Get the sus setup and ride it bud. In as much mud as you can find. Don't try and ride it like your Gasser need to learn its quirks.

Spend more time riding it. Takes time to tune into a new bike regardless of discipline. Guess you've set the suspension up to suit and played with tyre pressure's? Did your previous gasser have a flywheel weight?

Only when its brass monkeys. Wearing gloves exacerbates wrist pump for me and struggle with sensitivity. Not worried about scrapes on trees ect Builder/carpenter so hands like old boot leather and always sporting cuts and gouges. Anything major and trials type gloves will be as much use as a chocolate kettle. Boots and helmet are a must.

Lol. Hunting and hanging. Previous owner did the same thing on my bike delorto though.

Started in a 315 years back. Sold up after 3 years for financial reasons but alwys felt overbiked on it. 8 yrs later i get a 125 14 stone or there abouts. More capable than I was. Swapped for a 250 315 after a couple of years when a family member couldn't get on with a recent purchase. never really struggled for grip. A 125 will require better technique. Certainly improved my riding and confidence and on a near identical 315 I feel in control and a much better rider. Don't regret the 125 and often miss it. They seem to feel a lot lighter and manageable even though the differences are negligible.

Out of everything on the market the one bike a really want to blag a ride on is the TRS. Don't fancy efi. Find the current breed of gg too light at the front for me and not a fan of tube frames. Narrows my options somewhat. That said. I love my 315 and loathe to sell.

Buying a brand new bike will instantly make me a better rider. Reality. Fettling and setting up your current bike will probably reap far more rewards.

But that's the point of the lanyard. Requires a wot situation to start dieseling then the kill switch will have no effect but the lanyard cuts the power before it even starts. I have a lanyard but unless I'm being brave (or stupid) its just tied to the bars and used as a kill switch

Or he could have removed the magnet with his right hand.. My lanyard is set so can be flicked off with my left thumb. The cord is tied to the handlebars.

I don't wear gloves. Don't like the reduced sensitivity and I find better grip barehanded. Also wearing gloves while riding aggravates my tendonitis and arm pump. What injury exactly is a pair of Lycra or similar gloves going to afford me. I'm a carpenter/builder my hand are like old leather. To answer the op. Section layout is key to safety. See some sections especially on the expert routes that leave little margin for error.

Try both see what geometry and power delivery suits. Everybody's different. Technique trumps power.

Droping your tyre pressures a bit will help. A tip I was given a few years back. Move your toes onto the pegs and push your heels down while squatting a bit. Has the effect of moving your weight down and back while keeping your upper body fairly central to control the front end.

People don't seem bothered that I've spoken to. Personally I signed months back. Not sure if this is the same petition as you didn't include a link in the op. Shared around all the usual suspects again on FB.

Just about to say 16 and saw the final post. Ordered my 16 this morning. My 5yr old outgrew the 12.5 in the summer. Great for teaching basics but was holding him back. Time to get my 2yr old on the 12.5 full time. He loves it.

Just upgraded my eldest to a 16 and want to try and smooth out the power delivery on the old 12.5 for my youngest. Slower I set the speed the further the throttle has to be turned to bring the power in and the less sensitivity there is. What's the best way to improve. Kelly controller? Debating lipo for the weight savings when the batteries have had there day. Cheers lads.

An abundance of confidence in the last video. I to suffer with confidence issues. I'm capable but the little voice in my head says this will hurt.(One income family )riding with mates helps massively though. New bike and riding after a long day on the tools isn't helping either.

And go and see Jason at tricks in the sticks. Just got back from a visit great day and learnt a lot. Wish I'd done one when I first got the bike.

Problem fixed. It was the needle clip. Ticks over and crawls as smooth as a sewing machine now. Rev's aren't hanging either now. Cheers Jim your diagnosis was spot on.

After checking a few diagrams and pics this is definitely in the wrong position. Relevant digits crossed as I've got a 300 mile round trip for a training day in the morning. Be great to have it cock on for the day. I'll add this to the list of bodges I inherited from the old boy it came off. Best one. Incorrect sparkplug no R rating and not even the correct thread diameter.

Umm actually. This might be it. Only had to strip and clean the carb on my last bike and never really paid attention to the slides construction. Just hung it over the frame after a spray. When I checked the needle height earlier I was able to push the needle up inside the spring and get to the clip. It was above the plate the spring locates into.

Good idea. Guessing as the stator ect is fitted to the cover I could just back the bolts off enough to pass air without affecting it. Would leave no doubt it's crank seal then. Unfortunately I don't have a puller to hand or I would have checked it's condition with the mark 1 eyeball already. Carb is as it should be but all old seals. And squeaky clean. Pilot jet is brand new too. Stepped up 3 sizes when I fitted reads. Air screw was right out previously.

Yup carb cleaner all over. No change in idle. Il have another check tomorrow just in case. Driving me nuts. Other than these issues she runs superbly. Pulls like a train from any throttle position including near stalling in all 3 gears on steepish climbs. Rev's out cleanly and develops power evenly across the board. Should have seal kit for the carb next week. Fingers crossed.

Afternoon Guys. Exhausted my limited ability troubleshooting and in need of advice. 315r 2001 Sea level Pbhl26 Pilot jet 36 Main 110 Needle one notch from bottom. Fuel screw 2 out. Dual stage boysens Large opening air box lid. All restrictors removed before I got it. 2 issues possibly connected. Hunting idle. 1/8 throttle and il happily chug along smoothly but no throttle and it will chug erratically surging and dying. Worse with a richer mixture. Also taking a while for revs to die down after blipping throttle and front firing Improved with a richer mixture. Checked for air leaks and all good outside. Flywheel is tight with zero play. Next idea. Rebuild carb with new seals etc Failing that crank seal ignition side? No sign of water in the oil either so the rhs seems sound. Any other suggestions. Cheers. Rob

Can do cool stuff with plotters.never though about gaskets though lol Top marks for ingenuity.
