Swapped my well used 06 in for an ex ssdt 09 with Sandifords before they had "issues". They are different. The 09 steers better the engine is smoother and the clutch has much better feel and lighter. Considered a Gasser at the time but glad I choose the 4RT its more reliable which in my book means more fun. I think if you ride one you'll want one!

Just add my two peneth' Rode the Ilkley Grand National time and observation trial on saturday. Took bike off trailer filled with petrol, thrashed it as hard as possible for two hours non stop. Finished trial put bike back on trailer had cup of tea and bar of chocolate. watched several other folk limp back in with broken bikes (non of which were 4RTs). went home washed bike had tea and went out for half a gallon of beer. Thats what I call a perfect day. Will spend an hour or so prepping for this weekends national and then repeat same procedure. Please note I won't be asking for any technical information on TC because there's nowt to fix but chains and tyres. So.... there is a lorra lorra luv right here for my 4RT!

Rode both trials this weekend, both brilliant with no queuing to worry about. Regarding Mick Wren's original comment, I talked to one guy who was visiting from "down south". He had never been to the area before and came up with his mates in the van. Surely if the club can accomodate it where's the harm. Bloke had some fun, club got some cash.... win win. (On the ACU std. regs there is a class for non championship.) Has anybody seen sundays results yet?

Had a 15 year lay off myself once, I'm now on my 3rd comeback and loving every minute of it. Enoy yourself its later than you think!!

Pleased to hear everythings in place, as I've just blown me budget on a bike and van to do the series! I've also had to agree with 'er indoors to a new kitchen to get time off !!

Hmmmmmm Why not ride a Bantam? I kinda have this quaint idea that as my first trials bike was a Bantam so it should also be my last. And as i'm not fit enough to do another SSDT, the pre 65 would give me the opportunity to ride in Scotland and relive my youth (and middle age). So why you no likey Bantams?
