trying to help.
Bye, PeterB.

hi there .. well i rang gasgas to day .. it a 1994 gasgas 160 (i didnt evan know they made a 160) im still chuffed with the bike.. now i fell off and snaped the sub frame (it looks like it been welded many times before ) so i found 1 on ebay if off a gasgas 125 .. it looks same so i guess it is???

cheers matt

Hi Matt,
The sub frame will fit your 160 if it is from a 1994 bike, a 95 sub frame looks the same but has a different fitting to the main frame.
