Introduce Yourself

hi all just bought a 2002 gas gas txt pro so that i could do courses set out for modern bikes and not destroy my old TY mono! I really like the bike but it has several issues! last sunday at rileys railway it blew the thermostat out at the bottom of a 30ft bank, its a pig to get into neutral and a proper git to start!! I think the starting issue might be down to having old fuel and it looks like the pilot jet has sheared off.hopefully a dip in the ultrasound tank and a new pilot might solve this problem. i have tested the fan with a battery and it runs ok, bit concerned that the pressure relief valve in the rad filler cap didn't blow before the thermostat, …

Here I am, Crockett from Spain and a red sherpa 250. Already asking questions!!

Hi everyone, I used to ride motorcycle since I was a kid, and I was practicing trial with my father when I was young. Now I have the place to practice again and I'll get a 2000 Beta Rev 3 270 next week end. And I will have a lot of questions !! :) Thanks in advance!

Hi All, decided to have a crack at trials after mainly riding enduros. Have found it great fun so far, with an awesome trials park just up the road. Unfortunately my beta Rev 3 has a botched ignition system which I need sort, without spending a fortune.

Hi all guys, I'm a new member and owner of a 2017 trial vertigo Fajardo 300 .. I'm not an expert, on the contrary .. I took it to follow my 6 year old son who took a beta minitrial.

Hi! I'm a newbie with a brand new M2R.. Looking for help with how to register it on the road. I've read a helpful thread on here from a few years a go but stuck with what to actually register it as, due to seat height being under 900mm 🤔

Hi I wonder can I get advice on the correct oils and quantity needed for my Gas Gas 2009 txt 250 pro

Hello I just bought a 250 Alpina (1974), no fenders, no electricity, few spokes broken but running engine. Of course, I will need some advices and feedbacks from this forum: First subject will be the seals for the crankshaft. I did in the past few bikes , and riding every day my 175KE (1976), I know my project will need months (probably years). I live near Princeton (NJ USA), Thank you

I gave in and bought a ‘16 Sherco 300 ST this week. BVM in Stroud dropped it off this afternoon. Straight onto fundamentals!

Hi all, yes another newly to what appears to be an excellent website and forum to boot. I am taking on a Sherpa T80 as a restore project, it was started before but ended badly by someone not known to me. the frame had been blasted and powder coated, but as I see it, still with the swinging arm in tact! The engine also looks like it’s been got at and so it goes on. So decided it’s a strip to the floor job for peace of mind, who knows what I’m gonna encounter. The thus end, I Wouk do like to think I can count on some sound advice if and when required. FYI I am not a rider anymore, at 74 I enjoy the challenge of taking the bikes apart and restoring them to factory stock. T…

Time to revisit this pastime. 25 years on and I cannot remember why I sold my bike but looking forward to having some fun now I have another. Club join - check ACU join - check Bike bought - check Advice sought - check See you out there, I will be the one stalking you for advice and tips 😂

Hi, A couple of weeks ago I bought a 1979 Bultaco Sherpa 250, really nice bike and restored by its former keeper. I have pretty much zero trialing experience although I have been riding bikes for around 35 years (probably a familiar tale!). Eventually I would like to enter some novice twin shock events if I can get my skill level beyond hopeless and the bike set up right! Anyway, i'm based in Cumbria near to Kirkby Stephen, are there any local clubs anyone can recommend? Cheers.

Hello everyone, my 8 yr old son b-day is coming up and I'm having a hell of a time finding an electric Oset/Beta 20. I'd starting looking at KTM's SXE5 but they are 8k with taxes and freight. Cascade in Mission use to have stock, even used one's but they are under ownership change. I've been watching Craigs and Marketplace but nada. Can anyone please recommend where I might look or share a contact if you know anyone that has a Oset, Beta or even a KTM SX E5. Interested in an electric bike so he can get more seat time. Thank you

Hi everyone I recently brought a beta evo 250 but unfortunately haven’t had much seat time. I’ve joined up to Nash but don’t know anyone in the area that rides so kinda limited to when I can drag the missis along so obviously not that fun. Looking for a couple buddies that I can tag along with and hopefully learn a bit from. I’m lucky enough to finish work early most days and I’m only 20 mins away so if anyone is popping down let me know would be great to get down there and ride 👍

Hello all from Calgary, Alberta Canada. Lots of old TY's through my childhood home and some amateur competition in the early 80's. After many years hiatus bought one for my son to play on a few years ago and it ended up parked in the garage for a few years. Picked up a parts bike and now have a decent running TY again. Love the old TY's!

Hi all Im stuart from Belfast After a 20 year break (last bike was an aprillia climber) I have just bought a gasgas txt 300 and joined a local club. Loooking forward to reading the many posts on this forum .

Hi, first off, what a great site. I have been reading near a week and for me it's the go to place. However there is a chap round the corner I need to talk to.. So reaching the big five oh, ( I can't even look at the numbers LOL) I decided it's time to start doing more. Active up until now I have the urge to do some 2 wheeled motorsport while I still have time to improve. Back in the late 90's when I was young, dumb and full of...enthusiasm I bought a GasGas JTR370. It was my first trials bike and i weighed less than 60kg. Need I say more? I enjoyed puttering around in the nearby woods but don't recall any events. I do remember checking them out though. I fa…
