Check the water pump...it's usually the problem when they get hot...little spline snaps of...

I would look at the water pump...they tend to snap...you won't know it's broke till the engine gets red hot like you said or the radiator pipe goes bang with the pressure.

Grease inside of the rim then re fit rim tape works for us

Rebuilt an o7 250...put a new dph clutch why we were at it.... we then added atf oil and it made terrible noise...after racking our brains thinking we put something back wrong we noticed on the clutch box a big white sticker stating "do not use ATF oil !!!" put normal bike gear oil in and it's all fine no noise

No it's one of them French ones...

My mate foloows me round with a wheelbarrow picking all the bits up it's not a problem really

Bike is all fine now...never use ATF oil in the gearbox no wonder so many gassers make a noise!!

No there was We had used wrong oil (AF) as it was a dph clutch...all running fine now

Hi Bought an 07 txt250 Engine had an annoying "rattle" turned out to be 2 bearings knackered in gearbox Put everyithing back together new bearings in gearbox new piston new clutch etc. Started bike up...there is an annoying rattle coming from the clutch area...when you engage gear the noise goes...when you pull the clutch in the noise is still there it only goes when you engage gear!! We've checked the clutch basket etc and everything seems to be fine.....any ideas before we strip it down again? arghhh!! Thanks Steve

Don't make me laugh i've had one of them it's like someones tied a couple a bags of cement round handlebars

Which is what I did...I didn't just go and buy an Ohlins I tried two shock repairers and both said the same thing...you can bodge them but the chances of the gas staying in is very slim and for

Hi..your have trouble finding one I looked everywhere...there not servicable!! gas leaks out and thats it...I bought a new Ohlins from Thor motorcycles in Cornwall the guy there Colin was very helpful and knows all the faults etc even sets the spring up for your weight...not cheap to replace but worth it...and it's servicable

Thanks video was a great help...all sorted now

Hi...just bought a 2005 Txt280...the clutch seems very stiff...it works fine...wondered if anyone had any ideas as to why...thanks Steve
