guys

Nice job!

To give you an idea:

On this site: http://montesa4rt.nl/ Klick on "documentatie", followd by "handleidingen" and then on "2005 Cota 4RT" to download the PDF file. After that go to page 5-15

I am going. Yes, that's the way to do it I think. From what I understand, you only need a medical if you have no licence. I have no licence but I ticked the box for a one event licence (= €65) so I have to have a medical certificate that allows me to do motorsports.

Hi Blacky I'm not sure but as far as I can tell from the entry form, a ACU licence is enough. Foreigners don't have to pay in advance, we pay on the day of sign in at the event.

The subscriptions are open: http://enduro.pagesperso-orange.fr/trial/ I've sent my entry form for the 4day trial in La Creuse to the organisers...

Very cool indeed

I understand. I'd rather heare the engine.

Montesa's don't have a drain bolt on the crank case. But always close the petcock when you're not riding. (I made a small extension on it from a steel wire to make it easier to open) When I transported my 315R on the trailer, with the petcock open, it also wouldn't start because it was flooded.

Get comfortable first, it lasts 29 minutes

When you're searching for bearings don't forget that some needle bearings have 1 or 2 small seals built in them. Like this one:

You can have as much fun on a "heavy" 4-stroke as on a "light" 2-stroke. Montesa 4RT and Beta Rev4 are both good bikes. just try a few bikes if you have the opportunity.

+1 Came across this 2 times and everytime ripping the throttle cable out did the trick

When the engine revvs out because the outher throttle cable is out of it's seat at the carb (you can't stop the engine with the kill-switch in this case, don't know if the lanyard type work in this case), you can get the revvs down by pulling out the throttle cable out of the throttle housing on the handle bar. But you've got to be quick. I think that when alu plated cylinders are damaged, they always have to be re-plated. I hope you and your Monty feel better soon.

I would only use the soapy water to mount the rim strip. The guy in the film says the rim strip is made from a very sticky kind of rubber and amor all has the opposite effect. They make the rim strip from sticky rubber for a reason. To keep it well in it's place after the soapy water has evaporated I presume. But I could be wrong...

As copemech said: the double blip technique is very useful to get up obstacles.

Brrrrr, seems to be cold out there. Respect.

Correct. This is what I found on the www: "silicone sealants release acetic acid (which smells a little like vinegar) as they cure" (They will cure faster but do not stick very well compared to Neutral cure types Neutral (meaning neutral alcoxy) silicone sealants release alcohol as they cure, and has almost no smell, but take about 3 times longer to set up than acetic curing sealants. The do have overall a higher "grip" than Acetic types)

Very nice pictures, really sharp and all that stuff. One can recognise everybody very well. But I would also take some pictures more to the side, or even from the back, and a bit further away, so you can have a better idea off the obstacles they are attacking. I'm not a great photographer myself, just giving my opinion

. I've got these: Fox PolarPaw, warm enough and not to thick. Bought them in a MX shop.

Looks nice, have fun with it!

Sorry, I didn't know you and your Beta where so sensitive.

Make sure it's suited for wet clutches.

I hope you mean 14°F and not °C. And what kind of High tuned sensitive machine do you ride? Adjusting your fuel mixture because it's a bit chilly? Warm up the engine sufficient before you start making donuts in the snow. When you ride and treat your bike sensible in the cold snow, there's nothing silly about it.
