just call up your local importer depending on which country your in. i think they would offer you a very good deal on a new frame if not free... worth a try. if not just weld. happy xmas all

go for it - far better than a 5 year old gasser. 14-15 year bikes where a big step up in quality. buy it - you wont be disapointed

all the prices and shops are pretty much the same other than the exchange rate. beta uk is good or any decent trials shop in europe ! - there all good

just go ride them , so long as your responsible and not using them in crowded places - ( town centres etc) i really think you would be fine. go get out their and enjoy riding with your sons.

gasser easier for new guy i reckon

try checking the woodruff key first - remove the flywheel cover ( plastic cover just infront of your left foot when your on the bike) and i think you have to remove the flywheel and you will see where the 'key' should sit and if its sheared or not. i have had this a few times causing same symptons as you where it cut out and then wouldnt go and can only get a backfire. im pretty sure its a fairly simple job - just when it happened to me someone else has done the work on the bike for me as i didnt have a fly wheel puller. http://www.splatshop.co.uk/sherco-flywheel-woodruff-key.html

hi, i did this on my 15 125 back in june, either type of packing works, i prefer stringy stuff coz its easier to fit and sounds better ( in my opnion ) . from memory there are two maybe 3 screw holding the end can on. one of these you need to remove the plastic black thing that goes on the back of the tank and exhaust. there is a bolt for this at the top of it under the rear mudgaurd/ just to the left of the silencer. then there should be another bolt you can see. i couldnt get to this with my tools so for some reason i cant remember i had to take the whole silencer of to do it. sorry for being vague, hope that helps though.

get it back to dealer and ask for a michelin to be fitted.

did its job then, but whats wrong with it other than paint scatched etc? i am missing something haha??

give splatshop a call - numbers on their website, they could help. if not maybe try get hold of an oset wheel or a push bike wheel and try find someone who can modify it for you. or try richard allen used trials spares - again number on his site.

15 has been the best year yet for the sherco 125, had no problems on it other than the jet clogging in the carb which was down to dirty fuel. the gear box is very positive and never had any jumps or issues, on the 14 and 15 the quality is alot better than previous bikes. ill be getting a 16 soon so pm if your interested in mine, its mint, im down south.

yeah you can get them redone - about 150£ ... some people put filler and varnishy stuff on it then rub it down so its level and smooth, not perfect aesthetically but works nicely if done correctly

so now this thread is about judging ones bike? stickers look good mate cheers for that.

i saw a girl at a south east centre round this month riding one , was a fairly big loop and think the bike got round the whole trial ok. looked good and significantly bigger than the 20 - and alot bigger rear tyre. its not 24 inch wheels!! think its frame size

or uk give gasgas uk a call they will be able to get you some

gasgas uk still supplying all parts !!

i had this issue so bady until i figured out what to do haha. even missed a trial because of it! you want to put a little bit of grease around the carb where the hose slides onto. and also a little bit in the hose. smear it round( dont use lots, just enough to help it slide on) . try putting it on now, if it does not go on easily now try this - try getting the side closest to the shock on first. this makes it easier to get it all on becuase the shock side is the hardest. to do this loosen the clip at the read block side so the carb can move around slightly more. then rest the airbox in its position, lightly, dont get bolting it all in yet, you want to be able to move the airbox around abit. now you want to pull the back end of the carb towards you a little. hold it there and move the airbox into place and then push the carb back so the shock side of the hose will go onto the carb first and then it all should clip in nicely . i had lots of trouble with this and once i got the knack it was easy. hope you can make sense of that

this is probably your best bet http://www.trialendurodirect.com/products.php?S3_HARDROCK_Pants_1160&manufacturers=15

varies on a number of factors. my fairly new gasgas fan only came on once during a hot evening trial! where as in a cold trial it was on alot of the time. this is because of the different style of riding for each condition. some times it will come on after a couple of mins sometimes it will take longer just depends. any way a few months later i had an issue , i noticed the fan hadn't run in a long time and the top of the radiator was spitting out alot of steam and water once at operating temp. also had lost lights and electrics except the spark plug obviously because the bike was running. turned out to be a faulty voltage regulator. i disconnected it and used the bike with out it for a while just being careful not to over rev it with the fan on because will burn it out etc. once new part arrived all good and worked like normal again. as faussy said above check the thermostat too but also check the voltage regulator. ( not the big black box the other smaller one with a white connection and not many wires coming out of it . check both andlet us know how u get on

yes you have to use the correct size barrel piston etc. i think gasgas uk do a cylinder exchange service. where you gave them your old parts and pay abit and you get the correct size or whatever one you wanted. give gguk a call and you will get an answer. or alternatively give R and T a call (south yorkshire) , they have it on their website as doing it

sherco way to go at the moment!

if fairly clean and good runner - no rust or fadedplastics and worn shot parts probably 12-1500 i guess. 200 is a popular bike

try polishing it? we had some sherco rims which someone has done and we started to polish and it wore down to what was underneath

looks very good and sounds just like a gasser looking forward to a ride on one! wish you all the best in your new venture jordi and TRS
