    OSSA OIL

    What oils are people using in the gearbox of ossa TR280i, ive been using putoline but i have noticed some bikes with red oil in the sight glass which is a lot easier to see than the light brown putoline jsp
  2. just looked on aa route planner it would be 52 miles each way and 1 hour 20 mins is it that good ? jsp
  3. just seen the regs for the wetherby trial this sunday and wondered if it is worth riding ? jsp
  4. I have had dealings with birkets under the ossa banner and they where fantastic nothing was too much of a problem. jsp
  5. i was told it was something to do with the gases in the areosol that fill the air box if you spray it and then fit it straight in and it leaves no room for air, and i must admit i did have this problem once on my 05 4rt. i always have a clean oiled filter sat waiting to go in no matter what bike ive owned weather is 4 stroke or 2 stroke. jsp
  6. no bothered really as long as we are in there it just helps keep the mud off the bikes. just give me a shout if you need any help marking out. jsp
  7. keep an eye on the horsforth website as they may put in a link to his website. i wont be looking only time i saw the flash go off i was dabbing all over the place. good event though, same venue this weekend but spen valley hosting a club champ trial. hopefully we will be able to use the stream this week. jsp

    TR 280

    its the the torx screw on the gear lever side on the throttle body with blue paint on it but you cant just back it off as you need it on the kousan machine to reset the throttle position sensor, my has run like a dream all day in a trial. you will be supprised how few hours you have done, the only run in at 40 hours jsp

    TR 280

    i use 50ml of fully synthetic oil in 5lits of fuel. had it up to the dealer today, yes its on p11 evo but was just running too rich, leaned it off and reset the throttle sensor. only time will tell now. it was interesting to see how hours it had done i would have said about 40 but the big brother efi system only showed 21 hours. jsp
  10. is it me or does the back brake lever stick out a lot ? jsp

    TR 280

    TR 280

    i ve had a few problems with mine, found it was a swine to start and then it would just not bother, dealer and importer where fantastic, ended up being a dodgy spark plug, well touch wood it was ive had 6 hours with no problem. and then the rear brake hose ended up to close to the shocker and nipped a hole in it, same again importer and dealer fantastic new hose here next day. cant fault the bike or the back up jsp
  13. try lampkins http://www.beta-spares.com/ jsp
  14. dont think they will be much use unless your going to use them to remove the worst of the mud and rewash, i bought a petrol pressure washer which has a filter so it will draw water in without being attached to a hose pipe. i ve never used it but i pressume it works ok jsp
  15. ive used the one at the bottom of the throttle cable, i wont of knackered it will i ? jsp
  16. is there any way to adjust the tickover manually as i like mine to tickover a bit faster jsp
  17. just bought a Facom torx for the rear spindle off a well know auction website, i dont think i will try till that comes to loosen the rear wheel jsp
  18. sunlingkau, its the rear wheel spindle/bolt system we are talking about as you undo it it spins the snail cams backwards. has anyone got an gas gas spindle fitted to a TR280i i know it wont look as good but i think it maybe more practical jsp
  19. i had the problem of the snail cams moving when you try to loosen the wheel, the shop where i got it from has told me to put some forward pressure on the wheel which locks the cams, but i havent had time to try it again. i also asked him if the replacement gas gas spindle kit would fit but he didnt know. let me know how you get on. how are you finding the bike in general ? jsp

    TECHNOSYL

    i would have never found that, looks just the job so ive ordered so to test thanks for the help jsp
  21. any one got a supplier of a good quality clear or carbon look technosyl as the stuff im using only last 2 - 3 weeks before it starts coming off. i get it hot to fit it and clean the area before with white spirit. jsp
  22. had my second ride yesterday and its got better already, it seems to be other people that arnt used to it that struggle to start it. what a bike im more impressed after each ride has anyone got any tips or things to check after pressure washing jsp
  23. i also think it will get alot better as the motor loosens up mines only been been riden once. the dealer told me once it had run in it will be 2 kicks to prime it and one to start, in his words when you kick it to start it kick it like a 300 gasser and so far so good jsp
  24. no they wont either due to it not being road reg'ed. jsp
