I suppose the paying public would rather not wait whilst a repair was carried out. Can't see why a second bike would be a problem though? They need to take notice of the way Sheffield was run. Riders taking turns on seperate sections would allow the bikes to be repaired without the public having to sit and wait it out. I agree with the 1 bike thing though, spare bikes is a bit of a joke really...

Yep, even with the stinking hangover and dodgy guts

I agree 100%, nothing wrong with a scoop appearing in the forums. Then, read the full story with photo's once the official press release is sent and published on the front page.

See here for my opinion of it http://www.trialscentral.com/forums/index....1190&st=400 The suspension, turning, weight and brakes feel the same as the Rev-3 to me. For some reason, the bike feels more stable, don't know why though...

Is it this one? http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/...ategoryId=38262

It's brilliant and I love it I admit that I took a bit of a gamble by ordering one of the first batch without even seeing or hearing one in action but I'm now very glad that I did. It will take a couple more outings to get used to it proper but so far, so good. Very impressed with the way it felt so planted and stable - so easy to ride which makes you feel confident on it straight away. The engine braking is there but it isn't harsh, doesn't free wheel as easy as a 2 stroke does if you know what I mean. It started first kick from cold this morning with no throttle, knocked the choke off straightaway as per Griffo's advice and the bike ran perfectly all day. I stalled it a few times and it fired up first/second kick every time - didn't need to use the 'hot start' lever either. I think the stalling was due to me not being used to a 4 banger along with the engine being tight and the tickover set too low. Upped the tickover slightly and that seemed to cure it. It's had 5 hours running time now so another 5 or 10 should have everything bedded in nice and gentle. I will then fit the speedo and see what it's like down the road. No cough from tickover at all. In fact, I had it parked up and running for half an hour the other night and the revs picked up instantly when I cracked the throttle open. Sharing the same frame and running gear as the Rev-3 makes the change easier for me. The engine allows you to just chug along as slow as you like. However, open it up a bit and there's plenty of oomph for your money. A mate of mine said the power delivery comes on stonger than his 280 GasGas. It's in the garage now, all washed off, greased up and ready to go again PS It grips like **** too

I saw Dabill practicing today, he looked very comfortable on the Mont and was making the big stuff look so easy - as per usual

Ooh, cruel little pun

a) Because I love Beta's, nothing else will do... B ) Because it's new c) It looks luvverly d) I've never had a 4 stroke e) It sounds good f) and finally, coz it's my money

Wow, less than half the score of 2nd place Raga

I know this has been asked before but has anybody got any recommendations for good/cheap insurance companies in the UK? My insurance lapsed last year and I forgot to renew it I got the paperwork through for my bike this morning and it states 'Rev-3 Four Stroke' so hopefully it's listed as an existing bike on their manufacturers database...

Oops! It might have been the International Invitational round and it might have been Friday Still, bloody good result first time out for him and the team...

Toni Bou won the first World Indoor trial last night beating Raga and Fujinami - not bad for his first time out on the Mont'

I just cant' take it any more, goodbye cruel world!

Brilliant explanation Woody (them two buggers up there just confused me ) I asked the question because I saw a bike at JLI's that had the forks flush with the top yoke - just made me curious I suppose... Cheers

Where the hell is he aiming to land?

Altering the forks by sliding them up or down the yokes does what exactly?

You don't pull sickies when you're a multi-millionaire that owns the company I wish!

True, it might be

Sorry to butt in but who was after a Bou replica helmet the other week? I saw them in Colin Appleyards, Keighley.

Wow! Over 400 replies so far, some good, some bad and some just plain silly I picked mine up today so going back to the original questions: - What? Very compact 4 stroke motor in a modified Rev-3 frame. When? The first full batch of production models for sale now. Where? All over the UK but don't expect to pop into your local dealer and simply buy one. How Much?

That's weird! The photo shows people in the background so the camera hasn't been angled yet the video makes it look like something completely different. I was stood at that section and believe me, the photo is the most realistic. That rock face was huge and very steep, almost vertical. It was also undercut by a good 3 or 4 feet of nothingness...

I've already got the boobs It's for my daughter, she missed out last year due to some camping trip or summat

Thanks Katy, do we book in advance or turn up on the day?

Where, when, how much etc? Ta.
