That's what i already have, was looking for something that lasts a bit longer

Well i've been thinking about changing to Montesa lately, and specificaly a 315. Just a few questions though first if you don't mind? Were there any significant changes made to the 315 in the years it was produced/ And, seen as they are getting on a bit, are there any good mods/improvements or upgrades that you would recomend? Thanks

Well at least I got a reply

Is it possible to get pastic frame protectors for a 2003 bike. The ones that come up quite a way. i'm finding them for 2006 bikes onwards but not for the earlier ones. If they are available, where from?

Thought so never heard of you You sorted your clutch on the gasser yet?

You wouldn't hapen to race cars by any chance would you

I have a 2003 290, running rough is probably a bit of an exageration but it doesn't run buttery smooth. The revs don't really come down to quickly either and it surges a little. I have read this thread http://www.trialscentral.com/forums/topic/35972-sherco-290-09-revs-falling-slowly/ and given the carb a good clean and a new air filter.The ignition has also been retarded 4mm. Anyone have any suggestions, what could cause this. it's not to much of a problem, but i would rather it wasn't there

Please correct me if i'm wrong but wouldn't it be to much bike for a complete novice?

but were the stickers looking good

When buying a used dirt bike I always assume I am going to have to change the wheel bearings, fork seals, pads and chain and sprokets. it's just something I normaly have to do. must be very annoying though if someone claims these parts are like new

I have been looking around for a rear fender and decal set for my 2003 290. Is it only genuine parts that are out there, or are ther cheaper pattern parts available. Emphasis on the word cheaper

Have you looked at the Yamaha Tricker. i know of a couple of guys who have done a large wheel conversion on them and are very impressed with the result. Good for trail riding and ldt's Rieju also do a clone called the tango i believe which is a bit cheaper Alternatively what about a Gas Gas Pampera?

i just bought some from Spatshop the were

Couple of rides in and i'm loving the bike. being new to trials though, it has taught me several things 1. I have no bike skills whatsoever 2. I have no balance whatsoever 3. when the throttle jams open and you end up a tree, it's the scariest thing ever to happen to you on a motorcycle and it hurts a lot What I mean to say is i'm loving it so far

Hello

Just had a cylinder done at langcorts

Fun

Can't I get nipples out of a non corrosive material? Brass or stainless steel

With a title like that it could have gone anywhere. I just found out there is a band of that name Anyway, you rekon just do them 1 at a time and everything will be o.k

My front wheel has nipples that have gone rusty. is it possible to change all of them myself or should i go to a wheelbuilder?

The shorter plugs have ecm after the numbers instead of es. Unfortunately i'm not sure if you can get them? well i can't find one anyway. You can get 7 and 8's but not 5's it seems

I think there is a little confusion here. The plug is fine in the thread and there is nothing wrong with it apart from acess being a little tight. I know on some dirt bikes it is possible to get the same plug, but with a shorter porcelain section. It just makes things a little easier thats all. just wondering if these plugs were available for the Sherco? On my KTM these were used and they take a regular cap

Is it possible to get a short spark plug for a 2003 290? The plug currently in there is very difficult to remove, due to it's length

Yes I have one now, but i'm not going to stop nagging you. It's all your fault anyway. tempting me with your strange ways about going slow
