my 2013 has started to leak oil from the output shaft... i see on the parts list there is a bush with 2 o rings behind it... im guessing if i remove the front sprocket i can then remove the bush and o rings.... but can the actual seal be removed without pulling the gearbox out? thanks

Anyone had their TR frame powder coated? Will there be an issue with the heating process affecting the bonded parts? Not too keen on the frame colour of my 12 bike and fancy something a bit different. I assume the factory bikes with the white and green frames have been powder coated but just checking that assembly of the actual frame wasn't done afterwards. Any advice?

Great day today took delivery of my OSSA 2013 factory Bike has the latest capacitor easy start system installed and fired up on the 3rd kick out of the shipping crate. I got to spend about 2 1/2 hours on the bike today and so far I am liking it lots. First impression is that it is very different power and overall tighter feel than I am used to with my 2004 Sherco 2.9. It's power is very crisp and snappy yet rock steady and solid way down low. I find it much easier to control lofting the front end around and it's easier to hop over logs or anything else than with the Sherco due to the near instant throttle response. Like the no fuel petcock, no choke just fire …

I see this in my user manual is this something I can plug into the existing harness on my 2013 OSSA Factory? Anyone know if the sending unit is already in the fuel tank or not? There is no way to know how much fuel is left (only gripe with the bike so far) and it might be nice to have an indicator of sorts. Anyone know for sure?

My 2013 factory 300 is coming in on Wednesday the manual is with it. I'd like to have the fuel ready to go when I get the bike. Is there a specific oil that Ossa recommends, or can I use the same Maxima K2 that I use in my Sherco? What ratios are you guys running? Tnx.

just been washing my bike from Sunday and while I was checking it over with the engine running, the fan didn't come on. Is there any way of bypassing the thermostat before I spend money?

Disclaimer; As a newer novice rider I am painfully aware that this bike is way, way more bike than I need or can make proper use of. To be honest, I just don't care, the more I learned about it the more I felt like I had to have one. I will keep riding and I will keep getting better. I am a huge technology junkie and I really appreciate the engineering I see on this bike. You folks here seem to like them plenty, I have a few questions. This bike is supposedly a limited edition as well, does that mean anything at all or are all 'factory' models limited editions? What upgrades does the factory version have that the regular bike does not, is it lighter, how much? 300…

My first post on here and hoping my fellow ossa owners may have some ideas. I have a 2011 280i, I'm having an issue with it starting. It was running fine at a recent trial. I parked bike up, killed engine and went to walk the section. Couple of minutes later came back to the bike and it just wouldn't start I checked plug and have spark, it also runs with a drop of fuel in cylinder until it's burnt off. I'm thinking it's possibly the fuel pump or whatever sends a signal to that. Anyone had this issue or any ideas for cause??

Been a rumble / whirring on my lads 280 for a few weeks now which has been getting worse so it's time to investigate. Has been a few bigger bits of metal than usual in the last couple of oil changes. First step is to obviously pull the box. Before doing it I have noticed there seems to be a bit of play in the clutch basket. I presume that there should be none??? Would this suggest a knackered bearing ? If not probably main bearings. Anyone priced the tools for taking the crank out?

Clinton and his tech Matt did a great job last week in Brantford.My Ossa was running like crap and they did a great job getting things back the way they should be.I was ready to give up on it and buy something else.Sure glad i didn't! it starts 1st kick now and with the setup done on it,it is much more rideable.Even the clutch drag is better now because the idle is set properly.

Time for new steering stem bearings.The pullers in my toolbox won't get at the tiny outer races tucked into the head of my 2011 tr280.The engineers didn't even leave enough room to get a punch in there to whack it out.Anyone?

The explorer is based on the trials bike and I made the conversion.... 4 screws for the sub frame, one in front of the tank and a hidden one under the seat, two cables, open the fuel line with snap closing and you can take away the Explorer kit. Trials plastics can be mounted on the normal fixing points, for better slow motion trials I prefeer changing the front sprocket from 11 to 10 teeth. A real dual purpose bike
