Hi , Just got e.mail from Banyeres but they can't supply price or stock situation but Andy at John Shirts told me today that they have had some pipes made so I have asked them to save me one , Cheers Nick
got a Randonne 125 as demo bike. I have played with it and done some pretty basic things to get it to rev and pull well. Gearing 9 front sprocket, 8 rear, valve clearances adjusted, removed egr system, air filter box mods,re-routed fuel pipe location and added filter, needle adjustments, earth out neutral switch ,restrictor in rear box removed. It pulls me (16 stone) up some big hills. See pics on my website. PAUL
Hi Raga , I have changed sprockets [ 10 @ 48 ] removed E.G.R. fitted fuel filter , earthed neutral and removed restrictor,would appreciate info on valve clearance, air filter box and needle adjustment mods , Nick
Hi , Sorry for late reply and thanks for the ttr direction.Last Saturday I rode in a trial and gearing needed to be changed which I managed to do last night and I tried bike out tonight and the difference is amazing , I can use 2nd and 3rd now , still needs front pipe changing to help the bike breath tho. cheers Nick

Tuning-have a look around for TTR125 tuning gear there's a lot of stuff out there, the wallet might over heat! I bet its a great bike, I had the scorpa 125 when I started out and it was ace, the same soft power in the GG chassis sounds ideal for wobbler level (me).
Hi , Picked up my new Gas Gas Randonne'three weeks ago and rode it yesterday in the Bumpy Novice and Beginners trial . Apart from the header pipe being one of the ugliest on the market i.e. cat , mid box and leg guard , I love the little bike . The gearing needs altering and it feels as though it really needs to breath a lot better , any ideas on tuning anybody? Cheers Nick
How fickle we old riders are , after three years of restoring and one and a half years of riding and worrying about the 350 gasser it is up for sale because I have just bough a new gas gas TX 125 Randonne , it was the proper seat and electric start and the price that made me do it!
Hi, Only just read your topic , I have a 1990 gas gas aire 325 and would be really interested but friday is a work day so big problems , is the 10th a definite ? Nick
Unable to move footpegs "AL the Spanner" welded new ones on for me and they are set up brilliant for trials which is more important than my aching thighs and arms.Thank's for your comments and advice, Nick
ten out of ten for effort. your bike isnt built for long distance trials it was designed to ride sections not 85 road miles. the knack of riding the thing over long road distances is to vary your position and sitting down is a major part of that. i'd acknowledge that riding ' seated' is niether easy or comfortable yet i suspect that an officer of the law might 'demand' that you do so to be properly in control of your vehicle..
The bike is dual use and is modified for long distance work by adding a seat from a pit bike ,a 12 toothed front sprocket and a half litre metal drinks bottle fixed to the top of the fork downtube as a fuel reserve ,I also run an O'Ring chain .Would rolling the bars back towards my body allow me to stand more upright for the long distance stuff ?
Hi , just finished the Ilkley Classic trial, which has 85 miles of road work , on my 1990 gas gas 325 air cooled mono . When I was on the road and inbetween sections and stood up the riding position is very uncomfortable because I have to put too much weight on my arms and the only way to take weight off is to ride with bent knees but I find this impossble to maintain for any distance , anybody got any cures? Nick
