love mine so much i bought a second one.....

i cant get super unleaded here, would octane booster help i wonder? the one i got for my old lad has a bit of knock rolling off alright

as in what way? mine starts 2nd kick from cold, first kick when hot, get the odd stutter sometimes but following my mates 2010 gasser the other day and his does the same!

doesnt sound too bad for the money, i've just bought my another as a present for my old lad and paid €900 for it although its a 99 model. i've had my 98 model for 2 years and had to do very little to it, chain and sprockets, wheel bearings etc. they are mechanically pretty much bombproof and i dont think you'll regret it. oh and the bracket that holds the front mudguard on is the brace. if you want to update the looks the fastest,easiest way is to heat the rear mudguard and make it more straight like a gasser/sherco etc!

any chance of you posting links to where you get the stuff from?

another vote for atf here!

funnily enough i did this to both of mine today!! it works too!

seconded on the 315r, love mine so much i bought another one!! very soft off the bottom,my 65 year old dad loves riding the spare bike and reckons its about perfect for a beginner/clubman itll do absolutely everything that you want it to and are capable of oh and absolutely bulletproof reliability ffs in 2 yrs all ive changed is a thermostat switch!

i did tom, he had 10 in stock before i posted the reply up!

will try it some time this week and update you!

360ml of 10wt oil per leg, rebound adjuster 10 clicks out from full in, preload about 3/5mm below top of fork tube.

i was told by pidcocks that that rebound should be about 5mm down the tube if that makes sense, and rebound should be 10 clicks out from full in, didnt get anything about the rear shock though.

hmmmm well i do have two bikes so i'll try it on one and see how it goes i suppose, i asked because dellorto/montesa/hrc put the little f***** there for a reason and who am i to argue with them!!

did i read somewhere that you can take out the second pilot jet, the one that always blocks, and throw it away? the one thats fitted to the phbl26 carbs on the 315r's??

talk to ian at this site, very helpfull and has diadora straps in stock! http://trialstribulations.net/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=1201

thanks tomgg!! ian at the above shop has 8 of these straps in stock now if anyone is looking for some! sound bloke to deal with as well!!

thats what i thought, thanks for the reply!

thanks just stumbled across this reply, i kinda gave up trying to get one but i'm going to ring them tommorrow on the off chance!!

is there a paint code or a similar red paint in the car world in rattle cans for the red paint on a 315r? or is it a case of run in to halfrauds with a mudguard and pick one thats close??

right problem panic over..... i picked up another 99 315r one owner machine thats as genuine as i could imagine, still on the original tyres and plug!! anyhoo i cleaned the carb and changed the plug fresh gas etc, 1 kick to start after 4 years standing!!! thing is it sounds exactly like mine!! guess that i was just being paranoid about mine thanks for the answers lads!

cant get it over here.... can get octane booster though!

it only taps on acceleration, its a bit vibey although its the same as when i got it 2yrs ago. ill try the sitting test tommorow i presume at tickover/idle?

went out for a little play today and wore my snowboard helmet for a change (couldnt find my trials one) any way the upshot is i can hear the engine more than i would normaly...... anyway when i give it gas it rattles/taps under load ie pulling hard in 3rd it sounds stop end to me so was thing maybe little end? if it is i was wondering what else woulod you do if the top end is off? rings? also how do you find out wether you have a, b,or c barrel?

i'm after losing one of my straps off my boots, now i've looked on evilbay but all thats for sale is boots not spares, so does anyone know where i can get some of the straps from? thanks vince

about an inch side to side in the bore?? 'kinell i'm surprised it started let alone ran!!
