I dont keep the fact that I am a Beta fan any kind of a secret. I also dont make a habit of running other brands down. Basically I could care less what anybody thinks of what bike I ride or what they ride. With that being said I have noticed something interesting in my area of the world with my fellow riders. People have been asking me what I will switch to when the 4 strokes take over. They immediatly go on to explain that Betas 4 will be crap and I will not be happy with one. I have to admitt that I have not heard many details on the Beta 4 and they dont have the resources of Honda and Yamaha. However, Beta is a quality company that is rather diverse. For someone to …

The UK Daily Telegraph writes on 28 May 2014 on how children are now being denied scary moments on TV programmes though oddly he says not in films such as Disney's new 'Maleficient.' Tom Payne the writer goes on to say about the tele... "The world of Tom and Jerry seems remote; and how incredible it is that there was ever a programme called Junior Kickstart, in which small boys hurtled round muddy tracks on motorbikes, toppling over menacing obstacles for the amusement of other small boys." Very remote ha ha, though I like the toppling over bit.

More specifically good balance. https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2022/nov/02/can-you-stand-on-one-leg-for-10-seconds-why-balance-could-be-a-matter-of-life-and-death-and-how-to-improve-yours Shame the article did not highlight motorcycle trials as a superb way to maintain balance and something very very suitable for older people, ladies particularly.

Any ideas where I can read the results? It appears to have not been reported anywhere. Thanks in advance

Hi all, I'm patinting my front AJP caliper and the bolt.holding the caliper wouldn't come out. I ended up using a blow torch to heat the bolt so the damn thing would come out. In doing so I've blown one of the piston seals. Does anyone know where I can buy an AJP 4 pot piston seal without having to buy a full repair kit? I've been googling 25mm piston seal and I'm not too confident it will be the right seal. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Fully understand that I shouldn't take blow tourches to things lol, my impact driver is in the post.

It's amazing what you can buy in a Lingerie shop now days Best of balance. Neo

Is anyone else in the UK watching the NATC coverage on Pulse (UK sky Channel 208, 3-4pm and am)? I'm really impressed to have some regular trials on UK TV at last! Even the Hillclimb and Supermoto keep me amused! I assume you guys across the pond get regular NATC coverage? Just wish it was the same for the British championship! Or maybe it is and I haven't found it yet....... (answers on a postcard please!) Anyways people in the UK - watch Pulse! I figure we have to support regular trials coverage wherever we can get it! Andy - Just realised I may have contrevened the rules on posting with Pulse being a UK specific channel. Apologies and please move if necessary!!
