The riding experience in Gould, Colorado's Teller Divide is truly remarkable. The diverse terrain and varying levels of difficulty keep you on your toes. From smooth single tracks to challenging, steep ascents, there's something for every rider. My 2024 GasGas EC300 handled each trail with ease, while the powerful Husqvarna 501 kept up effortlessly. The KLX 250 performed well overall, though it...

This is the Teller Divide Trail in Gould Colorado. This place is littered with trails and has a little bit for everybody. This particular segment features a rocky hill climb that extends for several miles. My 2024 GasGas EC300 did amazing on this steep section of trail.

The experience of dirt biking on the new trail systems was exceptional, and my GasGas EC300 performed excellent as expected. It was awesome to ride alongside a varied assortment of motorcycles, including the Zero FX and KLX 250. The trail riding opportunities in Northern Colorado are often underestimated, and can't wait for the next adventure.

    With the crank seals I see the crank seal under the flywheel but is there one under the clutch side? I have two bottom ends. I've swapped my top end onto the first one and it doesn't get any suction from the carb but has good compression still and I haven't swapped bottom ends yet because i'm wanting to replace crank seals beforehand. I've had this second bottom end running before but it would bog out by 4th gear and become hard to start so i ended up losing interest and selling the top end to that one to a buddy. It still shifted through all the gears and the crank and everything is pretty immaculate except the shifter cover is cracked but thats an easy swap. not trying to split the cases or even get into the clutch side if i don't have to but my plan is order crank seals and replace the one under the flywheel in the second bottom end then swap everything i need to that one and pray it works fine.

    • @the_rocky_mountain_rider
      @the_rocky_mountain_rider 8 месяцев назад

      No seals on the clutch side that i recall or can see in the reassembly instructions. I woulnt think its a lower end seal being the culprit, but perhaps the reeds on the head. How do you know your not pulling air in? Sounds like your reeds are not opening, to let air in, which admittidly would be a bit strange, but possible. Bogging down in 4th could be a number of issues, such as jetting size, dirty jets or fuel bowl level not set correctly. That almost sounds like your starving for fuel.

      That's great to hear! I like that folks are reviving old bikes still. Yes, first thing i would do is to make sure you look online for all the parts you need. There is nothing worse than tearing into a bike and later realizing that the part you want is not available or cost too much. Second, make sure you have a several boxes to put old parts in and sandwich bags with labels for nuts and bolts. Having labeled bags and boxes for parts really helps the reassembly process. Third, tires were difficult to find, but available. Just something to keep in mind for final touches. And lastly, have fun with it!

      Good question, however I've never tried. It's been sitting in my garage since the rebuild...too much snow. I've heard from various sources that people were getting them up to about 50 mph. I suppose it depends on the weight of the rider as well. It certainly has some pep to it though.
