HI. I am thinking of buying a 2001 Montesa Cota 315R But before i buy the bie i wonder how it is to get parts for the bike? If it is difficult to get parts for the bike i do not think i wil buy the bike Also is there anything special i need to be aware of when it comes to the Montesa Cota 315R? Also is there only one fork afjuster placed on the right side fork on the Montesa Cota 315R? On my Gas Gas TXT 320 there is adjusters on both of the forks

If the handlebar turns out to bent it really does not matter as long as it is not bothering me while i am riding the bike But how can you see that the forks aren't level in the triple trees?

carybond700 thanks for posting the links where they have fan motors that fit my bike

The handlebar is not bent but you are right about that the handlebar looks bent on the picture The handlebar is a bit turned to the left side so that is why it looks bent i think

I asked a comany that makes new decals for my bike I just sent them some measurements and a couple of pictures of the worn original decals on my bike and they made the decals on the picture below This company are not pricey at all and i am pleased with how the decals turned out They make decals for any bike and any size If any here need decals let me know and i will give you the email address to this company The first picture is of what the emblems look like when you get them and the last 2 pictures is how the new decals look on the bike

I found a place in germany that have the cylinder and piston rings with the correct part numbers for my bike and those parts is type L I was able to get hold of a big "Jumbo" tank for my bike so now i can fill 1 more litre of fuel I had a company that makes decals making some original looking Gas Gas TX 320 decals for me So i only need to put on new TX 320 stickers on the big fuel tank(i will put new decals on the original small fuel tank as well) So if any here need decals they can make them for you. Just let me know and i will PM you the email address to this company

Meaning that there was a new cylinder for Gas Gas bikes made from 1996? Even my bike is from 1998 but it still have the new cylinder that came in 1996? When i have been looking at piston rings and pistons online i have seen piston rings and pistons described as type L and i must admit that it does not tell me much Anybody knows where they sell fan motors for a "nice" price like the one on the picture below The motor must have the threaded axle for the fan blade which is fastened with a nut and also the "ears" that is used to attach the fan. Also attached with 3 small screws

Any here that knows why the cylinder on my bike is casted R37 and have the number 56 stamped to it? Is these numbers someting i need when ordering a new piston and piston rings? See the picture below I also wonder if i have placed the lower radiator bracket in the right location closest to the cylinder See the picture furthest down

I suppose that i can thread the axle so i can attach the fan blade and also make a bracket that will fit around the new electric motor The only thing is that i have to use plyers to hold the axle while i thread it But that is some work so perhaps i rather buy a original radiator fan motor

The fan blade is held with a nut that is screwed on the shaft on my bike so what about the the fastener that sits on the old motor? I will need that for putting the fan back on so it is placed in center as original and also threads on the shaft to attach the fan itself? See the picture of the original fan for the bracket that is spot welded to the motor and the motor is scrwed on the radiator using 3 screws Also see the white arrow of the threaded axle on the original fan motor

After reading about the fan motors here i ordered the electric motot pictured below for my 1998 TX 320 When using the new electric motor do you thread the shaft where the fan blade goes? This electric motor is smaller in diameter than the original one so i must do something so the bracket that holds the motor/fan will fit Any good advice on how to do this? The original electric fan motor to the right and the new electric fan motor to the left The picture furthest down is of the new electric fan motor MFA motor RE540-1 4.5-15V (like G1788 trials bike cooling fan motor)

Thanks crazybond007 i will check to see if the tank top rubber fit there

The previous owner told me that i should change/check the piston and piston springs I talked to the company that sells Gas Gas trial motorbike here where i live and they told me that i did not need to cange piston or piston rings on a Gas Gas What do you think about this?

I have heard that ATF and ATF type F oil is the best oils to use on the gearbox for Gas Gas bikes. I also heard that on older bikes 5W-30 engine oil is used What kind of oil is best to use on my 1998 Gas Gas TX 320 both for the gear box and also for the fuel mix?

Thanks a lot for helping me out here with this I will torque the bolts according to the specs provided by aussiechris I did bounce the fork up and down but I will check the pinch bolts as lineaway suggested

Since the front wheel was a little "off" to one side i adjusted the forks by loosen the clamp triple top yoke and the clamp lower triple lower yoke and adjusted the front wheel. After doing this the front wheel is straight as it should be Should i torque the bolts and if so how much torque?

I posted it twice because first i posted it in the "Genera trials forum" and the nest time i was logged on to this website i could not find my post The moderator had moved my post to the correct Gas Gas forum which i had not noticed since i am new here But i know where to post now

Thanks to all that have replied I have the parts

Yes i do The Part number for tank top rubber is: BT27836024. This is for a 1998-99 Gasd Gas TXT 320 Thanks for helping me out whit this

Are you goiing tu use a new factory fan motor or will you buy a universal fan motor? I must buy a new fan motor for my bike so that is why i ask

Where on the bike is the tank top rubber(part 47 on the drawing)placed? Between the rear fender and frame?

Thanks for the help The only thing is that in the parts manual for my bike there are 3 different types of gaskets listed but the store where i buy the parts only have 1 type of the gasket and not all 3 of them The gaskes are shown as part 20-21 and 22 in the picture below

Just want to say that i have found the parts i need for my bike Thanks for the help

Any here on the forum know where i can get piston rings for my 1998 Gas Gas TX 320?

I have a question about the cylinder gaskets for a 1998 Gas Gas TX 320 Contact Looking in the parts manual there are listed 3 gaskets for the cylinder.
