  1. You are welcome! My buddy has a 23 and I just noticed it has the fender bolt in the front, so you may be able to do the same thing i did just with the seat backwards. I added some Velcro under the front today and it's really solid now.
  2. I know the 23 is different than my 21 as far as fender and mounting options, but I bought a $20 tall CRF50 pit bike seat from Amazon and made it work on my 21 TXT 250. Took about 30 minutes to modify the base a bit with a heat gun and drill some holes. I'de like to make a key slot and post for the front, but for now it's bolted in the rear using the factory fender hole/screw (you would probably have to drill a hole in your fender) and the front is held down with a red zip tie and it's pretty solid. I did pack out the bottom with rubber so it doesn't flex when I sit on it. It's not as factory looking as the GG contact seat but for $20 I'm happy to have something to sit on that doesn't look horrible. And forget the Jitsie "seat" it's more comfortable to sit on the airbox! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09YRF7CY6?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1
  3. Thanks, but need to find US based retailer. from my research it seems 8.0 spring for the rear (7.0 is stock) and Jitsie offers two options for the fork 6.8-9.5 and 7.3-10.0 Also I'm coming from an enduro background and relatively new to trials, but it seems most of the more experienced guys I'm riding with are around my same weight and still running stock springs? Is it not as much of an issue as it would be on an enduro bike?
  4. Hi Guys, Just picked up a 2021 TXT 250 (not GP) with tech ally forks and ohlins rear shock. I'm ~ 220lbs (100kg) in gear. I'm thinking I need to change the front and rear springs to suite my weight. What rates do I need?
  5. It is visibly offset (not at an angle) to the right side.
  6. Buddy just picked up a 2013 Evo 300 and we went riding for the first time yesterday. the front wheel is visibly offset to the left when looking at the front of the bike. However. the fender is in the middle between the fork legs but the wheel is well offset to the left. Is this normal? We did check to make sure the axle was tight and it was so I don't know how we could get the wheel centered as the rotor also seemed lined up in the caliper?
  7. Can anyone tell me the correct part number for the braktec mineral oil clutch master cylinder rebuild kit for a 2014 TXT 280 Pro. I was told that certain years took a special kit?
  8. Starts just fine for me, One of my friends with a TXT300 told me the secret to starting them is to put it in gear, roll it back till it stops, hold the clutch in and kick and it will start first shot. So far he was right although I've only started it maybe 10 times.
  9. a 2014 TXT 280 pro racing popped up locally yesterday and I grabbed it. It's well ridden but in decent shape and the price was right so I could sell it without losing anything when it's time to upgrade.
  10. hmmm that's saying a lot to be happier with bike that is a decade older! Whats better of the Factory edition vs the standard other than the bling?
  11. yeah, I run a Dunlop D803 on my Beta300rr and I thought they were getting expensive at $140USD, The Michelin X-light is 2x the cost here! I can't image ever needing that tire in my lifetime!
  12. Hi Guys, I had posted this in the Sherco forum earlier this week, but the bike I was looking at fell thru which was a 2017 ST300. New to trials (coming from many years of Enduro) so don't want to spend a heap on a first bike. I'm now looking at a 2019 Beta 250 Factory bike and wanted to hear the good and bad of this bike compared to say a recent model GG250 or 300 which seem to be more available on the used market in my area. Thanks
  13. Thanks for the all the replies guys! The Sherco didn't work out so I'm back on the hunt!
