  1. Adam Raga told me ....... and a few others on one of his training days ...... to keep one finger on the clutch lever and one finger on the brake lever ?
  2. Maybe just got some grit in there ? might be worth trying to clean it out. There is a special tool available but I`m sure people have made their own from something like a plastic bottle.
  3. BVM had their test/open day a few weeks ago, not sure if they have more than one but worth an ask.
  4. I have the black and found them to be water tight and wearing well after 3 years use. Outer skin gets scuffed up easily but I give them a coat of some dubbin type stuff on a regular basis.
  5. Grattarola has a foot on the rock at 11.07 in the video but was given a clean.

    Evo 4t Carb

    Spoke to a chap from Acklams about a mate`s bike that he was having problems with. He said they fit a 130 main jet as a matter of course in all the Beta 4t`s, replacing the 120.

    beta 2019

    The pictures look like they were taken at Silsden over the weekend. Acklams had the bike on display. Would it cause an issue if the kickstart was moved round on the spline to match the exhaust cutout ? It might stop it smashing into my new frame plastics and spoiling them after one ride
  8. He did get this one right though
  9. All down to running out of time I think. I followed the GP for most of the sections but got bored watching Raga and Bou walking the sections for 20 minutes each time. I moved along a few sections and managed to beat the crowd and watch some brilliant rides. At section14 (I think) I watched Raga turn up to the gate, nod to the official and ride the section without even a glance at it, indicating the last 2 were running very short of time, Bou did the same. Raga had the big off on the next section. Overall a brilliant event, my first world round, but I was disappointed to find no trade stands in evidence apart from 2 food vans, a beer stand and 4? dealers vans with some new bikes on display. Asking one of the vendors why there were no trade stands It was hinted that the cost was prohibitive. No T shirts to buy, no riding gear etc. etc. Compared to MotoGP or MotoX events it was a pretty poor show on that front.

    IOW 2 day

    I think you will find it a decent challenge. I looked at some of the sections tonight, nothing dangerous but look fairly tough for me (3rd season novice just qualified for pension ) We hope it proves to be fun as well as challenging ...... and it stays dry

    IOW 2 day

    I`m going .... but then, I do live there Sections are reckoned to be standard club trial level. I am doing easy, non road which should relate to the novice `C` route I normally ride. Our twin shock riders mainly ride C route or Clubman 50/50 so you should be fine. Road section is not too far BTW. See you at the trial, and the evening do I hope
  12. Most tops I have in XL size are generous to the point of being loose fit. Trousers on the other hand, even in XL seem to be a size smaller than labeled
  13. Ha Ha, the Folly is quite famous for the table dancing. Perhaps you should bring the bikes next time and ride the IOW 2 day in April
  14. This guy has a shedload of videos about building and modifying old trials bikes, mainly British, but does some serious frame mods. Worth a watch
