I am a new trials rider in San Diego, CA. I have ridden large adventure bikes extensively and decided to get a trials bike to really learn the fundamentals. I was fortunate enough to come across a 2002 Gasgas TXTpro from a member of a local riding group. As a new owner, I want to make sure I am doing the maintenance and set up for the bike properly. Possibly there is an existing thread I could be pointed towards, but I could not find one. Here is what I am looking to find out: What are the common pitfalls of this year and model that I should look at and remedy if necessary, and what are the remedies? What are the recommended service intervals and fluids specs? I would like to go through everything at first as I don't know how long the bike has been since being serviced. What should I change? What gas and premix should I use? I am 6'5" and weigh 250#. What is my best bet to raise the handlebars? Risers, or a new bar? will the cables reach? If not, how to change them? Also, due to my weight and size, what should I do about suspension adjustment/replacement? Any other questions I should ask or things I should know? Thank you in advance!
