17 Gasgas Airbox
I've been riding my '17 GG in the mud all fall and only have some small spatters of mud in my airbox.

I'm Back, And New Bike
The Durty Dabbers Trials Club is only a little over 2 hours from you. A lot more D6 trials action north and east of you. Miller Ranch Trials Series in Corning, is 3.5 hours away and a lot of D4 Trials, Niagara Trials Riders, Empire Trials Club events not much further.

Which 125?
I have a '17 Gas Gas 125 and it's been a great bike for me as an older novice. Good power, especially the low end, suspension works very nicely, stable at speed and turns well.... Very confidence inspiring! Great package!

New Alpinestars Tech T, Faulty
Mine is on both boots, but only on the white upper, not the foot portion. I haven't ridden in real wet, but they have gotten damp in wet grass and mud.

New Alpinestars Tech T, Faulty
I have the same colorway and my white on the side of the boots is similar looking. I've ridden at least 20 hours in them and they seem to be holding up fine. I figured the side was cut from a less than perfect hide and it's more cosmetic than anything. I love these boots compared to my Gaerne boots, I'm just going to keep wearing them until they fall to bits and I think that may be longer than you think. I got such a good deal from Freestyle Extreme, I'm happy. With that said, I hope you get the resolution you want on your boots. Good luck!

Lanyards In The Scott
16.3 CUT OUT DEVICE: From 1st January 2015 all competitors riding combustion engine machines at a SACU Championship Trial must have cut out devices rigidly connected to the rider by lanyard (maximum 1 metre) so as to stop the engine should the rider and machine be parted. Where possible Pre 65 Machines must have a device fitted that will stop the motorcycle engine. ACU hasn't adopted this rule as of yet.

New Alpinestars Boots
Forma Boulder was going to be my next choice to try, if I couldn't get the A-Stars.

New Alpinestars Boots
They came late today and I rode in them for about 45 minutes, in the 2 small sections I have off my driveway. The boots feel awesome to me. I can feel the pegs, but don't feel barefoot like the Gaerne Balance Oil boots. I can shift and it doesn't hurt!

New Alpinestars Boots
No I haven't.... I figure if they are too stiff for trials, they'll be my new trail work/dual sport boots!

New Alpinestars Boots
They'll get broken in quickly, as I have a lot of trail work to do for an AHRMA XC/MX race in October and with my last enduro of the season this weekend.... I'm going to spend a lot of time on the Fantic and Gas Gas after that!

New Alpinestars Boots
I ordered a pair of Tech T boots last night from the UK, after talking to Lewisport about my pre-order status. They said my size was not available and didn't know when, so they suggested I cancel it. I searched and found them in stock. With GB Pound down, price was so good, I blew the $19.95 to upgrade the shipping and DHL texted me today, that they will be here Friday. I can't wait to try them, as my Gaerne's are like Birkenstocks!

Advice On Bits Needed, New Rider.
ARC doesn't seem list any trials applications, only Brembo and Magura clutches.

2017 Top Triple Clamp
My '17 has a pinch bolt. I didn't think much about it, as this is my first modern trials bike and my '16 KTM and '15 Husky use a similar pinch bolt. I think it will work well.
