The plastic end cap? Gasgasuk Did you try google? Heres a choice of 3 different materials http://www.roadandtrials.co.uk/TrialsProExhaustEndCap https://www.splatshop.co.uk/bdi-dpm-gasgas-aluminium-silencer-end-piece-2010-onwards.html https://bvm-moto.co.uk/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=3921 PS. Id stay well away from a used one, good chance its already cracked or half melted

They are no worse or better than the 250 gasgass of the last 10 years. Good bike IMO, they have their problems, but EVERY bike has

Did he use your original tank to make the mould? I won't ask the price, but did it turn out cheaper or at least competitive to an alloy one?

Its as if they didn't try, heck even the stickers have hardly changed!!!

I prefer the standard x11 over the xlite. The latter i find wears too quick, dozes and cracks over longer periods and you end up running them at a higher pressure to avoid punctures that i don't see any grip benefits.

oops, my bad. No experience with this carb im afraid, but the 26 mm dellorto round slide was the standard model carb back then as far as i know

Keihins are extremely sensitive to the air screw! A quarter turn is sometimes enough to turn a bike from burbling at idle to running on. If your keihin isn't responding to idle mixture adjustments, it needs a good clean Putting a 26 PHBL dellorto is basically turning it into the standard non cabestany model, so it will run fine, and ultimately less fussy. Will a smaller dellorto sort your problems at the low end, possibly....

Have a look here, a poster says he couldn't get an IRC to stay on his ty rim

Ive yet to have a tubeless x11 come off my older tube type alloy rims, mainly akronts though

I don't like your wife ?

Absolutely not!!!! Maybe for the youths, but id rather have the £5 it cost for some fake chromed plastic trophy than the actual trophy itself! Those things aren't even recyclable, straight to land fill in my house.

The problem is some of the manufacturers like michelin, renthal, tech, braktec already pretty much have a monopoly in trials, plus to someone like michelin trials is probably <1% I wish redbull would have got more involved than they do and have done previously. Trials you would think would fit their remit, but other than sponsoring select riders (which i know is more their style across all sports) as far as i know they've never really committed beyond the odd area trial As for dealers, they seem to be more interested in sponsoring riders than events

Thats just not true, I've mx forks over 40 year old with no chips. Chrome has been and still is the industry standard +1 from me for philipots although not sure they do the coating you are looking

My bad, it sounded like you were rating his ability

Kind of, that's the way the rules were for a few years in the early 2000s, a 1 for any kind of stop, feet up or down. You're correct, but observers were more confident in giving a 1 for a stop because it was less severe, and riders argued less because a 1 didn't ruin their chances so much.

Its still a trials bike and he's still a world level rider. He would kick most peoples ass on it, including bruands!

Thats not his hand, its a spectators hand

I have to say, when i first heard about the rule change i was excited, and i thought it was a step in the right direction (even though i thought going back to a dab for a stop would have been better than a 5 for a stop). I believe he had the best intentions, it just didn't have the right execution

The problem with that is if you open sections up to allow them to be ridden no stop, the difficulty more than not has to be provided by the rock steps, which would exacerbate the problem that's already there of it being too dangerous for the rider outside the top 10 Which is ironic because no stop was supposed to bring the level down, but when you have these open sections with larger run ups the level actually goes up

You need to retake that Olevel biology test, or sack your teacher! Plants DO breathe CO2, they even have mouths/pores, called stomata, taken from the greek for MOUTH 'stoma'. They are all over the surface of leaves. So get your facts right before correcting other people. As for your views on global warming, I'm not even going to try and remove your head from the sand its buried in.

You cant really call Thierry Michaud an idiot. But i agree, you would think someone who has masses of experience would take the sport in the right direction, not the wrong one

Buckled plates

But you still have a dirty sweaty helmet. Same reason we don't wash our drawers in alcohol ?

Ive washed my own jitsie liner dozens of times and its still in good condition. Unless you are dousing and rinsing it out with the alcohol you aren't actually cleaning, just masking bad smells.

That helmet has a removable liner. I can't think of any reason why you would prefer to do this than remove the liner and machine wash it...
