  1. Merry Christmas Trialsters & keep it 'feet up' in 2015
  2. FI is the future I'd always opt for it, given the choice...........not only does it run better, but in general fuel consumption is less too Carbs are old hat, with too many variables
  3. True story..................I'm a bit shocked in reality
  4. I picked this up on another Forum, to transport your Trials bike to events Would it be ok?
  5. I like my Sidis, will have a look at the Rainers though
  6. Blimey you're right Classic from a non PC age 'Med ladies' very funny
  7. Looks like Dabill's onboard and ready to ride for 2015 Good luck to him and the new bike
  8. Doesn't sound good, get it out quick before the water allows anything to rust internally Flush through at least twice with cheap oil Have you got a spark? If you have got a spark.......... check the fuel system, has the fuel tank also got water in it? If so, the water will sit at the bottom of the tank and the fuel on top, thus preventing fuel getting out as pure fuel You should have checked it last weekend, water sat in engine for a week.............. isn't good
  9. It's a Honda, speaks volumes
  10. Did the engine take in any water? Have you checked the colour of the oil? Try a new plug

    Flipping eck, that is awesome
  12. Ha, you won't remember me, I live up north now You used to have a bike shop in Teignmouth - as a schoolboy trialler I had a Honda TL150 HiBoy from you in the late 1970's
  13. I bet Michael Brown has sleepless nights, after reading Dadof2's comments about the bike he has ridden for the past few years & more importantly signed to ride again for the future Does Dadof2 know something Brownie doesn't?
  14. That's a fairly far reaching and negative statement................i'm surprised you took the time to compile it I have no personal experience of GasGas, but I see plenty of them at events, together with Beta and Sherco - so as a straw poll, then they must ride well and hold up ok as you see some pretty old ones at Trials most weeks As others have said, I reckon most owners seem reasonably happy with the GasGas bikes, as they keep on riding and buying them Judging on what you see - I reckon GasGas and Beta sell most bikes bought in the UK, so sales speak for themselves
  15. True, but no reason why other manufacturers can't achieve similar expertise
  16. I thought Montesa did a header with a sensor in it, everybody junks it for a Mitani though My BMW GSA has sensors for the EFI & BMW have been using EFI on bikes since 1994 with very few problems They can adjust them for all petrol fuel types EFI on bikes isn't new & is well understood
  17. Even more disappointing with the latest turn of events
  18. 2 trail bike's stolen in nearby Keighley yesterday morning - during daylight Must be a spate going on - keep your eyes peeled & bikes safe & out of sight
  19. You're right What does the 2014 Repsol do better than my 2007 Repsol Apart from 10cc's
  20. None taken £5k bottom £5.5k top I'd pay for a new 2015 one if a 2014 one was over £5.5k
  21. He only asked..................... He's going to advertise it for £5400 and he'll probably do a deal at £5000-£5200 in reality See................I wasn't far out, was I
