  1. I've pressed the like button on all the comments above. John's comment's hit the mark really well.
  2. Muddy trials need high gears and momentum as you said, grippy or tight sections need lower gears quite often, you'd get nowhere in the **** in first gear on any bike let alone a 4rt
  3. 9/42 is spot on, pulls 4th really well
  4. This time of year 3rd and 4th gets plenty of action on Gerty, in the dry though its always 1st gear no matter what gets put infront of her.
  5. Get a chest harness, best place to mount the camera I'd say.
  6. Sean you'll love it mate, incredibly cheap compared to road racing and a hell of a lot safer as well.
  7. The 4rt is big and heavy and you may struggle to get used to it (maybe not though) I'm not a Sherco fan after selling my first and last within three months so I'd say a 250 Beta or a 250 Scorpa. I had a quick ride on a 300 Beta last weekend and couldn't believe how light it felt and how easy it was to throw it around after years of riding a Mont, but I still love my 4rt's as they're very reliable and puts a smile on my face every time I ride.
  8. Murphy showed up at Mass one Sunday and the priest almost fell down when he saw him. He'd never been to church in his life. After Mass, the priest caught up with him & said, " Murphy , I am so glad ya decided to come to Mass. What made ya come?" Murphy said, "I got to be honest with you Father, a while... back, I misplaced me hat and I really, really love that hat. I know that McGlynn had a hat just like mine and I knew he came to church every Sunday. I also knew that he had to take off his hat during Mass & figured he would leave it in the back of church. So, I was going to leave after Communion and steal McGlynn's hat." The priest said, "Well, Murphy , I notice that ya didn't steal McGlynn's hat. What changed your mind?" Murphy replied, "Well, after I heard your sermon on the 10 Commandments I decided that I didn't need to steal McGlynn 's hat after all." With a tear in his eye the priest gave Murphy a big smile & said;" After I talked about 'Thou Shalt Not Steal' ya decided you would rather do without your hat than burn in hell, eh ?" Murphy slowly shook his head. "No, Father, after ya talked about 'Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery ' I remembered where I left me hat."
  9. Ebay Snowman for sale, needs some attention, £5.00 ono
  10. I said to the wife, I've got a problem. She replied "no we have a problem. We are a couple, we're a unit"... Your problem is my problem. We are in this together... " Over whelmed with relief, I said.... "it's hardly worth mentioning now" but she was insistent on knowing, " what is the problem??....." I then had to explain to her that, " WE have got your sister pregnant!!!
  11. A man wakes up one morning to find a gorilla on his roof. So he looks in the Yellow Pages and, sure enough, there's an ad for gorilla removers. He calls the number, and the gorilla remover says he'll be over in 30 minutes. The gorilla remover arrives and gets out of his van. He's got a ladder, a baseball bat, a shotgun and a mean old pit bull. What are you going to do? the homeowner asks. I'm going to put this ladder up against the roof, then I'm going to go up there and knoc...k the gorilla off the roof with this baseball bat. When the gorilla falls off, the pit bull is trained to grab his testicles and not let go. The gorilla will then be subdued enough for me to put him in the cage in the back of the van. He hands the shotgun to the homeowner. What's the shotgun for? asks the homeowner. If the gorilla knocks me off the roof, shoot the dog.
  12. Did it lose a lot of oil when it went over? I think the standard ones bleed excess oil into the airbox so might be worth checking its not full of oil.
  13. My 07 started to idle erratically, fine when riding though until it gave up a few weeks later.
  14. Might be a sign of the fuel pump giving up.
  15. A young man called Chris from London wanted to buy a Christmas present for his new girlfriend. They hadn't been seeing each other for very long and she lived in Scotland. Chris consulted with his sister and decided, after careful consideration, that a pair of good quality gloves would strike the right note... not too romantic and not too personal. Off he went with his sister to Harrods and they selected a dainty pair of fur lined quality leather gloves. His sister bought a pa...ir of sexy knickers for herself at the same time. Harrods had a free gift wrap offer but the assistant mixed up the two items, the sister got the gloves and Chris unknowingly got the knickers. Good old Chris sent off his gift wrapped present in a parcel with the following letter. Dear Maggie, I chose these because I've noticed that you are not wearing any when we go out in the evenings. If it had not been for my sister I would have chosen the long ones with buttons, but she wears shorter ones (which are easier to remove). These are a very delicate shade, but the lady I bought them from showed me the pair she had been wearing for the past three weeks and I hardly noticed any marks. I had her try yours on for me and she looked really smart in them even though they were a little bit tight on her. She also said that they rub against her ring which helps keep it clean. In fact she hasn't needed to wash it since she began wearing them. I wish I was there to put them on for you the first time, as no doubt many other hands will touch them before I have a chance to see you again. When you take them off remember to blow into them a little bit because they will be naturally a little damp from wearing. Just imagine how many times my lips will kiss them during the coming year. I hope you will wear them for me on our next date. All my love, Chris P.S. My mum tells me that the latest style is to wear them folded down with a little bit of fur showing
  16. I'm getting one when mine gets a bit tired, 2026 should be good to go.
  17. A lorry driver breaks down on the M6 with a cargo of live monkeys on board, bound for Chester Zoo. They need to be delivered by 9:00 am and the driver fears he will get the sack if they don't get there on time. He decides to try and thumb a lift for his monkeys and eventually an Irish lorry driver pulls over. "Where they going?" asks the Irish chap. "Do us a favour mate and take these to Chester Zoo for me," says the driver, "and here's a hundred quid for your troubles." "H...appy days," says the Irish fella, loads the monkeys onto his truck and gets on his way. The lorry driver goes about trying to fix his truck and is there for a good few hours when he notices the Irish fella coming back down the motorway, still with all the chimps on board. Panicking, he flags him down again. "What are you playing at?" he fumes, "I told you to take them to Chester Zoo !" "I did," says the Irish fella, "but there is still fifty quid left so now we're going to Alton Towers."
  18. I've been having real problems with nuisance phone calls lately...... The most common one seems to be ......"You said you'd be home from the pub three ****in hours ago!"
