This kit is specifically designed for the Gas Gas EC 250 models from 2021, 2022, and 2023.
This kit provides the replacement parts. It does not include installation instructions. Referencing your motorcycle's official service manual is highly recommended for proper installation.
Installation typically requires specialized tools such as bearing presses, seal drivers, and a torque wrench. Refer to your motorcycle's service manual for a complete list and specifications.
While designed for off-road use, the kit meets OEM quality standards. For competitive MX racing, consider the demands on your suspension and consult with a professional mechanic regarding optimal setup.
Service intervals vary based on riding conditions. It is recommended to consult your Gas Gas EC 250's owner or service manual for specific maintenance schedules regarding linkage lubrication and bearing inspection.
The pins in this kit are made of 52100 High Grade Steel.
The dust seals are made from Nitrile Butadiene, a durable material suitable for off-road conditions.
Ensure all components are clean and properly lubricated. Verify that collars and bearings are seated correctly and not binding. Check that the pins are straight and not causing misalignment. Overtightening can also cause stiffness; consult service manual for correct torque specifications.
Confirm that the correct seals were installed and are functioning properly to prevent contamination. Ensure the linkage is not being subjected to excessive stress or impact beyond its design limits. Verify correct installation torque to avoid premature wear.
Ensure all mating surfaces are clean. Use appropriate tools for pressing bearings and seating seals. Slight warming of metal components or cooling of bearings can sometimes aid in seating, but use caution to avoid damage.
Compatibility: This kit (LRK-T-031) is exclusively designed for the Gas Gas EC 250 model years 2021, 2022, and 2023. Ensure your motorcycle model and year match before installation.
Setup: Installation requires the complete disassembly of the rear suspension linkage. It is recommended to have specialized tools such as bearing presses, seal drivers, and torque wrenches. Clean all components thoroughly before assembly. Refer to your motorcycle's official service manual for detailed step-by-step instructions on linkage removal, bearing replacement, and reassembly procedures. Proper lubrication of new bearings and seals during installation is crucial.
Care: After installation, periodically inspect the linkage for any signs of contamination or damage. Clean the area around the linkage regularly to prevent dirt and debris from entering the seals. Re-greasing at recommended service intervals, as per your motorcycle's manual, will extend the life of the new bearings and seals.
