Small Sig Change



RD400 gone, sold to Tog. Breaking now.
Small acquisition made. 65kg small.

Gas Gas 250 Raga.
I was pretty taken by these as they come with all the goodies. Magnesium
crankcases & sw'arm, fat bars, Keihin carb, ally fork tubes etc.

Rode it back to back with a similar 280 TXT Pro, which had a more vicious
initial power delivery, standing vertical at every opportunity. The Raga
with the Keihin carb comes in more softly and trickles along easily in 1st,
more power than I will ever need is only a few degrees of throttle away.
It'll need a rear sprocket with more teeth (for the likes of me) in the
really nadgery stuff. Strong engine braking.

I'm tender today after spending the afternoon on it but it's so good I was
immediately clearing log obstacles I hadn't dared try before. Up dirt tracks
in 4th it's more like an Enduro bike.

I recommend one to the crowd.
