still struggling with this one -MSM currently my only option and are quiet expensive. 300rr does not appear on the list - 4ride is on there now Anybody got confirmed quotes for a 300rr from any of the normal insurance companies?

Reverse cylinder air box under head stock tank under seat

Titanium or steel?

I cut mine underneath so original part of top tube remained and the closed up the gap., Some cut the top and open up the gap and then infill with a piece of steel. My welding (old 240 AC stick welder) was ok but my grinding was better

anti judder kit gives you the delay in the clutch -I had this and made clutch vague. Just clean up plates with coarse wet and dry and judder goes for a good period. of time

Vertigo style frame - 4rt engine and suspension Come on you 4rt to 2t guys, make a 2t to 4rt

Despite having been away from gods country (Yorkshire) for a few decades and being an engineer by trade the thought of both spending money (mine or the other half's that she could of spent on food or cleaning stuff etc) and on something I could construct from my special project storage unit (shed) and then to add insult to injury spend 1.5p a month on electricity shocks me to the core =- shame on your brother. (no wonder you live on the posh side of Leeds). As for fancy socks - isn't skin waterproof anyway. As my years away from Yorkshire have been spent in Wales - don't mention wellies. Having now probably offended family, women, the welsh will finish my lunch - now where is that road t' lick gravel off???

I have made a stand from wood and 2 pieces of plastic waste pipe to stand boots upside down. I leave these in utility room near but not on the boiler. I have an old pair for midweek to keep my best boots for competition. My little stand does clip into a radiator if I need to dry some quicker.

Anybody had any updates on this. The couple of searches I have done quickly the all the 250's and 260's appear in all drop downs under Honda -Montesa but the 300RR is missing in action. Any tips appreciated

Youlll need to install software on your lap top and then open up the application . you need the twin map software which I think is called 07rtl if I can remember . dusconect fuel pump , plug in cables etc and you should be able to select and read the lat installed map.

I’m sure they had been arucles on here about sag and pre load etc. The ohlins instructions I had gave this info and required sag to be a % of travel etc. As dabster says both ends to be balanced.

Not quiet local but what help do you need?

no problem -hacksaw work well if too long

I'm sure mine have come with longer bolts in the past - maybe not the Apico one though. Bolts to look for if on internet will be an M6 Allen bolt - not sure of length bot if you measure the length of the standard bolt (not including the head) and add the thickness of the case saver it will give you a length to google. If stuck I can measure one of mine tonight

Interesting to compare line fior like so the beta 4t is the only similar bike. I think they are 70 kg dry?? But struggling to find a spec. A four stroke will always be heavier than a two stroke as it has more whirly bits. Only way to counter this is less metal elsewhere or lighter metal . Less metal tends to lead to weakness , lighter metal is more expensive. so it's all a bit of a trade off!! if a 65kg 4rt was £12k would they sell many ?

As the bumper sticker used to say my other 4rt is a tlr

i have - it didn't.

Maybe also the thread should read "in real world section" Not sure the Montesa is at any disadvantage in the majority of sections ridden by the majority of rider s especially streams and and rocky sections. A good long rocky gulley is bread and butter for the Mont so maybe its a case of deciding what you want to do and choosing accordingly. if you want to get the bike out of the garage every weekend knowing it is going to run exactly the same as it has for every other time you have ridden it and knowing it will stay together for several seasons and make you smile every time you give it a blast across a bit of open ground them might be worth the extra weight and engineering even if it holds you back from being able to do the best flick turn in the car park. Bit like marmite - if it was change to red and tasted of strawberry it would be called jam. .

in 5 years time the Montesa will still weight 76.5 kg and the gas gas 65.2 kg with the bits that have broken and fallen off or 73 KG with the weld to fix the bits that have broken - The wallet of the Gas Gas owner will also be much lighter than the Montesa owner Only joking

Top improvement. Read somewhere the 300rr has a shorter rear brake pedal - is this correct and now standard with the further back footrest of the last year/

heard he was going to Fantic

looks nice. Chrorme front pipe?

Presume stop is not going backwards. When stop allowed but no reversing if you watched where somebody started hopping from and then where they finished up they could of gone back a few inches but you could never tell at which point they actually went back but they did -5's were hardly ever given. Also I found you had to use more markers and tape to stop riders splitting sections into sevral zones each being attempted at odd angles of attack rather than a straightforward route through the planned section. As said already the simple answer is that there isn't one!!

As I tried to say - let the sections take the marks. A momentary stop should not be the decider . If people take the Micky give them a five. if the section is cleanable with a proper no stop ride then no advantage is being gained by a pause or stop so is in effect is irrelevant unless we are being pedantic . It only an an issue when a pause to stop give the rider an advantage or is essential.

Modern auto boxes have clutch packs very similar to pre diaphragm trials clutches and epicyclic gear sets very similar to the small gears in trials bikes.
