  1. Never had any problems before with my 2011 evo or rev3 fit god knows how many rear tyres and always used Dunlops after Michelin on new bikes wear out as they stay on rim when punctured. Temp of rim or tyre as never been a problem. And living in Silsden I have a constant supply of Dunlops!!

  2. Bike came new with a Michelin no problems with tyre. 2nd tyre Dunlop was ok and was swapped round to wear both edges then finished a trial with it flat so was replaced as I thought it was punctured.3rd tyre new Dunlop went flat doing bemrose and came off rim and damaged valve inside rim and had to ride it off moors.just replaced with a new Dunlop d803gp and new valve checked rim no damage or mark's.rode Cleveland national and managed to do 20 sections then noticed it was flat and it pumped up ok rode rest of trial and was flat at last section! Blew it up to 10psi last night and just checked now and it's still at 10psi!

  3. Problem with fuel hose is that it goes forward between cyl head and lower side of frame through cyl support bracket then loops back on its self down to carb! It seems to kink here and its pretty near cyl! looking at 2015 parts diagram and that seems to have a different tap!

  4. Just split cases on a 125cc txt to change mains. While cleaning crank i have found 4 cork plugs in crank holes which where in a bit of a state! Whats the idea behind these and will there be any ill efect without them?

  5. Cant knock my local dealer who have been very helpfull and are trying there best to sort me a new jacket! But jitsie dont seem to be going out of there way to help anyone! I bet it would be different if i was one of there sponsored riders not joe public advertising there brand!

  6. Well finally I had I reply from jitsie who told me to contact

    my dealer where my jacket was bought! So I contacted them and returned jacket they where happy to replace but out of stock they made contact with jitsie uk suppliers they had none? So contacted jitsie themselves they have no jackets neither? Wtf! My dealer rings me and explains all this and is happy to replace with another brand I said no jitsie can sort another out as I like jacket. I find all this a bit of a joke

  7. Anyone else think trials gear quality is poor! Bought new 2 pairs of hebo gloves in janauary they fell in bits within a couple of months bought the new trial gear pants had to be restiched shirt as faded and looking tired gloves they also have fallen apart new jitsie jacket I got in march zip as given up! I find that it is over priced and poor the only positive I have is that my gaerne boots have lasted about 6 years!

  8. As title says can you ride too many trials and have not enough practice rides! I feel that just recently my results have not been good and i have seemed to be dropping down the results! Cant seem to put my finger on where im going wrong just losing silly marks for slack dabs! I have tryed taking my time at sections having a good walk through picking my line watching other riders! stopped the beer the night before trial even got out on mountain bike and got my self in better shape! Is it im riding trials every weekend and not getting out and practising? Any ideas folks.
