These are good, solid, reliable bikes.  If you loop the bike make sure the rear mudguard is still sealed against the airbox otherwise crud can get where it shouldn't.  GasGasUK used to offer a rubber apron to help overcome this problem.   Enjoy!

thanks I will keep an eye on the mudgaurd as I'm sure to fall off.  Can anyone also please confirm the oil type to use in the gearbox ?  The manual just says 10/40w but does not say what, I assume justt he usual car engine oil.  I ahve also seen some are using ATF.  Only just got the bike yesterday so was wanting to go over it and change all the fluids.

There are several threads on Gas Gas gearbox oil,you can spend hours reading them. On the TXT Pro some recommend ATF but there are some makes of clutch plate(DP is one of them) which the friction material will swell on the Diaphragm type clutch it leads to a hard pull clutch. On your bike which is a conventional clutch i would use 75W light gear oil such as Putoline or 5/30W engine oil(not car type but motorcycle specific) Many people also steer clear of fully synthetic oils too. The more i read the more confused i get!
