Hi I'm trying to find out how to test the secondary winding of the ignition coil. The manual helpfully just says to test it. I've tried a multimeter set for resistance,with the red lead on to the HT lead end, (cap off)and the black to earth and got no reading. but when I tried this on a new coil I still got no reading, so assuming somethings not right. Continuity on the HT line seems fine. Any ideas? Basic problem is no spark. Cheers

What’s everyone using? I have an x11 on the rear which I thought used to be the holy grail, I was at Shatterford on Sunday and a bloke there was saying they are rubbish, no grip! Dunlop’s are the dogs, best grip ever. Was he talking *****? No self respecting rider would touch Dunlop a few years ago!

Hi all, Just noticed in the latest edition of trialsworld, supertrick 4rt top yokes , allowing fitment of FAt bars, and footpeg mounts moving the pegs backwards....They are the same ones as fitted to the "Hope" Monts at the SSDT. Very nice, but, seing as i have just shelled out on a 4rt (after much deliberation, not to mention scrimping and saving), trick bits will have to be put on hold, for the time being. I thought some of you may be interested. Cheers

I picked up a new 2006 4rt a few weeks ago. If you have recently purchased one, you should check that the engine breather is venting properly. The hose comes out of the top left of the valve cover and goes up to a small catchment tank up underneath the steering head. From the tank, a second hose runs to the top left front side of the air box. This routing recycles any excess air out of the engine back into the intake via the air box. From the factory, my breather hose was doubled back on itself just before the air box, effectively sealing it. It wasn't that obvious as the pinched part was tucked up behind the frame, just above the rear brake reservoir. The quick w…

Hi all, My 1998 315 has appears to be somewhat sickly. I'm struggling to get it to idle without setting the tickover very high. At low revs it's constantly surging, at a rate of about 1 surge per second. It revs up nicely, but when you shut the throttle is takes an age for the revs to drop (several seconds), and it surges on the way down. I think it may be running quite hot too. It's had these problems for a while, but they've been getting steadily worse. I took the carb off the other day and gave it a good clean - now the problems are worse than ever. It's so bad now I had to borrow my mate's beta to ride a trial today! Anyone got any ideas on what might be wron…
