OSSA

Hi I'm wondering if any has modified the rear brake on a Ossa Mar to remove the cable and convert into a direct link pull. If so how is this done and does it improve the rear brake action at all. Many thanks

just found this on the web i am not sure if its been posted before? if it has sorry, but if not take a look, unfortunately i don't speak Spanish so not sure what has been said!!

hi. just bought a 2014 ossa 300i and i wonder what the top speed is? have not got it yet (transport) and there is ice on the road so i can`t try it now. I will drive it on trails and there will be some dirt roads also so it would be nice if it could run close to 70 km/h.. if not, where can i buy sprockets? best regards / new beginner swede

picked up a lightly used 12 280i. first ride 15 minutes in bike dies like i hit the kill button. now shows no sign of wanting to run. even 5th gear bump starts on a big hill. bikes seems to have spark but maybe intermittent? pull fuel line of injector and fuel pumping is pumping. very quickly regretting this purchase. anyone got any ideas on where to start looking?

Hi there guys,just wondered if anybody has succeeded in getting a "duel map" installation installed on there "standard" bikes,I know the "Factory Edition" has this function and so did the last years "SSDT Model". I see Bob at Ossa Canada has mentioned he now has the "Duel Map Switch" available, I assume just running the latest Map-13 does still not let you access this function even once the "Duel Map Switch" is installed. Anybody know the correct Map Number or File Name of the "Duel Map" ? Also I have been trying to find a flywheel puller for the TR 280i,has anyone seen these for sale anywhere?

I know i`ve probably bored everyone by now but when I removed the tank today I noticed it had what looks like two tank stops on the top tube. I`ve never seen these before and thought it might be a clue as to who made the frame. Any info on the frame or bike would be gratefully received.

Hi, I did have a list of all the sizes and serial numbers for the rear suspension bushes, also tensioner bush, now i cannot dig it out! Can anyone help with this please? Regards, Ian

Hi all !! My 350 Gripper (that I got about a year ago but havent done much with) has a loud engine. The noise seems to be coming mainly from inside the clutch cover but its difficult to say exactly. I opend up this side and have found that the primary chain is quite sloppy. I´m not sure if I could change this my self or if it´s to difficult. Maybe a chain tensioner for In motion would be the right choice as it hasn´t got one ? The othe thing that I noticed is that inside the clutch cover casing there are some very light score marks where the weight on the end of the crank has been rubbing on the cover. I investigated this and have fond that the crank has play in it from…

As it say. I’ve wear in a 2011 linkage. Not stripped nothing yet but what are my options? Top tips on ripping it all apart? Can I use bearings instead of bushes? Am I likely to need pins etc? Do these parts even exist now? If worst comes to the worst, I might see if I can get all the parts re made and to use bearings and seals instead.

Has anyone yet determined if the Jitsie Ossa tr280 air filter is an addition to the regular filter, or a replacement? I have one and the dual foam filter looks like it could be meant as a replacement. At the very least it should make cleaning of the main filter less frequent as if it acts as a pre-filter it should catch 99% of the crap before it gets to the main. Sunlingkau, I think you also have one, what do you think of it, and do you run it as a pre-filter?

Is it just me, or have Ossa seriously put the exhaust pipe, Perfectly where your left leg is?

I am looking for a wiring diagram for a 2012 ossa explorer. I am all so looking for a picture of the back side of the key switch showing what color wire is installed on which terminal on the switch. At this time my bike will start in both key positions.

Well tomorrow I'm doing a trial on a borrowed 250 mar to see how I like the bike before buying one. Already had a little play around the yard on it and was impressed on how smooth it was compared to the fantic iv been riding. The power comes in so steady with no snappy jumpy movement which also made it great to turn tightly. Hopefully the weather will turn for the best and the trial won't get cancelled. Will post how I get on and how the bike rode.

Never was a fan of green!

Hi, I have a 2012 TR280i bought used last year. The bike ran very good and started in the 1st or 2nd kick every time until recently. We were riding in our regular spot and after a big rev the motor died. We thought it ran out of gas but after topping it off (it did take a full tank so maybe it did run out) it would not start. It's getting spark and the fuel pump is working as it will spit out gas from the fuel line when kicked. i figure the next thing to check is the injector but it seems to be impossible to get to with our removing the tank and radiator. I say this because the ECU is wedged in between the frame and injector and there seems to be no way to get …

I know it's not quite trials, but has anyone seen the beautiful work of art that is the expansion chamber on the new Ossa enduro-check out the Ossa Spain website-how DO they do that welding..... Will-in-the-mud

hi guys just wondering about your thoughts on how much you reckon its going to cost and who is goingt be the lucky dealership!!

Hello, I am looking to do the upcoming Lands end trial on my 75 Ossa Mar. I will have to put lights on the bike for a full MOT. Can anyone help with some sort of simpe Wiring diagram. It currently runs with Motoplat Ignition which gives me 5 wires Black and Blue which are for the coil, But have not much idea which of the other wires to use for which lights. I have a green,red and white wires coming from the stator. Will i have to use some sort of A/C converter to stop the bulbs from blowing. I really don't want to run a battery. Any help would be great. Cheers, Ian

I heard a rumor at a trials meet last weekend that KTM may be having a look at buying OSSA, can anyone confirm? I'd sure like to see them stay alive.
