To be fair mate your not that good at it or this post would not be on here. I think the DVLA guy was right to question the fact that the insurance was not correct for the bike in the first place.
Maybe it's not totally a DVLA issue but Bennett's insurance being not up to scratch for trials bikes!
MSM does include road work between sections within competition so you don't have to spend that extra
Does anyone know who stocks and sales 'Boot Buddy' in the UK or by mail order?
I have seen a few guys with them and now want a pair. It looks like a elasticated cover that
goes over the boot top and riding trousers to stop all the mud and crap going down your boots.
The ones I've seen have been red with Boot Buddy UK * USA in white lettering. I asked the guys who had them and they got them at a show but need to know a supplier.
Did try Goggling it but to no avail.. Any help much appriciated.
It must be the case that if the trial is marked out for Pre65 / twin shock bikes with no stop rules correctly then the right calibre of people will ride the trial no matter what bike they are on. Does it make any difference if an over 50 rider on a mono rides the same section as they will be in another class to the twin shock or Pre65? If it
Nothing to do with the band as the 4 i know about all have 2011 Gas Gas's on DID rims. They only go flat when riding sections or between sections. They stay up all week if just sat in the garage or a old bath...
Your the 4th guy i know with the same problem.
3 guys i ride with have changed to Mich lites because of the same problem. The other is still trying to find out the problem and has even had it changed by the supplier and it still goes down. These are all on DID rims so nothing to do with rim tapes.
It seems that they go flat after a steep or hard hit. They are rubbish on rocks as easy to pop of the rim. Great in mud thou.
Any one else having problems with them ?
You only need to look at Golden Valley and Bath Classic clubs results on the internet in the south west and see that they both have a class for over 50's on Mono bikes and from riding over 50 on a Gas Gas I've never had a problem.
One reason is not all older guys a strong enough to handle big old Pre 65's or have the time and money to look after them these days but enjoy riding with guys from the same generation.
Look how much a good pre 65 bike costs these days. Some are more than double a good second hand mono....
For God's sake,If it's going to stop a club folding with lack of entries then go for it and except the mono's as more will moan if your club folds !!!!!!!!

I wish Gas Gas would do the same with kick start quadrent gears. They break all the time and even if ones break after a few months they won't replace it. Same part number for years and still not fixed it let alone get warranty on it.
Your right, Top marks to Beta and the Lampkins. Wish Mr Shirt & co would note as they warranty record as Gas Gas is like
