Wow! In the spirit of Fujigas! "Son of Fujigas" could be nickname!

Now hang on a minute... MMMMMmmmm! I'll ask the question...

It looks like a Honda motor in a Beta frame with Showa forks, with 2015 JTG colours... WHAT!!!!!!!?????? Or just a coloured up Cota, but where is tank and tail looks different?

Can some one enlighten me to what the bike is...

I was thinking the same! This is the next Fujinami :hyper:

It's a pre 2014 Honda/Montesa 4RT (it's called Honda RTL260F in Japan) with the "normal" Honda frame but it's a Mitani (= japanese tuner) version.

It even has a twin spark head like Bou's bike (if you look closely you can see the two coils on the left side of the engine)

Tomi's bike this year is a full on factory bike with the Mitani plastics and colour scheme, (I think he's helping with developement as Toni isn't using the new clutch anymore). He's been around for a long time now and is current Japanese champion. The bikes he rode in previous years were a Mitani RTL 300 + with just about every trick part and titanium everything. I believe he has support from Honda, HRC and his main sponsor is Mitani and it's owner Tomoaki Mitani.

Excellent rider. Many of the top Japanese riders appear that they would do well riding the WTC.

But did you see the bit where he rolled forward 3 inches on flat ground...........I could do that. :D

Hah! Thats nuffin Zippy! I can roll backwards on a hill for a full 5!

My trials theory is... get a 5 early and then relax for rest of section! Hehehehehe Until you get chipped for not clearing the section straight away! Hehehehe
