General Trials Talk

being a bit on the plump side, i'd be interested to hear what other folk do about clothing. I'm a 42 waist and so far i've been unable to find anything that fits. Surely i'm not the only BIG bloke who does trials

A good mate of mine is coming to Oz in December until the beginning of Jan and is looking to hook up with some of you trials types over there! (PA maybe). He is willing to rent a bike to go for a ride while there, and possibly ride and event if there is one! Any help would be much appreciated!!!! Cheers, Steve

I need a 26 x 1.5mm flywheel puller (RH thread) does anyone know where I can get one in the UK, preferably online?

How do yas do a Steve Colley style sit down wheelie, with left leg out. I have a 250cc beta standard gearing. What gear do yous think would be the best for this? Thanks

Great little bike, had loads of fun on the thing and its got enough power for sit down wheelies so im happy! Ha. By the sounds of things they are taking it to hawkstone so check it out!!

Hi anyone out there got programs of wye valley traders trials from the late 1970s &early 1980s? Cheers

While on Holiday in the Algarve last week we went to the Faro M/C bike rally near Faro air port. although not a trials event it is one of the biggest motorcycle events in the world, with around 120,000 motorcycles taking part. It had everythink you could ask for, very loud rock consort that started around 10pm every evening and went on till about 4am, 24hr drinking , fun fair, erotic dancing, (real hot bitich's ) Custom bike show, side shows etc, and the ball of death, which i belive is band in England. But the most impressive stunt was the fact that some lads from Britain rode there on Honda 90 step throughs, thats about 2000 miles. Aparently it took them 11 days. Ma…

Got to be the best bike you'll ever own http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...4561199500&rd=1

A few of my mates have been arguing about what is the largest by cc, and largest by horsepower, of all trials bikes, ancient and modern..... anyone care to enter a few models in the ring??? S.M.

How do you do donuts with both feet up?

Evening all, Just curious, is there any place in this big world called the internet that one can order nuts and bolts...Wanting to tart the bike up a bit and looking for anodized as well as normal ones. Any ideas? Cheers me Dears.

Does anyone know when the new gas gas is out. is there any major changes or a price increase.

I am looking to buy a bike to do some trail riding and possibly try some of the trials type manuevers. I rode a ty250 as a kid,and really enjoyed the way it handled in the woods, as well as its ability to climb any hill that I was brave enough to attempt. My question is, with the styling of the new bikes is it possible to install a larger fuel tank so that I could ride longer distances thruogh the woods without the worry of running out of fuel. Thanks for your input!!!!!!!!

Hi, I have done a search for this but had no success, The front wheel on my rev3 has a little buckle in it ( about 3 mm either way ), The buckle isn't massive though and I realise that if I start to try and straighten it then it could take ages. Is it worth trying to fix or should I just forget about it, will it get worse? The wheel isn't egged so it is straightenable. If I should fix it then any tips? It is terrible when you are cleaning your bike that you keep finding little problems like this isn't it. cheers Bob

Interested to see how many grades other countries run. Im in Australia, and we seem to run a varied set of grades in every state. Like to know what others are using, especially for the Juniors

On behalf of a friend who has an Aprillia TXT ? early air cooled mono-shock with a Rotax based engine. How much of what type of oil should there be in the transmission.

I recently had the bike in at the local dealer for a few tidying up jobs doing. Its the dealer that I have always used, and have bought two bikes from there, plus had all the various jobs done. In the past, whenever I've put the bike in for work doing, I've always awaited collecting it with eagerness, as it was like picking up a new bike. Above and beyond the work I had requested, she was always beautifully steam cleaned, chain lubed and greased, the carb tweaked (tickover and mixture I guess) to perfection, and a new sticker or two. This time, however, I got the bike back in more or less exactly the same state as I'd left it in. Admittedly, all the work had been don…
