  2. Dabster is away on holidays so don't expect a response until the new year. AFAIK the Yam hub is Ex a TY mono, the idea is to get a positive feel brake on the right hand side of the bike.

    Pro Gear Oil

    I've used motul oil in all 4 Pros I've had. No clutch slip on any of them. Only problem I've ever had are a set of seals going when I left my 03 to stand for a month.
  4. 04 bike with 05 plastics? the 04 had Ducati
  5. mmmmmmmmmmm.......but he did get one of the first 20 in the country. Got your bike then?
  6. My 05 280 hasn't got Ducati ignition.
  7. I've had chance to ride one today, the bike belongs to Bruce Storr AKA Copley Decor who are Sandifords Sponsor. We were out practicing at the venue where we run the Crackpot Trial, so the sections were real. All I can say is WOW. If you're in the que with your money down the wait will be worthwhile. Suspension is fantastic it just glides up things. It takes a bit of getting the hang of but once you learn to leave the clutch alone & just wind it on & off it's great. It sort of feels a bit slow to come in & then is very strong but again I'd say this is part of the learning curve & also the lack of noise it makes. I realy can't see the noise being an issue, when you're on it there's less noise than a 2 stroke. The clutch is probably not how I would like, it seems very on or off almost switch like. I found that when I made an mess of something it was difficult to get out of trouble like I can on my Gasser, again this maybe something that needs practice. The only problem I noticed was the footrests, they seem to be made of crap, first ride up the beck Bruce virtually managed to bend one double, he simply belted it on a rock in passing. While the Gasser isn't up for sale yet I'll be taking a fair bit of notice as whether people can break anything on them. If I'm lucky enough to get a ride round Fort William next May I'd quite like to do it on a Mont.

    Rev & Go 50

    I've bought one of these bikes & it has no handbook. Can someone tell me how much & what type of oil to put in the gearbox?
  9. That wise old sage Dabster, would he lie to you?
  10. I would have thought that there are only 1 or 2 production runs of Montesa trials bikes each year. The rest of the time I guess they assemble Honda road bikes etc.

    I also was talking to him again at the Kings Head on the night before the Scott whilst I was in the company of HL, Cam, Andy & Kinell. So I'm sure as **** it ain't me.
  13. Sorry to go 'off topic' again Munch, do have you and Dabster got something going on?? fair play dude. your always there to defend the chap reminds me a bit of this daring duo: It's called having a mate, perhaps you don't understand this concept?
  14. You ARE still talking about the 4T Mont...........Nigel?
  15. Her older brother Paul is also profoundly deaf, he's decent on a bike as well.
  16. It's Mal (Mel?) Bird, I think that's what he's called, he seems to pop up at many Trials events & usually observes.
  17. It's not a stream! It's basically a track where rocks have slid off the hillsides over the years & made quite a steady early section. It just shows how much water there was about.
  18. Well............... He can always say his petrol did more of the course than him.
  19. It went for well over a ton, in total the auction raised in excess of
  20. What the hell have you taken it to bits for? Send it back to who you bought it off, it's their problem not yours.
