GPX TSE 250R 2022 Mods Tips & Tricks

[@esmeben]

Cracking vid, one mod you might want to make is remove the hose on the cylinder head that comes out of the head and goes back into the head without connecting to anything. This fitting is to connect to the carb to act as a heater for the carb, it's from the base Yamaha motor fitted to the DT230, I had the same fitting on my DT125R I removed it and plugged the holes,, just to take another worry away when you are racing the bike.

[@shahjan731]

Thats mean just put the screw for those two hole?

[@thailandmopedadventures611]

Great Info - thanks for sharing❤

[@RobboRobinson]

Just for your info I went back to a cable clutch as the hydraulic space cylinder was not reliable after dirt and jet wash contamination. Cable clutch has been no problem.

@@RobboRobinson Thanks Buddy, good to know for my upcoming list on the ordered bike!

[@agee8322]

Might be worth looking at filing the sharps off the inner part of brake pedal so it is less likely to puncture cover 👍🏻

[@thailandmopedadventures611]

Oh man this is great & detailed stuff to help us out! Highly appreciated❤❤❤

[@gnccUK2010]

Great video Rob, this is definitely going to help those who wish to buy this bike and keep the longevity and condition tip top, great advice as usual 👍🏻

[@Retrotrials]

That's a terrific list of mods and a very very informative video. Christ your bike is clean 👍😁

[@RUSTY-A-L]

Robbo this is an excellent video for any brand of bike, well done.

[@RobboRobinson]

Thanks Rusty ✊🏻

[@TeamSimpsonRacing]

Great video buddy and fantastic engineering skills 💪

[@whitehollywood6447]

Great tips man!! Gonna do the rear bolt and skid plate! I just got my cones in !! Will install after holidays

[@RobboRobinson]

Merry Xmas yeah buddy

[@bobbyratliff3349]

When I done the aluminum skid on mine I had to trim the side wings but it was a different brand I believe it had taller sides. Also has to massage it into place with a large hammer.

[@stoplogicmotorsports]

Made sure to sub, love the deep dive into functional farkles

[@RobboRobinson]

Just seen your review of White Hollywoods bike. Glad you like the suspension mine rides really well. 👍🏻

[@stoplogicmotorsports]

@@RobboRobinson For a man of my... generous proportions it's amazing. White Hollywood drew the same complaint about my WR250R of having rear suspension like a electric bull.

[@RobboRobinson]

Cracking mods bud awesome 👍🏻 Merry Christmas 🎄⛄🎅🙏🏻

[@tomatdb52]

Great video! I've got the same issue with the break pedal and the pushrod on my bike (Kamax, not GPX). I've placed washers between the pedal and the lever, but it's about 20mm too low, so need to get it up more.

[@sixtysecondsofstephens2386]

Great video, I'm enjoying the gpx and how your getting on with it. Could you do a video please on cleaning bikes. Yours looks absolutely incredibly clean. Cheers Joe.

[@RobboRobinson]

I’m sure I can do something I have touched on this before though but no problem. I’ll put a link on in the next comment 👍🏻

@@sixtysecondsofstephens2386 I can’t seem to find the link so it looks like I’ll have to make a video for you 😂👍🏻

[@MikeHF]

Either this bike is slow or everybody I see riding it are slow riders! does it have enough power to wheelie in the first 3 or 4 gears?

[@miketursky1410]

What about extra support for shifter shaft.

[@agee8322]

Really informative stuff there Robbo. All good mods that won't break the bank. Out of interest, has it been easy enough to ensure the bike?

[@RobboRobinson]

Just on a temp policy till V5 arrives DVLA on go slow at mo. Once I get that and finalise it I'll let people know what the score is.

[@agee8322]

@@RobboRobinson thanks Robbo 👊

[@RUSTY-A-L]

Somewhere I read about a mod for the power valve that originated from Brazil. Have you seen or heard about this?

[@kevinpeterson5779]

Pretty decent bike for the money. But my question is is the engine a 250 based off the 230 Yamaha or is it a 250???

[@RobboRobinson]

It’s a 224cc bud trail bike tuned for longevity. 90hrs at mo and proving very reliable. I reckon 200hrs before a piston change.

[@kevinpeterson5779]

Wish they advertised more, because I ended up buying a kayo kt 250 because I had no clue GPX existed until I started searching for parts and then I found Gpx…

[@RobboRobinson]

@@kevinpeterson5779 are you USA or UK

[@kevinpeterson5779]

USA

[@kevinpeterson5779]

Yeah I have to go through GPX to get all my parts for upgrades and mods. And their customer service at GPS in Utah is excellent

[@jamesthebond0072]

Can you jump these bikes like yzf250 all like a proper entry level dirt bike or is it more just for enduro

[@RobboRobinson]

It’s full size suspension but enduro based so a little soft for big jumps but the bike is capable if you are capable.

[@snowfreak207]

What bolts fit this just ktm and parts like the clutch hoses and stuff

[@s.t.7518]

I was wondering if you could tell me exactly what skid plate that you have I have the exact same bike

[@RobboRobinson]

Hi Buddy, Enduro engineering product code 24-016 skid plate & linkguard 31-017

[@K0ko07]

Does it take KTM nuts n bolt ?

[@snowfreak207]

I wanna know too

[@andrewnewcomb3889]

I bought the 10ten 250rx can’t get a sump guard have you any ideas what would fit?

[@RobboRobinson]

Measure the internal and external width dimensions of the frame rails. It was by chance we had this skid plate in the shop at Eurotek to try for size. Let me know your dimensions they might be the same as GPX. ✊🏻

[@andrewnewcomb3889]

[@Crazyfornayeon]

do you recommend any amp on the batt? im having a hard time starting my gpx its cranking but wont continue so im not sure if its battery or starter motor

[@RobboRobinson]

On the 2 stroke TSE 250 GPX a standard battery should be more than adequate. A lithium one like used on the KTM bikes gives approximately same cold cranking power. If it’s now turning over quickly you may have a starter motor issue. Sometimes when a starter motor is going bad it will spin ok when cold. Once it starts to get warm it can start to seize so spinning is slower. Will the bike start on the kicker ?

[@Crazyfornayeon]

@@RobboRobinson also wont start on kick,

[@RobboRobinson]

@@Crazyfornayeon put a fresh plug in.

[@roypatterson9910]

You are shifting a little too soon, you need to get a little bit more into the Power Band and higher revs. Just my opinion. I've riding dirt bikes my whole life, I've raced Motocross when I was younger, I've had three 2 - strokes and two × 4 - strokes, which one was a Yamaha XT 125, but I love the two strokes and always will, they are just more exciting than 4 strokes, and they are faster.

You don't even need a kickstand, not unless you plan on parking it and parking lots and a parking spot, put out on the trails riding, all you need is a tree or a wall.

45hrs beating it up and it’s going strong. If that’s all you’ve got to say and cannot enter into some constructive dialogue then it’s a poor do.
