guys

Indeed, not offended at all, that's why I added the I am very proud though, about the success of Jitsie. The owner of Jitsie is a member of our club and his father is the chairman of our club.

Ahum! And what's so funny about that!? By the way I love my Airoh TRR, it's light AND very comfortable. But it ain't cheap. And I've got Smith Fuel MX goggles, that fit nicely over my glasses for the longer rides. As you can see in my profile picture I used to ride with a "road" jet helmet, on which I mounted a trials visor, but in hindsight it was way too hot under it. Concerning the weight reduction: every bit helps and will be noticed i.m.o.

Really? When is he coming to the EU? I'd like to be there in case he needs some support. Or is he a lone ranger?

Are you really promoting an article that suggest that a man, who killed innocent people, children mainly, could be considered a hero? Are you suggesting that we should get out our guns, just because we might have to pay some extra insurance? Are you out of your mind?

Euh... what's that phrase that I'm looking for... right!: nit-picking, that's the one..

Do you guys really believe this legislation will be implemented when it means the end of motorsport in the EU? Really? The UK isn't the only European country with a substantial motorsport industry.

The joy of a good night sleep, for the rest of my life would be nice.

The standard bars (22 mm with the crossbar) on a 315R have 4.5" rise.

It is. Its located between 2 beautiful national parks (De Hoge Veluwe and Veluwezoom)

As the title already suggests; a very pleasant event in the Netherlands. Featuring some interesting mopeds and homemade contraptions. (me followed by my mate Marc @ 2:43. I'm riding an easier class due to health issues.)

This one I've got to borrow.

Please use the search function on the top right. there's been loads written about tyres already.

Love it; great location, fantastic bikes...

Air suspension, like on mountain bikes or as the Fox shock (for Montesa) Very light and adjustable. Ceramic (wheel) bearings (already available) Less wear, better resistant to pollution. Ceramic coating of cylinder / piston: Less cooling necessary = less weight. And they could use the weight savings to strenghten the frames of some bikes.

The perfect system for a trials motorcycle (no battery needed) Yet most brands stick to the archaic carburettor. The reduced emissions alone, should be reason enough to use this kind of system.

One of Belgium's greatest trials riders has sadly passed away yesterday. He was only 56 years old.

Beautiful

A picture of your worn front sprocket would be helpful. I also use 2 chains ( is a more common practice on mountain bikes) so the sprockets last longer. Most chain wear on trials bikes comes from dirt and/or lack of lubrication. A 520 chain can take much more power than our trial bikes can produce. (top riders with their high peak loads excluded maybe) I replace everything when I can almost see a complete tooth, when I pull on the chain at the rear of the rear sprocket. I don't want to run the risk of a broken chain punching a hole in my engine casing. ( fwiw: a worn chain isn't stretched, it means that the pivot pins and bushings are worn, and worn pins break easier) If possible use a 10T front sprocket. Chains don't like to take sharp bends and it reduces wear a little bit.

It doesn't matter much if the foot pegs have a little bit more play in the bracket. Because in either case the most force is transferred through the bolt / pivot which connects both, because there's always play between the bracket and the foot peg.

It would be interesting to know what kind of oil was used that caused such swellings. Or if the oil seal was made out of the wrong kind of rubber.

Some trials bikes have the fuel tank under the seat so...

If all goes to plan, you might see me at a trial in the south of England, or in Jersey next year.
