Trolley jack. In fact my son just left to go hunting with his girlfriend for three days. It`s funny watching a 20 year old girl get excited about a shotgun for a Christmas gift from my son.

Funny since I started reading this thread, I noticed there was a pry mark on the side door to my garage. I just spent two hours reinforcing that door frame. I too believe in the concept of using a vehicle to secure a building. Being I live out in the country on the legendary old 66 highway, I have more room than most. I usually block the entrance to the side door with my Motor Home and enclosed trailer. The garage door itself is blocked with two vans. And those are all blocked with my other two vans, my 4 wheel drive truck, a jeep and my Blazer suv. Then my son has his car and suv, my wife`s truck and for some reason I cannot get rid of my oldest daughter this last year, so I have two more vehicles with her. So with too many vehicles to move and a thief never knowing who`s home, I have been pretty lucky with no big thefts. Though I am missing a floor jack this week.

Flame on the inside, just to get the carbon burning. You have to feed it oxygen to keep it going.

You have to make it hard to get too in the first place (Bury it behind things) and use a couple of chains. Make it look confusing , use a long chain with multiple wraps and hard to get to the lock. Having something else to steal that is easier to take is a good plan too. Having your new bike out of sight and a cheap nice looking bike available or something else of less value that is easier to take.

You never mentioned what size jets you have and that you checked the circuits. The choke has a jet too and that oring on the jet needs to be good.

Kick starter. Shifting. Clutch. Water pump. Plenty of videos and the changes have been in the advertising.

You did not get your manual with the bike? Go to Gas Gas SA manuals.

Funny, as a Head checker, Sport 7 was more concerned about overall time then just about anything else. Kept telling me to rush them through. No body was in the Que to ride. I asked them if I was supposed to ride thier bikes for them or do you want two or three riders in the section at the same time? They already changed the events to only two loops in tbe first place.

If everyone remembers right FIM had the same problem with the teams/riders last year. Friendly? Sport 7 had more issues themselves. I cannot be more explicit without adding words not allowed here. Brexit was not the problem.

Starting in 2018 the standard Beta 4T is no longer the quiet sewing machine that it used to be.

more like.

The Beta out turns and tracks better than the 4RT. The 4RT is amazing when the front tire is in the air. No matter what bike choice, (Repsol, 260 std or 300) the suspension is better on the Montesa. The Beta starts better. They are both pretty bulletproof bikes. Of course the ease of FI is very nice on the Cota. Their is a noticeable weight difference and ground clearance issue on the Cota. Plastics are way cheaper for the Montesa. If you want a bike to last more than a decade, the Montesa is it. Probably an unfair, but truthful comparison is I know more riders that used to have a 4Rt than have one now. Mainly the Honda lover`s stay Honda lover`s.

Back to square one. The pilot circuit has two passages. One comes out under the slide, the other in front of the slide. These have to be clear and free flowing.

9 0ut of 10 times the problem of all motorcycle problems is a plugged pilit jet.

Read agsin and again.

That is exactly one of the issues of the current organization. The sections become the same style as the local club only sets the boundary ribbon, not the splits. Bring back the technical turns, but the riders would want to stop and hop.

Well that really was the best move for the sport.

Usually you would lump Beta and Montesa, for build quaility and more of a stable ride. Sherco, Gas Gas and TRS would be more on the fringe for the younger hop and bop crowd. I prefer the Beta, but would go with the TRS for build quality in the hop and bop types.

Did you get the correct spoke? There is like 4 sizes , just a little different.

Buy the newest Sherco possible or any year Beta.

Actually you are partly right. I tried lot`s of gear choices. It came with 10 cs, I tried a 9 and 11. Worthless. I even rode for awhile with a 10 and 39. The problem on the Beta is the gap between 1st and second. So I just went for gearing 2nd. With 9 and 44 I usually never use first, but every so often having a super low first works a treat. (The 10 and 39, first worked great but again second became worthless.)

TRS is like the new Gas Gas. The riders looking to better themselves tend to dress the part. My son has gone this way and wears the skin tight pajama`s. But no TRS gear yet. Our club special orders our own club gear every year. Jersey, pants and Jacket.

Actually it is just the opposite. The new bikes come geared fairly tall. They spin due to this style of gearing. With the gearing lowered, once you are on the throttle you will not spin. You are now tracking at a slow pace.

My son was about the same,went from a Sherco to a 300 Beta 4T. He absolutely loved the four stroke power and the engine braking. We also have 10 4rt’s at work that he rides quite well. Last summer he switched to a TRRS 300 RR. main reason was weight. If you hop all day the 4 strokes are just heavy. Good luck and have fun. The 300 is a great looking bike.

There should not be any play up and down, some maybe side to side. Even worse the earlier Sherco`s mains would spin in the cases.
