Anyone know the amount for the gearbox?

I have used a paperclip with a hook to clean out all the crap from the caliper where the seal goes in. I bought a brand new master cylinder as the old one was in bad shape. When I bought the bike the seals has to be blown out with an airline and 2 mechanics they were so badly corroded in. I have called loads of Gas gas parts shops and nobody has the parts or a new complete caliper. People mentioned getting an AJP caliper but would this a) fit onto the brake line and onto the swingarm? If so which year would fit? Cheers

Hi all, I have been trying to get a rear brake piston and seal kit for the HEBO caliper off my 2000 Gas Gas TXT 200. I have been waiting 8 weeks for Gas Gas UK to send the parts and they keep telling me they cant control when Gas Gas Spain sends the parts! I have been waiting months to ride and its annoying the hell out of me! I cleaned the pistons and polished them and tried cleaning the seals and caliper so they are perfect but the pistons still stick on the damaged old seals. Any ideas as to a possioble solution rather than wait longer? Would a different caliper fit? HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!! Cheers

the rubber bung was confusing me but obviously it was for the bleed nipple.... fitted the new master cylinder but when filling up the reservoir the oil just wont bl;eed through... may have to bleed from the bottom up with a syringe. gutted as i planned to ride boxing day

This arrived in the post and need to attach it to the back brake. Which tubes go where and what is the plastic bung there for??? Cheers

my friend and i share a bike.... is there a way we can switch number plates after each section ? just doing it for a bit fo fun on the easy route. cheers

bought the bike and has needed a lot of work.... the resevoir had a hole so replaced that....bought a motion pro bleed tool which has a 1 way check valve, used a friends suction tool, had a look at the master cylinder and was all rusted and gunky..... decided to bite the bullet and buy the cylinder would have tried using a syringe but couldnt find a place in time as i want to ride over xmas..... have to say tho.... trials bikes are a pain to work on compared to my honda crf 450 motocrosser!!! still.... we can but try!

gas gas uk say they dont make the kits anymore and have to buy a new master cylinder for 60+vat!!!! is this right?

Ordering a master cyclinder kit for a 2000 Gas Gas txt 200 over the phone and he needs to know the piston diametre to make sure he sends the right part. Trouble is, I am miles from home and have no way to do this and despearately want to get the part so I can ride this Xmas!!!!. Does anyone know the piston diametre?

I bought the2000 model txt 200 bike and my manual hasnt arrived yet. after draining the gearbox, how much oil should it be filled with? what oil do trials bikes run? for motocross im sponsored by rock oil so i can use 10/40 semi synthetic or lite gear oil..... both ok for trials clutches? many thanks for help in advance

Does anyone know the torque settings for the upper and lower pinch bolts on a GAs Gas 200 year 2000 model? Also, do you tighten top or bottom ones first? Cheers

with motocross wheels they have sealed bearings like trials bikes and the picture above but have a rubber dust seal you put on afterwards to stop dirt getting in. he gas gas obviously doesnt have them i can presume then..... strange as they were in the pack with the bearings. cheers anyway.

I recently bought a gas gas 200 year 2000 model and took the rear wheel bearings out as they were seized solid to the wheel spacers. When i put the identical new beasrings back into the hub there was no space for the seals. I cant remember if i took seals off or not when i removed the wheel but dont think i did. There are seals that comne with the bearings but they are far to big. The front wheel doesnt have seals either.... This is my first trials bike so sorry for the newbie questions!! cheers

Replacing the fork seals on my gas gas 200 year 200 (i think) and have taken the foks out of the clamps. Just wondering how to take the caps off the tops and bottom bolts and in which order as i cant get any grip on them..... cheers

it was my first ever time on a trials bike and took some getting used to but was really enjoyable. need to work on my balance and turning in tight circles! my 20 years of mx riding seems to oppose everything trials is about! i loved the trial and will attend all of the future events.

is there a website for the club? I would be interested in joining. cheers

Hi All, Could someone let me know the postcode, the price and the time to turn up? Sorry for all the nebie questions! Cheers

After racing moto-x all my life i have just bought a cheap trials bike - Gas Gas 200 TXT. I think it is a 2000 model. Also what oil-fuel ratio should I use? How much oil should go in the forks as the seals have gone. Also what speask plug should it run? Sorry for all the questions but I havent ridden it yet and wanted to enter an event this weeekend! Could you pleasse tell me where to get a workshop manual downloadasble if poss) ? Cheers!
