  1. No I dont know who he is. If you think he could help, could you please let me know how I can contact him. Thanks.
  2. Glad to hear it Doug! Must admit, I was mostly worried by the lack of seat when I bought it for trail riding, but the only time I found I missed it was when trying to take a very sharp fast turn- mx style with the leg out. I didnt carry extra fuel, that's one advantage of riding with enduros. There gonna have plenny left for you if you do run out Truth is though, when you ride the tighter stuff you dont go through near as much as they do cos there reving so damn much! Robee, those down hill mountain bikes dont break with all the abuse they give em and they have even less susspension travel than the fxbikes. Dont forget it is already 25kg lighter! I can't see it folding, especially the titanium. I think the modern trials bike is still too heavy and over engineered, take a good look at your swing arm. Like the mx bikes, they are built for the very extreme of abuse which probably less than 1 percent of owners can dish out.
  3. Yeah, but fire roads are boring anyway, gimme the thicker stuff anyday. Soon as you get off the two wheel roads, there is always a few fallen trees across your path. Thats when its great to be riding my trials bike with my enduro riding buddies! ...and they laughed when i said i was buying a trials bike.
  4. Decided to try a trials bike to use for trail riding after selling many conventional trail/mx bikes. I was sick of wrestling bulky over-engineered bikes in the tight woods that i like to ride. After one ride, im hooked. I cant understand why more people havn't caught on. Have to up the tyer pressure to save the rims with trials tyers, at the cost of traction. Might be better off with nobbies in the forrests, No?
  5. Hi all, I have a '01 sherco 290 that i use for trail riding and i would like to fit a more powerfull headlight. I have emailed sherco.com and asked them how much current can safely be drawn from the magneto, but have had no replies. I have attached a 20watt halogen 12volt globe directly to the standard headlight connector and it is quite brite. By looking at the stator wiring i believe it could take another 20watt globe but i would like to know first. Can anyone tell me who else i might ask? Thanks.
