General Carb. Tuning
you just described mine!!! but i do tend to ride on the clutch more! ie pick the revs up and feed the power in to find the grip. so im poss a bit rich, 2000 montesa screw out to lean off??

General Carb. Tuning

If You Were The Engineer....
the montesa before the 315 had a plug in bit?? thats altered power! three diferent ignition mappings would be easy done with a switch!

If You Were The Engineer....
brakes you can get the pads out without taking rear wheel out!! selectable power band for wet slippy or dry. traction control would not be very good, somtimes your need a fast spining wheel to clear the ****. good plastics.......... that dont break and dont let the colour peel off. greese nipples on linkages

Bike Racks
i have used a DC one sind 97 and had no trouble though i did modify it to ad a long bar that goes up from the rack rests near the foot rest mount and alows me to loop over the seat with a strap. i than have one from the foof of my van to the handle bar to stop it swaying on braking acceleration. i have had one bike on rack and 3 bikes on a trailer aswell. one point of legality, you tow bar has a wieght limit of XXkg and you will exceed this. i use a witter and its ok, i even bought two tow bar mounts so i could use both my vehicles if misses had one. used to put it on a fiesta and it knew it was there but was ok. i recomend it and best thing is when bike is off just lift rack out and store. forgot another thing i did was weld a ring to the bit on the tow bar so i can padlock bike to van so stop the scum of this world walking off with bike while im in services (pub) etc
