At last a u turn in our sport, GO ON Belgium. This might put a stop to the top flight guys racing each other over logs and making a turn with there bloomin' FEET DOWN. Hope this runs through the sport through-out the world...
Should the vent pipe be pointing up or down or does this not matter. I noticed on the right side of the carb (while sitting on the bike) There is a breather / vent pipe to the right of the carb facing down ??
Just spotted some fuel on my sumpguard, cleaned it off and took the bike out. Came back after about five minns and let the bike tick over, turned it off and a small damp patch again...
while taking the carb off I spotted the jubille clip, the one on the reed side was loose, After renewing it and putting it back together and also checking the rest of the carb. fired the bike up, spot on and give it a test ride, still have a small damp fuel patch.
Could this just be the overflow or is this a commen problem whith the keilin carb .
My advise would be Go for it, Its a fantastic sport, good crack & very addictive...
There are loads of local trials, and some local venues to practice.
Iam in the process of buying a new bike its that addictive .
I started trials two years ago and had never road a bike in my life...It was a bit dawnting turning up at the trial with approx. 50 bikes there but got a warm welcome and looked after.
I wish I had started younger . There is trials on every week just about.
Just joined the site and finding my way round it, After going down the motorsport route of rallying for the past 20 years (ESCORT MK2) decided to take up trials
And luv it to bits...not road a motorbike EVER...bought a sherco 250 and nearly killed myself at rogerly quarry last year. sold that and bought a GasGas pro . stripped the bike and built it back up from scratch...NEW everything and riding it nice now.
Still on the easy course at the moment and getting better after each trial, and learning the sport.
