Uk Bike & Spares Advice Required.

Sold our GAS GAS JTX 200 a few years ago and got a YZ250 instead.

But we only use it for fields & woods riding but it is hungry on fuel.

Only sold the GAS GAS because getting parts seemed difficult waiting weeks for basic parts.

So.........I prefer the trials bike for the type of riding I do and also they do a few compitions near by so I could always use it for proper events.

BUT........what to get? The GAS GAS was a good bike it had some use with three of us sharing the ride and mechanically it never let us down.

I have seen a Gas Gas TXT 250 1999 for sale local but I don't want to buy it if they are not strong or can't get parts readily.

Where is a good source of parts for GAS GAS, somewhere in the UK with parts in stock a and less than a week waiting time would be ideal.

Or should I be looking at another brand of bike and what would you recommend and who stocks spares.

Thanks everyone. :beer:

In my limited experience you'll struggle for some parts on a 99 gas gas, although service items will be fine. I didn't have one for long but ended up having fork springs made, I couldn't find them new and the two used ones I got both had a crack.

I have a 99 txt 200, I've had some pretty obscure parts for it and never really had trouble finding them. I've mainly used trials and tribulations, no particular reason, other than they used real pictures of the parts so I could match them up exactly. Try a google search their are lots of places that stock parts for your bike.
