Clutch Slip Since Oil Change Is It The Right Oil
Here are some pictures of a home made spring compressor: http://www.trialscentral.com/forums/gallery/album/168-bultaco-clutch-spring-compressor/ I had the same problem: the clutch slipped to hard when kickstarting so it would not start. And when it finaly started after a half hour kicking it would ride fine without the clutch slipping. I had mounted the new type clutch plates kit, but I had to put 2mm thick shims under the clutch springs and now it starts fine...

My apologies to the Czech! There was nothing wrong with the electronic ignition. Apparently the clutch slipped a bit when I kickstarted the engine so it did not make enough rpm's to get a decent spark. I made 2mm thick shims to get a bit more pre-tension on the clutch springs, mine has the cups with pins on the springs, not the nuts. Now it starts with no problem She should be ready to take part in the classic 2 day trial in HERGENROTH, Germany

Speedometer Options
I have a Sigma BC 700 on my Montesa that used to be on my BMW road motorcycle as a clock/trip meter. It's over 23 years old and still working fine so they must be good ;-)

2014 Montesa?
Where is the improvement in 2 stroke engines when some brands have been using the same carburetor for over 25 years? It comes down to the same principal: if it ain't broke, don't fix it. I agree the 4RT could benefit from some weight loss, but apart from that there was and there is nothing wrong with it.

2014 Montesa?
The Benelux importer does offer a good service, but as to promoting Montesa he's very silent, not even a mentioning of the new model on his website. I think all his attention goes to his Race Suspension brand TRP...

2014 Montesa?
I like the way it looks. But the standard model has cheaper suspension: a Tech fork and R16V rear suspension, the Race replica has the Showa suspension . And the brakes come from Braktec. We wil have to see how they perform...

Damn again. Now the spark gets weak when the engine is hot. Probably the condensator (which still is mounted next to the points) or the HT coil is damaged... To be continued...

Xr200... 4Ft Up!... Can Go Higher?
I think it would be easyer when you load the suspension as you hit the ledge with your front tire. Search for double blip technique on this forum or on Youtube This is how one rides an enduro bike

Montesa Cota 315R Overheating Help!
I would replace the fan. It isn't worth the risk of damaging your (very fine) engine
