At 16.5 stone, I reckon a 200 is a bare minimum cc

I went down memory lane, 8-10 years ago with a TLR & Majesty and they weren't as good as we THOUGHT they were in the 1980's... perhaps I shouldn't bother again

I have the stock Repsol alloy hangers on mine, because I think they'll be weaker/softer than the plain steel ones - hopefully (touches wood)

That's a good point Ross I had a proper original Godden Majesty 200 until about 8 years ago & always favoured the modern bikes as the brakes & chassis/suspension was crap in comparison & had a TLR200 as well I guess we forget how far modern bikes have come on, in 30 years

Frame? Or just the steel hanger plate?

I saw that 315 - but decided against another as I'd had 2 & preferred the 4RT to the 315 Got a weird hankering for a TYZ though

I'm fancying another bike, alongside the 4RT Can decide between Twinshock Yam or TLR or an Aircooled Mono Pinkie or RTL? I think the Mono may be more rewarding Prices seem all over the place though

I wouldn't before & now I certainly wouldn't buy an Ossa

I agree, considering how many TY Monos were sold in the 1980's and 90's, some bits like plastics/exhausts/kickstarts are officially dscontinued from Yamaha, so you have to scour old stock or used spares

Scarborough Club have the best facilities

Ashes to ashes.....................a brief revitalisation and then confined to history again

KTM also use KOKUSAN

Take them both to Butser Lime Works at the moment, when it's wet That'll sort 'em out

You should have gone the Mitani route as their stuff fits spot on, I have zero trouble with the tank cover & swing arm/air box/fork covers (2007 Repsol) - the rest is genuine Honda carbon on mine The only abs plastic on mine are the frame guards & I agree with all you say - I had to trim at the lower hanger area & use extra zip ties - but they're sacrificial & mine are beat up You pay your money & take your choice

No No No I use a 4RT for Trials & either a DR350Se or XR 400R for trailriding In the UK there are not enough technical trails for a 4Ride, except maybe Devon

Is that right - I thought the FIM minimum weight is 65kg, so why produce a bike lower than 60kg

My bike has genuine carbon everything Fork covers Silencer cover Air box cover Swing arm covers Tank cover Exhaust header cover Front fork brace Clutch cover Front sprocket guide It looks mint & even after 8 years use it's like new underneath Other good additions are Plastic frame guards Rear plastic under mudguard cover - to keep the air box clean Case saver HD bash plate Decent pegs & hangers

I heard the first 2014 260 plain 4RT's had issues with fork seals after only a few hours use Not heard much lately

After riding a BMW 1100 GS - the 300RR would be a paperweight Have you finished with RTW riding ?

What's a splatter ?

Dream debut on TRS He did well, very well

Fitting a HD chain will sap power Just buy a decent quality normal chain of a genuine brand like DID,from a recognised retailer Beware of fakes from China

TLR don't justify their prices - can't see why people buy 'em now, because nobody did in 1984-87

What about 4strokes? They have moved further than most of the 2strokes
