Hi All, Does anyone have a copy of the Parts or owners manual for 241? Any info gratefully accepted. ta..

RED 04 GASGAS TXT PRO & RED 05 MONTESA 4RT were stolen in Ipswich 21/22 June, any info please let me know ta.. gassar..

Can anyone tell me whether the main bearing oil seals on an 06 290 can be replaced without splitting the engine? I have oil in the crankcase, possible leaky main bearing oil seal, but the oil is not the same colour as the transmission oil. any suggestions?? gassar

no the bearing that connects the piston to the con rod via the gudgeon pin?

that's the point without the size a bearing dealer is not much use??

does anyone know the small end bearing size for a 06 290? can they be obtained from a local bearing dealer? ta.. gassar

cheers for that, leaner means hotter - explains possible slight loss in power when very warm - possibly causing 2t in exhaust to light off, this may have been the object of the previous owner. Tomorrow I'm off on my hols to southern France, might just pop over the border to the factory and see what I can blag. I'll try the stock setting next outing. ta.. again.. gassar

hi, yes, I have only managd to find 03 290 info, my airscrew is 2.5 turns out, this my be the problem as the 03 spec is 3.5 turns out, Just need to confirm 06 290 stock setting? ta..gassar

thanks for the help, you have confirmed my initial thoughts. still trying to confirm 06 290 airscrew settings, I have found that 03 stock is 3.5 turns out my bike is 2.5 turns. I'll try 3.5 next outing. gassar

hi, new to this but learning fast, I have found some useful stuff and links here but, had bike 2 weeks, seems to have been well maintained previously but I have some questions:- 1. where can I find an 06 manual/poster? 2. what is the mixture screw stock setting? 3. previously run at 50:1 fully synthetic I have changed to 70:1 but bike still smokes a little more than anyone else's? 4. bike has revved out (same as when tank is empty) but when at uphill angle and leaning to the right, is this normal or possible float level mis-adjustment? 5. what is the stock float level setting? 5. bike seems to run fine from cold but seems to lose some power when very warm, this may be normal, but I would like to know the cause and sort if possible? hope someone can help?
