Hi all,just tried a search for any info on replacing the headstock bearings on my 98 315r,just found bearing numbers,so if anyone can point me in the right direction if this topics been covered already thanks,if not ive changed bearings before on road bikes,but if anyone knows some good advice or ways of doing it on the montesa id be very gratefull. Thanks very much. Regards Andy

Thanks Wherry,i think you may be right about needing a seal kit. Thats why i couldnt back bleed it then(ball bearing) Theres a few bits i need from sandifords so ill add that to the list. Thanks again regards Andy.

Front brakes,im having a real prob bleeding them up,when i got the bike there was a loose banjo and no front brake, easy i thought add brake fluid ,bleed, voila front brake,. no hardest bleeding job ive come across in 25 years. Cheers Again Andy.

Thanks very much,not a lot of differences over the years then. Cheers again. Regards Andy.

Must be a popular first bike,ive just bought a similar one,searched the forums for a manual,pretty difficult to find,is there much difference between a 98 and 2002 model? Sorry to hijack the thread but i guess relevant to new owners,also the filler cap below the carb/near the clutch slave cylinder, is this the filler for the gearbox? Ive learnt loads from reading previous threads,so thanks for all the help and info. Regards Andy.

Cheers Bo,but again it just came upnot on our database. Ill give them a ring its only

Thanks pete,but all i got was a warning saying it wasnt insured. Will head to the post office in the morning. Regards Andy.

Thanks very much guys,expensive for a bit of paper but it seems straight forward. Cheers again regards Andy.

Hi all,new to trials,should have looked on here before i bought a trials bike,but ive just bought one and there is a reg plate with it but the lad i bought it from didnt have a V5,so i wondered what the best/easiest way to obtain one would be. Ive dealt with the DVLA before so i know nothings easy for them,but heres hoping,thanks for your time. Regards Andy.

Hi all,im English but moved to France a couple of years ago,ive just bought a honda montesa 315r to start trials on over here,just got to find a club now.
