  1. How can that be too expensive for a totally new model, with new technology. How much was a Fantic 80 when it was launched, or what about the TYZ, wasn't that about 4k? If the RRP of the 05Mont
  2. I belive it was a scott, no idea what model, but it was produced around 100yrs ago. Thats where we get the scott reliability trial from. Mr Alfred Scott wanted to test how reliable his bikes were so he came up with the scott trial. I think it was based in west yorks at the time.
  3. Hopefully not, its my ambition to score at least 1!! Need more practice tho.
  4. hp means nothing, its the all important torque that matters. The scorpa has plenty.
  5. Lovley weather!, cracking sections and a good run out. No results as yet. Good scott practice.
  6. The regs are filling up fast, if you still want an entry make sure you get them sent in asap.
  7. The scarborough 2 day is one of the highest level youth trials in the country, you expect them to be hopping, and developing the skills of a young dougie lampkin. If you want natural sections go to your local youth trials club, they are to have an enjoyable day out, being quite challanged in some sections but nothing dangerous. Those ridings at scarborough are there to find the best in the country, its marked out to find a winner rather than for the masses to enjoy.

    Paint Colours

    yep, it the same colour as alot of the yamaha road bikes, the colour is dpbmc - Deep purplish blue metalic cocktail. Got it in stock for about
  9. it looks as though they've fitted incorrectly, you should only have 1 edge battered by rocks, I cant tell you which way round off the top of my head, i'm finishing my bike off tonight for the brit champs, will have a look and let you know.
  10. I've got them fitted, as soon as i fitted them, i tried my usual sections as testing, Within 3 mins i realised it maskes the head angle steeper, (after a couple of trips over the bars) so you have to drop the forks through, mine are almost flush with the top yoke, which compensates for lifting the rear.
  11. excellent trial, with plenty of testing sections, some quite big uns, but mainly very technical. The deep soft sand made turning, hoping, walking, well everything very difficult. It was easy to forget you were in the uk, with the scorching weather. There was a reasonable amount of spectators, too which made it feel like a euro championship. Well done to Austy with a great ride, it was good to here the crowd getting behind all the riders. A great venue, but where were the steams?
  12. It was a cunning ploy by the organisers to stop everyone crowding around the score board.
  13. Did anyone think they were at the circus? Wasn't impressed. Nothing like abba blaring out at you when your trying to concentrate in the sections. Needs a change of venue for next year, too over used. Thats my winge!
  14. i'll hopefully be testing one around the scott, should find any problems; if any.

    Clutch Drag Cure

    Clutch drag cure:- Remove standard clutch plates, and place in bin. Purchase new clutch plates from Apico uk, friction and standard, they're not cheap tho, about
  16. 1st lap 10 2nd 15, even fived mums section!!!! how about you, did you find the rain made it very slippery on L2?
  17. I think it was lucy Gregg, Just quite a bad knock i think, didn't see any blood and gore. She seemed to be ok. It did rain quite a bit, had just started my second lap got soaked, wasn't nice.
  18. Brilliant trial. Was anyone there?
  19. they are both good bikes, all the gasser needs is sending to honda and putting right! No probs to report with the current mont
  20. How about we take the front wheel and forks out of perce's bike and have a long wheelie competition, Furthest without feet down wins, points available for best crash and most damage.
  21. Can get you any forks you want, showa, paioli's, maza's. All at a price tho.
  22. At france the 1st section scared me ****less, 10ft steps in sand, followed by 10ft drop offs into sand with no stopping room. Pretty mega stuff alot harder than any stuff i've ever done in the uk, practising or in a trial. I need alot of practice before the hawkstone park round, but you need to be practising with a minder on stuff that you would never even look at. I've started already, it borders on dangerous when your on your own.
  23. you'll have to hit something very hard to mash 4mm titanium, seems to be good enough for the repsol team.
