Glenn, It does have some nice bottum end.Geared just right for my ridding.I can see it being a 4th gear hill climber with speed.I am not a big guy so it is going to be afun summer. JR

Just got myself a new 2012 Beta 300 was wondering what kind of tranny oil is best for these machines?Also any other things to keep a eeye on as far as maintenace other then the normal stuff. Have only ridden about 1 hour so far but seems to be jetted right.Hope to get some more time on it this weekend. Thanks JR :icon_salut:

Very sad news indeed.Was one of my favorite all time world riders!Rest in peace Diego.

Got a e mail from my minder friend in spain on xmas and he had said Fejardo was leaving Ossa for the Beta team again.How things turn around!

Want to know his secret,breakfast every morning at the waffle house with them there grits.I busted his chops every morning and during the day asked how those grits where keeping him going. the old montesa was good bug control to follow on loop trail.What fun!JR

Way to go PAT We all new you could it!!! Hey Norm you must be a proud Dad <JR

Cables and all run to the right between top and bottum triple clamps and over top of the radiator,along frame tube to engine.then cable ty all but I do not tie the trottle cable.Have had a clutch line on boys bike get pinched once in a crash.If your careful you can ty them up away from the pinch point.

Just a reminder for all upstate new york riders. 3D club event sunday April 25,Munnsville N.Y..Start time 11 am.Follow orange loop markers from four corners in Munnsville village.Hope to see a good turn out.JR

Hey Biff where you been hiding under a rock?What kind of hills do you have out there for boarding? We picked up 5 feet on the catskills mountains last week.Think Spring JR

I have ridden a few gate trials of different variations.They are fun and can be very challenging.Some are run as gates are of the same value others where gates are for more points. If sections are set up proper you could have riders trying things more difficult then they normally would ride.I can see using it to make hard sections that only the best riders would try the hardest route and risking a failure, and they would get no points for there attempt.The scoring can get complicated for the observer. I do prefer normal trials but am open to other type rides. Hello Martin hope all is good with you.JR

I for one am saving my money for this one.To bad the importer for the usa is not where it was for the original Ossa's.Yankee motors 60 miles up the highway from me.Oh the good old days.

Every year we go thru this same thing.No matter what location or calender they follow you can never please everybody.The reginal thing has been discussed before.And unless you want to remortgage your house it can cost a small fortune to ride all the nationals.Plus have a job you can leave for a month or two.So we all do what we can and move on.JR

Pretty good turn out sunday.Sections good and ridable for all even with all the rain that we had the days before.Here are a few pictures that I took.They are not very good.There where many people taking pics so will post when I get them. Have a good winter,JR http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj31/jr...os/100_0471.jpg http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj31/jr...os/100_0462.jpg http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj31/jr...os/100_0464.jpg http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj31/jr...os/100_0463.jpg http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj31/jr...os/100_0465.jpg http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj31/jr...os/100_0466.jpg http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj31/jr...os/100_0467.jpg http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj31/jr...os/100_0470.jpg
