  1. Sorry, yes I can adjust the piston, I’ve done that. But it’s the pedal physically hitting the frame that is stopping me from adjusting further. Do all TRS’s have a pedal that’s a lot higher than the peg? Do most people prefer this set-up?? On all my other Trials bikes I’ve been able to get the brake at the same height as the peg.
  2. Is it possible to get a different brake pedal that sits lower? Ideally i want my lever no higher than my peg, currently it bottoms out on the frame. I've filed an amount from the bottom of the lever, but i'm still not as low as i'd like. Has anyone else come across this?
  3. Discovered that heat output is rev's related! If i'm pottering around doing trials type riding the grips are just nice and warm, however, yesterday i did a big long climb up boggy ground. I was in 3rd, wide open for a good 5 maybe 10 mins, had to turn the grips off about 3/4 way through, thought my hands were going to melt. Glad i used the headlight switch, means i can flick on/off with my thumb without having to move hand off the bars.
  4. Had my first "cold" ride today. (It's not actually cold, maybe 8°C) but i did get both hands drenched within the first 20 minutes. Anyway, heated grips are absolutely amazing. I went with this kit from splat shop https://www.splatshop.co.uk/heated-grip-kit.html I binned of the resistor and switch for high/off/low And just wired it into my headlight wiiring instead of high beam. So now i just use the pre-existing switch on the handlebar. I rarely ever ride at night so thats no issue, but it's just the swap of 2 spade connectors to return headlight to normal.
  5. Thanks, so headlight off, and connect it to the horn. Brliiant, easier than i thought!!
  6. I'm fussy with gloves, and have tried the heatpacks to no avail. I get what your saying about clutch/brake finger, thats the 1 that struggles, am hoping a warm bar will be enough to defrost it. Are you being serious, i can really drive it from the horn wiring? I've ridden the 4ride in sub zero temps several times, and never had starting issues. It's used more for technical single track than trials type stuff.
  7. Has anyone fitted heated grips to a 4ride (or a 4RT assuming they are the same) ? Splat shop do some sticky back heated elements that you then slip normal grips over the top, it says they consume 36W, will my 4 ride have enough power to drive them? And where am i best tapping into the wiring loom to take the feed?

    cheers, looks like nothing has changed in a good few years.

    Does anyhone know anything about the 2025 4ride? I have a '16 that i absolutely love, and fancy treating myself to a brand new one. A few UK dealers don't have any 2024's left in stock, and they are waiting for the '25 model. I've no idea what (if anything) has changed.
  10. New filter fitted. Bike is an absolute dream to start now.
  11. Yep, the gauze is housed in a plastic cylinder that clips (or not!) on to the base of the pump. It has simple fallen off. I’m going to mechanically fix it in place, or maybe epoxy bond. I’ll tackle that when my new filter arrives. I’ll also cut the old filter open to see just how much dirt it has caught.
  12. Found this fuel pressure info on another thread. Pressure when starting 0.7 bar (without spark plug) with engine running 2.7 all the time, no matter which rpm But before i go any deeper, my fuel filter seems to have seen better days, and the pre-filter gauze had fallen off and was in bottom of the tank. I've got a new filter on it's way, i shall report back!
  13. Unfortunately i dont have a manual, hence asking if anyone knew the correct pressure. And as far as i know it doesn't have a battery, ao i assume there is some sort of capacitor somehwere? I'm fine with mechanics, but electrickery is not my thing.
  14. Cheers, I’ll have a look at that lot. Is there a procedure for checking fuel pressure? Or just simply T a pressure gauge in wherever I can? And any idea what it should be? Incidentally the bike runs perfect once it’s going.
