  1. Hello, I have just purchased a GG 250 JT 1995 I think. I bought it for the chassis as crankcase is damaged etc. I am going to fit a 4 stroke aircooled engine in it, TLR or Jialing. I want to know if the JT motor is used in any other G G as I am going to ebay the bits individually and I am not an expert on Gas Gas. Thanks in advance

  3. If you want a contact no try 01242 239055. Cheers
  4. There is a bike called a Cotswold built in small numbers using I think a Mini Majesty frame and a Chinese copy of a Honda engine 200cc and there may have been a 250 at last years Malvern show. A nice looking bike, I have not found anything on the net relating to it though. And of course its a twinshock. Maybe someone on here can post a picture. Thanks.
  5. Thanks. Run of the mill Honda dealers run scared when something out of the ordinary is mentioned. Still treating Imports as if they were made on Mars.
  6. You are not a donkey you have done well, as long as the bike runs well etc. In the UK we would pay that sort of price for one stripped in boxes. Well done P.S. If you go to David Silver spares site there is a link there where you can identify your model and year of manufacture etc. Good luck.
  7. Hi, you have got a TLR200. Engine capacity is stamped on barrel

    What Is This?

    Cant find anything on the link?? Yes its there now. No idea sorry
  9. Given the value/ prices TLR 250 twinshocks have been achieving recently I was wondering what the rare mono RG model would be worth. The white one with blue and red stripe. Completeley different bike and quite rare. I have been offered one that requires a couple of small jobs sorting. Possibly more of a trail bike maybe. Any ideas, or any users trialing one on here. Thanks.
  10. I can not believe Honda would sell a mudguard so cheap. A pair of TLR mudguards were
  11. Have you noticed its the same bloke selling the CCM bike and TLR front mudguard. Good luck to him I say. And yes if you have a set of nice mudguards sell them now and buy some universal ones while the going is good. Cheers ps if you can give me the name of the Honda dealer selling GENUINE Honda RTL mudguards for
  12. Hi, I have just purchased a TL200e Seeley, very tidy except I do not have a sprocket cover. Is it the same as an XL125/185 of same era, or was a different cover used? Also I have a WES silencer fitted.Is there a better silencer I can use as the one fitted was intended for the TLR200. I have got a TLR200 with a WES and the Seeley seems to run hotter.Thanks

    Honda Tlr 200

    Take it to your local scrap yard and ask to use the scales if they dont mind. The small ones and not the weigh bridge obviously. Cheers
  14. Probably carb slightly flooding, if bike was not running and carb was full. You only need to worry about it if it floods when stood still, as you may have some dirt in the carb or need to check float height. If it does not flood when stood still and petrol is turned on and bike is not running then you have nothing to worry about. Cheers

    Conflicting Info

    I bought a pinky a couple of weeks ago, its bored to 270cc. The bloke I had it off told me to run it at 50;1 mix with synthetic 2 stroke oil. He had run it at that mix since he owned it and the motor sounds fine.
  16. Hi, can somebody advise me as to which piston is used to convert TY175 to 200. And is worthwhile. Is it just a rebore and nothing major like machining piston or whatever. Thanks.

    Ty175 Info

    No demand for these old things nowadays. If you are not too far from me I will give you a few quid for it to help gain a bit of space in your garage/ shed.

    Honda Mono Special

    Exhaust system is the only thing that lets it down. Look at the welds close up. It is worth as much as anybody is willing to pay for it I suppose,
  20. Hi, I am trying to find contact details of the Cotswold twinshock motorcycle builder, Jon Bliss I think. Thanks.

    Ty250 Engine Mods

    Hi, I dont know whether you have a twinshock or mono. I have just purchased a pinky that has been bored to 270 and the inlet manifold has been shortened, means you have the barrel machined to do this. J.K Hirst do 270 pistons. I know the bike pulls well and is still soft but as I only bought it on Sunday I cant really tell you any more. Good luck with it.
  22. Hi, I have just purchased a 250 pinky Yam and it requires fork seals. Can any body tell me the oil capacity required and best grade oil to use. Thanks.
