'17+ Sherco Clutch
I ride an '18 Scorpa 125 Factory, with the updated '19 clutch spring and it's a much lighter pull than before. Another guy I ride with, did it to his '17 Scorpa 250 Standard and is very happy.

Pat Smage gives some tips in this video. I have small hands and run the S3 lever on my clutch.

Montesa 4rt Engine Weight
There's a reason that Bou and Fuji's motor cases, covers and fuel injection body are built by HRC out of magnesium....

Boot sizing
I wore a 45 in Gaerne and just bought Stylmartin Impact Pro in 45. Fit fine.

Sherco TY 125
Depends on where you live in the States? I live in a rural part of NY, that prides itself on being centrally isolated. There is less than an hour away to the west, a TRS dealer. And same distance to the east, a dealer with Beta, Sherco, Scorpa, Jotagas, Vertigo, Tenaci Wong, Oset, and a huge stock of non current parts for Aprilla, Scorpa and Fantic It's a 2 hour drive to the Gas Gas dealer though. You can ride a trial of some sort every weekend, from April to October and not drive further than an hour and a half. Many World Round were 20 miles from my house, and many more National Championship rounds. But if you lived 5 hour south of here, you'd think trials didn't exist in the USA.

Sherco and Scorpa have the same importer in the USA. They only brought in the Sherco version.

RYP brought a small number of them in last year. A member on ADV Rider Trials forum bought one. The US version shows up later in this thread. https://advrider.com/f/threads/2019-sherco-125-four-stroke.1344294/

Arai Pro Shop
If you remove the liner, you’ll see how thin the padding is for front and rear. There’s no real ability to adjust it. I went through all this, as I bought a Hyper- T Pro on the internet. It was quite a bit less expensive, than a Penta Pro ordered from European site. Arai Europe confirmed the difference in shell shape, when I inquired. I sold the helmet, and went back to an Airoh TTR.

Arai Pro Shop
Is it a European Market Penta or a Japanese Market Hyper-T? The head shape is different on both, with the Penta more oval and the Hyper-T more round.

GG UK riders
Have you asked a dealer lately? This came from Mark Berg the COO of GGNA, to my local dealer. I'm guessing John Shirt Jr knows the same info, and has told dealers.

Spanish rumours
A Womens Class rider was DQ'd at a World Round a few years ago for being under the minimum weight. Her bike was weighed at the end of the loop when it was low on fuel. It had gone through the Weigh In, with a full tank of fuel and passed.

This was on the GG Motos UK FB page.... Happy New Year from myself and all at GAS GAS MOTOS LTD. 2020 is a new chapter for GG now that they have the big brother of KTM to guide them. I am both excited and a little fearful of the change but have faith that the GG brand will gather momentum strongly through 2020. JST JOHN SHIRT and our amazing staff stand firm and assure customers old and new that we are 100% onboard for this new chapter looking ‘forward’ positively ??. I wish everyone a healthy and successful New year ??? Regards John They just bought a small shipment of 250 and 300 TXT's from Gas Gas Germany.

Throttle 'ring'
Where I live in the Finger Lakes region of NY, it's as muddy as the worst in the UK. Only rocks we ride are in streams, and the smooth variety. I ride 125 in trials and enduro, so no huge 300 power. I find a quick throttle gives me more control, with smaller inputs to get the response I need.

Throttle 'ring'
I use a G2 Ergonomics quick turn throttle on my Husqvarna TE125 enduro bike. It's the most aggressive ring(ramp) available, and requires they machine the Domino throttle assembly so it can fit.

Can you solve the mystery of the red throttle wheel cover?

This wouldn't account for 1/8 turn, but could he mean this? https://www.jitsie.com/en/throttles/46696-throttle-pulley-with-roller.html

New boots Recommendations
Gone through a bunch in the last 4 years..... Started with Gaerne Balance Oiled. They were far too slipper like, with no shank in the sole. Next I tried Alpinestars Tech T . Good stiff sole with steel shank, but soles are hard and slippery walking sections. Lots of padding and double toe cover. Also a little short in height, and seemed to catch the tops more often. I wore the soles out, but still use them for street bike riding. Onto Forma Boulders next. I liked that they were a bit taller, and a reinforced toe box. More flexible, but less padding. Soles are a little better traction wise, but the S3 Hard Rock footpegs, that are stock on my Scorpa Factory are hard on the soles. I'm going to get them resoled, and keep them for spares. I've just got a pair of Stylmartin Impact Pro now. Microfiber, not leather, so stiffer all around. I'll have to see how the toe breaks in, as it is single layer, and doesn't seem to be reinforced. More padding like the Tech T though. I think I'll like them.
