My long ride tank from 2002 model cracked again and I'm planning of getting normal tank.. do you know if different year scorpa tank would fit my 2002? I found 2004 tank
Added couple pictures, duck taped it at the moment. Crack starts on that bend where tank sits on frame.. Aluminum solution is too difficult for me I think:(
Hello, finally got my first bike scorpa sy250 long ride, but after filling full tank realized that it has a crack. It is at very top where tank overlaps the frame, about 2cm. was googling ways of fixing this and found that plastic melting / welding is weakening the tank and best way is to use proper repair kit.. So after research for repair kits I am lost:D almost every repair kit has some bad reviews- didn't work / came off after 15 min etc..
Wondering if someone here is familiar with these plastic tank repair kits and would recommend me a decent one?
Also, because of location of that hole is where tank is lying against metal frame, thinking of making some padding of silicone or something, so it's softer..
Scifi, it should be well healed now- 3 years passed since accident.. I can do normal things like play tennis, do squats in the gym but it's deep in my mind, a feeling that ankle is weak especially when I still got metals in it
Frenchy3 yes, learned my lesson to go for the best. But most expensive best brands doesn't mean best protection in that case. But I still love the look of SIDI
Oni Nou - Thanks, good idea about ankle supports, never thought about that!
Twinshock just doesn't look as much fun for me personally. But I got what you saying. There is no such a speed like mx so falling of the bike should not be as bad:) Good to know about helmet as I thought it's just for vision..
I just found on some other forum people talking about Alpinestars tech3 all terrain boots- good grip when walking etc...
To be honest I am just starting and for now it's more to go and have some fun in woods or quarry. Will not be doing mileage walking and studying sections, not in near future anyway.. I don't mind to struggle walking at all My biggest concern about mx boots on trials bike is possibility to ride it all together. I saw that trial boots sole is flat. That Aplinestars isn't completely flat, would I be still able to ride it normally? I mean foot peg can only be at very back / or middle-upwards because of uneven sole. And is trials boots ankle flexibility from side to side necessary compare to Alpinestars T3 for example?
Sorry for so many questions, just want to make sure before buying online, there are not many shops locally for that sort of stuff.
I'm new to trials, and wondering about safety gear.. Boots are number 1 priority for me. Used to ride MX bike and broke my ankle in couple places. After long time thinking decided to go for trial bike- looks safer.. I checked so many reviews for trial boots, but most of them state how flexible and comfortable they are.. Almost bought SIDI trial boots, but when I checked them in store, ankle area didn't look very supportive, looked so so flexible compare to mx boots.
Maybe you can give me an advice from practice what boots give a bit more support for ankle? Or are they pretty much the same and every trial boot is so flexible?
Also, what disadvantage is from mx vs trial helmet? Knowing myself that I like to try stuff which is beyond my capabilities I am scared to loose front teeth:D
that's why I want a bit more protection
