    Which Bike

    Dont know if you are sorted yet, but i got one of the mad phase 1.3 s from tarty bikes for 300 quid and am really pleased with it .The lads were really helpfull. I cant ride it for toffie but its great fun only a mechanical front disc but it works fine and you can allways upgrade.

    08 3.2 Opinions

    Have they really cured the starting issues? I have owned one of the scorpa, sherco, and finally the monty 4 bangers The real issue with the sherco was hot start,the motor was fine,probably better than the monty from a fourstroke angle,but it would never start reliably. The monts allways start that is why they are more poppular

    Flat Tank

    Hi all have been out side in a shed at work for a year and not had a computer port Is anyone manufacturing a reasonably priced flat tank for the 4rt yet ? i would love one but they are so much money. I still have my 06 and touch wood it has been trouble free so am keeping for a bit longer,but would love to upgrade the tank.
  8. R2 man you are getting old,thats the sort of thing my old man used to say you could allways marshall ? then it would be free and you get free waterproofs and a goody bag

    World Champ

    What do you think gas gas will say now the 4rt is the worlds best trials bike there will be loads of people saying raga could of retained his champs if the final round had not been cancelled i feel sorry for bou he has been short changed,the spark has been taken out of his win, When he wins again for the next few years lets hope there will be no contraversy

    Any News ?

    Hello chaps, If the trials bikes are as good build quality as my little cab then we will be in for a good trialer. even the paint has stayed on the frame, never mind what dabster says ,he recond a fourstroke would never win the world champs,
  13. have not been on this site for a while hello everyone having owned most of the modern four strokes for my money the monty is the only opton if you actually want to trial on it. all of the other bikes still have issues , the monty is not the most four stroky (invented word i know) but it starts every time. belive me a bike that lets you down a few times soon becomes annoying to say the least.

    4rt 2007

    My bike is an 06,and we have had this topic before,alot of you two stroke boys still feel the need to clear out your bikes,two strokes oil up when on tickover for a long time and some need a blast to clean out, the monty on the other hand allways runs clean,just try to get out of the habbit. some of the younguns down here rev the nuts off there bikes from cold 2 and 4 stroke,all engines need a warm up,the fourstrokes especialy,as seen by the clouds of smoke they billow when abused.
  20. Indoors toni outdoors dougie as long as doug wins his 100th world round i will be happy then let the kids take over,but never write off the old yorkie bugger.

    Beta 4-stroke

    all this talk of the patter of tiny valves gets me all broody, i would love a new baby but the wife says she is barron,and if i get one off someone else she will leave me have to stick with the monty for a couple of years,never mind,my mate picks his up tommorow so i can be its godfather.
  22. HERE THEY COME. i said all along when a few of the hot kiddies see the light and go over to the dark side things would change could this be the end of ragas run of wins???? fugi won more out door rounds than him last year,THE END IS NIGH, THE KING IS DEAD LONG LIVE THE KING..

    Beta 4-stroke

    another point worth a mention the lovelly exaust you talk about on the scorpa is impossible to re pack ,so after a year its knackered,out comes the welder. i think the beta is the cheapest of the bunch at the momment,so the saving on continuous,and normally not esential developement is passed back to the customer,

    Beta 4-stroke

    scorpa 4 sorry what we ment was better quality than other euro brands the monty and scorpa are jap based,nuf said. however g,g and sherc, are a bit flimsy to say the least.
  25. I have not looked but there are usually a few on the classified page???
