Beta 50cc Rear Brake Help
Hi. So what happen's if the lad has to use all 3 control's at the same time,i think that would be more danger trying to go for 3 lever's on the handlebar's at the same time would'nt it. Think the best thing to do is let him find the rear brake in course of time,,once he has a few come off's he'l soon find the rear brake.

Best Value Twinshock?
Did someone ask about spare's for mont's. A guy in t+mx used to advertise spare's for them he does'nt seem to be there anymore,i spoke to him a couple of year's ago seem's to know alot about them.i will have to go through some old copys to find his number. His name was jeff bungay,it might ring a bell with someone on here. i have to find some time to restore this at some stage.

Cold Start - High Revving
Sound's like it's just doing what a choke should do to get the engine started,no real need to keep it on any longer than that,just switch the choke off and let it warm up naturally.

Where Does Trials Go In The Future?
It sound's like you guy's are just bored and unhappy about the sport as it is today. Why wait in hope for the big wig's to change the game when you can breakaway and start your own version of trial's the way you want it. After all thats how a new craze is started,by the people.

Where Does Trials Go In The Future?
not sure why we would want to make trial's more popular it would only mean longer Q's at section's.Think thing's are cool as they are to be honest. not sure why we would want to make trial's more popular it would only mean longer Q's at section's.Think thing's are cool as they are to be honest.

Where Does Trials Go In The Future?
I do wonder if this topic would have even been thought of if our man dougie was on the top probaly not,it would have been what a great win by dougie.what we really need is a another brit rider coming up the rank's to take dougie's place,does anybody know who that will be?. Don't let's forget these rider's are getting paid for risking life and limb. Anybody that know's there history on trial's would know it take's its natural direction on how it will change,so yes it's down to the people that pump there money into the sport on how thing's change. It's a shame there's not more youngster's on here to give there view. It's a great sport what ever level your at enjoy.

What Do You Do When Theres Too Few Observers?
Maybe the club's should add another end of year award,known as the rider that get's heavy with observer's award.who would want to step forward for that one.

What Do You Do When Theres Too Few Observers?
Simple,10 section's 5 observer's,Do 5 section's in the morning stop for lunch have a couple of beer's then do the other 5 section's after lunch sorted. It does shock me however when a rider see's it his right to mouth off the observer's when they drop a foot and then tries to get hard with the observer no need for it.the rider would get a five off me straight away and a big F*** off mate. At the end of day i allway's make a point of going round and thanking the observer for the day,without them we may aswell leave the bike in the garage.
