Be certain you have proper free play at the lever

Just throwing this out there is the fan pushing or pulling air.

I live in Hot Springs and fart around on my 280 a bit. Where are you located? Keenan is in Uniontown (just north of Fort Smith) good guy with some of the best land for any kind of dirt bike.

No one gets parts from Jim unless YOU call Jim he has GG stock and can sell them. If YOU call a GG dealer ANY DEALER (trials or enduro) the parts come from GasGas North America. That is how it is now they have a parts warehouse in South Dakota they ship from to the the dealers in the US and Canada.

I've never been on a gas gas that the clutch did not "drag"

Id buy the GG nothing wrong with a older bike. Bullet prof motor I have a 01 TXT 280 and my buddy has a 95 JT 25 (250) if you are new to the sport that bike WILL do more than you can. I would buy it if it were closer to me.

I would just like to thank you Jim for the work you have done for GG and CONTINUE to do for us GG riders(NOT GG). Most people would have just taken the videos down and not looked back. You are a man above men

Send him a PM hes on here

This is correct for the PRO if it is a EDITION (GG had both that year) it will be just behind the kick start hump in the center case hidden by the carb This is a 01 280 EDITION

Mike at The Tryals Shop can hook you up

Mike at The Tryals Shop can get you what you need. He helped me get my 01 and my buddy's 95 back from the dead. Snell has LOTS of parts also Both stand up guys. http://www.tryalsshop.com/index.html

Shocks have been changed from time to time my bud has a 96? contact 250 and I have a 01 txt 280 both have different shocks. My shock is a sealed unit I assume yours is the same. I think Splat has someone that mods them to make them rebuildabl

80:1 on fuel 5w30 motor oil NON SYNTHETIC 650cc I would email Jim Snell he can give you any info you would need and parts if you are in the US http://www.trialspartsusa.com/index.html

Soak the clutch pack in oil for 24 hours BEFORE you measure it, it WILL swell.

If you are in the US call Mike at the Tryals shop http://www.tryalsshop.com/index.html

That is the "old" type this is the "new" Jim was showing http://www.tryalsshop.com/index.html#!/Rim-Strip-Rear-With-Integrated-Valve-Stem-For-Tubeless-Rims/p/359060/category=162632 get it and put it on like Jim showed nigel is right the original video shows him tucking it in the grove.

Probably because Jim Snell did extensive testing and determined ATF to work better in the PRO motor. I have never seen a trials service Manuel but if it is ANYTHING like the Enduro Manuel Id throw it in the trash.

You will want to take out those bolts holding the rear finder on and replace with zip tyes those finders are costly on any trials bike and getting hard to find for older ones

You need to get a skid plate on there too it is the bottom part of the frame

Yes bad move on GasGas's part way to much info in that brain. But it mite be a deal he has with TRS ? So we wait yet again for info

There is NO GasGas info none he does not even have GasGas on the home page. The new owners must have cut him out I hope not there is just to much info there.

Over greasing is that even possible?
