How do you know? Honda sell plenty of Trials bikes

What does one think....
It is, but they do 6 lap - 66 section Trials Value for money in Yorkshire at £13-£15 per event

If they made a full Yamaha, I would buy one

What does one think....
Pickering DMC Trials are still six laps of 11 sections generally....................it's an endurance feat, especially when the flags are pulled at 2.30pm and start time is 11am !!

4rt oil change
Going back to my theory about maybe we change the oil & especially too often (as a Clubman rider) - just done a Coast to Coast trail ride (on a XR 400 I may add) There was a chap on a 4Ride and he's done 478 miles over 2 days and ridden at speeds of up to 60 mph He didn't change the oil and/or filter in those 478 miles and I guess the motor was working a lot harder than 3x12 sections at a Club trial with a Clubman pootlng around Made me think we over service them perhaps

4rt oil change
Changing the oil filter is a right PITA On an older well used bike, I wonder how critical it is (new bike and engine, with assembly swarf I get) to change the oil filter Every time mine has come out it looks fine and nothing in it, plus the oil is clean So, as Clubman trials is pretty low stress, are we 'over servicing the oil filter' Recently I only change it every 3rd oil change (change oil 500ml every 4 uses - trial or practice) What's the concensus?

Wheel bearings.
I favour SS food grade bearings too

4RT 4-Ride... Rad Fan - How Busy?
They all seem to do it, run with the fan most of the time, even riding between sections with max air flow Don't worry, only worry if she boils?
