September 14, 200916 yr Hopefully getting a 2010 125 to convert to 225,just wondering if anyone with any 2010 gasgas has any reports yet?? Cheers
September 14, 200916 yr Hi Les, you alright. I've actually seen one at a quarry this weekend, looked good & that was a 125, wouldn't imagine it would be that different though, go ahead with the 225 though, i no you was really determined to convert it! I've just found out my radiator is cracked on my 300 lol. Ben. Edited September 14, 200916 yr by GasGasben

Benz I no they are really rubbish rads, it kept losing loads of water lol, better do something about it before the bike ends up boiling up.
September 15, 200916 yr There's nothing wrong with the Radiator!!! It's the Fan casing that rubs through the pipes. I had NYL's modified. You basically either take it off and trim about 1 to 2 mm off the bit that crossed the rad at the top and bottom but leaving the edges where it touches the radiator surround allowing it to stand off the pipes. The other way TrialsUK did ours was to remount it on two holes either side that are slightly further forward of the existing one pushing it back 1 to 2mm and stopping it moving.

Some how mine is cracked, i'm going to get it repaired though, but i have heard of quite a few rads what have broken.

September 16, 200916 yr Hi Jan, The 125's have a shorter stroke motor than the 250/280/300, when fitted with a 250 cylinder they would provide quite a snappy power response, probably need a little flywheel weight too. Bye, PeterB.
September 25, 200916 yr Can you tell me what year(s) this fan strut cutting into radiator problem affected? I have an 09 TXT Pro 250. First trials bike, love it.
