  1. What he said! Weave some S turns and U turns into the side of that hill and you can practice! Get your feet wet, go to a trial and feel an idiot like the rest of us! Nothing wrong, it is normal! And fun!
  2. That is the way to do it, and let the local club members know so if they want a practice outing others will be there to ride with!
  3. If that tank is cherry or repairable by a dent guy I would shelve it for a Sammy Miller glass tank/ seat so the kids can have a go! Just sayin'

    Someone needs to pick up that 04 SY listed in the offroad mart! Wish it were closer to me!
  5. Answers: A bit! No! and: Same as what they came off! These questions require precision measurements. What was the problem?
  6. Obviously not a no-stop man!
  7. Just looked at this. I am not convinced this is a problem! The fact the shaft moves in and out and a noise is produced with it in does not appear to be the normal operating condition as there appears to be a gear/ spacer and retaining nut out of situ which would normally hold things from moving in/out that far! Add the fact you state the noise comes in only at higher speeds under load and this would normally be more of a chain/ gear issue which is not uncommon. I suggest you re-evaluate with a new sprocket and chain possibly before going further. Even lube can make a difference. As we have ni idea just how much noise you are hearing, this could be nothing at all. I use WD40 on my chain and it gets fairly rattly after a ride!
  8. Should be a spare wire hanging off the CDI unit then. Earthed or un-earthed changes the map and any switch will do for testing.. that is if you don't believe!

    Not to worry, it is just Billy! We love each other!
  10. Just how much do you plan on pushing it to a crash? Yes they happen, and although many better riders ride with little to no extra protection, I have found myself off at times when just riding stuff. My knees are not good so I wear braces and recco them for many, but as far as general protection, a Camelback , knee/shin and elbow/forearm guards is what I use.

    So what is up?
  12. What year?
  13. Sweet! I may yet go blur on my whity bike!

    Speaking of tools, How you doi'n Billy? I have been riding in my yard!

    Not unlike you, Camelback contains small hand air pump, folding hex set, Multi tool, zip-ties, plug and adjustable wrench to fit it and others. Folded paper shop towel works on either end!
  16. I think you can have that washer done for less than 10 K mate!
  17. That is a good trick, and I was wondering if the cutoff was going to roll around the shop never to be found again! I will wait for mine in the postal delivery!
  18. These things are not tight when new and some slack would be considered negligible, same as the HK roller style in prior years and on other bikes. You can chase this all you like, but your money would be better spent on fuel!
  19. You are getting better, learning to move the bike! You use the big bike like a lazy pig though, you are spoiled now! You need to get back on a good 125 and that will FORCE you to to improve what you have learned and use the bike for what it is worth! It will do any of that and more! Just requires more from the rider! Just saying!
  20. Mags, static balance practice requires beer in one hand, one gets better quickly, not that you will use that skill in a section!
  21. I love this! GGUK did not build them, what are they? Marzocci? That is an Italian word for FU! And yes, they are still perfectly fit for throwing at rocks!
  22. copemech replied to craigrushton's topic in Montesa
    Sounds like a possible air leak, or that jet or passage plugged. Run a fine wire through it to be sure! Corrosion may be restricting it if it has been stored. Although 35-36 jet may be more common today with the alcohol induced fuels.
  23. Oh, and a gasser clutch is different as they use a diaphragm style like a car, feels different, although you may be able to back off the screw just a bit to get the bite point where you want and closer to finger, yet not too close because you want good feel!
  24. Holy Jesus, here we go again, and he has to start out on the lightest and most powerfull bike money can buy! Step 1, just ride! Things come along in time and feel more natural. Step 2, Enduro pants work fine, no spandex required. Might consider knee and elbow protection as falling is normal! Step 3, find a local dealer or TrialspartsUSA for Gasser parts. You will likely need some. Other stuff through dealers or distributors like RYPUSA.com or LewisportUSA.com Yes, that is trials gearing.
