Heard a while ago that Knighter was on his way to BMW. I suppose it leaves a place in the factory team for me now.....

I dunno Ewan and Charlie have a lot to answer for.
Who'd have thought Knighter would be guided by them two muppets eh

is jarvis still contracted to sherco or with brownie moving there does it give him the chance to move on possibly full crack at the wec with ktm. or is he not quite ready for that yet.

Didn't I hear somewhere recently that he could have ridden his last Scott Trial? I've got it in my head somewhere that he's going full tilt Enduro next year, but might be wrong?

[wri5hty]

im sure i read he was not doing the btc next year so probably is moving over. good luck to the lad i hope he does well. will miss him at the cleveland he's the master of that too.

Jarvis did win the Romaniacs race, the craziest enduro on earth. I think Knighter will have the edge on Jarvis in comps because of his experience, and Knighter makes a KTM 450 look like a trials bike he such a big bloke. Strange how Knighter, Sagar, Braybrook, Jarvis do so well in enduro's, think i might enter one myself - erzberg could be a good starting point
