  1. Easy. Easier if you leave the tyre in the sun for a bit to get warm. Should take 5-10 minutes depending on motivation. I use the local service station compressor (not a ****ty digital one), and a tie down or bicycle tube to help seat the bead.
  2. Haven't had a problem with the twin air on my 4rt.
  3. Maybe trials dealers should get cheaper coolant then.
  4. My 1987 Ford had an alloy head on it. That engine had them since 1980 though.
  5. Can be done but the lever is painful even wearing a glove.
  6. Depends how much you want to spend... http://cloud.hsit.eu/FutureCommerce/Home.aspx http://www.vitititaniowtc.com/en/motorcycle-accessories-parts/light-part-ddm-prodotti-per-moto-trial.html http://mitani-ms.shop-pro.jp/?mode=cate&cbid=1326240&csid=0 (Have dealt with all 3; Futures English is best). Essential, I think: alloy case saver frame guards for black frame bin the side stand and the tip sensor (freeee) Things I like for riding: quick domino tube lewisport link plates mitani map
  7. I stick pretty close. Bought an hour meter from ebay for 3.5gbp. Just saw they come in red so might buy a new one I use whatever 10w40 is cheap. Bike seems to be happy and quiet with australian brand Nulon but have used plenty of other brands. I buy these filters from ebay in groups of 10 or 25; whichever works out cheaper.
  8. Good to know that there won't be any issues. Do the interviews say who wins the championship?
  9. You wouldn't consider a decent rider competing for a season to be a test of the motorcycle?
  10. You're both ignoring any contribution he makes to R&D.
  11. Can't find any mention on their site. Fantastic job of 'sports management, marketing and media'.
  12. They're the ones that posted it originally though
  13. Removed due to TV rights. Anyone able to record them from tv and upload somewhere?
  14. Ossas ran ajp masters the same as pretty much every other manufacturer. I slide the masters in and have clutch and brake adjusted to start take up right out. No need for them to come near my fingers, and makes the controls feel sharper to me. Also, run my levers flat. Looks like yours are angled down a lot which makes it easier to roll your wrists forward when landing the front wheel on objects or drop offs.
  15. They're in a bunch of chain shops here (Office Works, Coles, Chemist Warehouse, Woolworths, Dick Smiths, Battery World lol). Around 3 or 4aud. Much cheaper than most 9v here.
  16. Why not use a 12v A23 battery?
  17. Buy lots of fancy 4rt bits. Can only ride one bike at a time.
  18. Take the bars off and it'll fit in the back of a 307 with the seats down.
  19. If you get one then buy spares as you can, before you need. BRB scouring the internet for Vertemati spares...
  20. I say get it because it's good condition, good price, and could be waiting months. Put the slow throttle tube on it and if things go wrong pull in the clutch.
  21. Future ship internationally and the stuff I've bought from them is lovely.
  22. The clutch plates aren't that fancy. Outer friction plates http://www.partzilla.com/parts/detail/honda/HP-22201-KY2-000.html Inner friction plates http://www.partzilla.com/parts/detail/honda/HP-22201-MEL-000.html Steel plates http://www.partzilla.com/parts/detail/honda/HP-22321-MG3-000.html
