  1. Had a quiet few hours on this project and came up a blank - Munch was also going to look into it. I thnk these filters are dual layer with a coarse outer layer and a very fine inner layer.
  2. keep us informed - have had a replacement pump of Munch for lots less than the full Honda price but not seen a smaller pump anywhere. PS Had the fuel pump fault occur twice but resolved by degresaing a cleaning sock filter attached to pump. Now have 2 tanks (std and flat) and 3 pumps all functiong ok. PPS Have been fancying having a go at fabricating a pump base to both reduce weight and gain some fuel capacity lost by flat tank but not started yet. Made my own flat tank from a std tank for about £40 including paint and stickers
  3. Not heard of this -anymore info
  4. Anybody had any good experience in the UK - Gaerne Balance boots need a re-tread. Is it best to get original soles or are aftermarket ones ok. Have had mixed experince in the past so looking for a bit of background info
  5. I found the 280 kit a handfull and changed back to std 250 on the 09 I bought, Had sains map on at the time. Currently running a softer version of the sains map, Have rdden the clubman route with some success on a few of the S3 rounds including colmore and found the 250 was stilll getting me out of the big climbs as good as anything no problem . I run std gearing (10 41?) and ride lots in bottom gear and use the rev band to get what I need top end. 4rt does not like to be revved and then dump the clutch like a 2 stroke. Have found ride off the throttle and then give it lots once the drive has hooked up, I find 250 does this where the 280 was spinning or just dragging me behind. As you have a PTB would suggest probably best playing with alternative maps which costs nowt before spending money on a 280 kit. Youll probably want to play with maps if you do fit a 280 kit so may as well do first as last. Best of luck
  6. I guess thats the reason - anything can be cut through. MSM at least know what a trials bike is and cover you during an event and during transit back and forth
  7. Don't think a good chain and padlock is a bad idea and sure I didn't pay any where near £100
  8. Too true - complete wheel is a drop in part tho after 2000 model year.
  9. How bad are the elongations. Sprocket should centalise using the centre hole of the sprocket to give alignment. Bolts just hold it in place via the clamping force generated when tightened up. The fit of the bolt in the hole on the hub is irrelevent once tightened so long as the hole has not elongated that much that there is not enough strength left. Any repair that does not involve welding and redrilling is not going to give that strength back anyway. .
  10. Used to be able to just buy the hub if all else fails - 315 mont can be used but would need different sprocket and disc. PS What holes are you refering
  11. Good luick with the rebuild as said above not many Fraser Hondas about. You may be better targeting the Sammy Miller series on a Fraser as the modern twin shocks rider the harder route in the Normadales
  12. And they are well over 40 too
  13. Top post Barfy - I can do the map stuff and now running my own hybrid map but the screen shots are brill. 1 thing I learnt is that if you read the data currently on PTB using the 07 software is that it only reads the last map you put in so you can't check what is already in map 1 or 2. The HRC instruction manual is on PDF in the web site i mentioned in previous post post but your photos are much easier. Main problems I have had is not having com port set correctly and I think you have to save a map into the software before you can down load it. Barfy - has you computer got a serial port or did you have to get a USB to serial port converter. If so what driver have you installed on PC. I recently reinstalled a driver for mine but its much slower than the one I had down loaded before. Used to take only several seconds to download a map but now seems to take forever. Cheers
  14. Don't think there is a problem switching maps on the go. On the 07 software it asks you which mode you want to down load to (1 ,2 or both)
  15. Exactly the same but will only do single maps and single PTBs. You need 07 for twin map
  16. http://www.montesa4rt.nl/ Cracking web site with lots of info and map converter
  17. 05 won't work so now in with a chance with 07. You need to make sure the maps you have are dual map compatible. I think the file name ends DM. There is a conversion software available on the net somewhere and also software to copmare maps which is really helpful. Check some of me old posts on maps.
  18. Thanks to all at Llanfyllin for a cracking days sport it what was grim conditions to say the least. Thanks to everyone that stood out in the rain so we could play on our bikes. Probably have snow next year
  19. check you have the 07 software.On the bottom rightish there is abox that ask waht you want to change-fuel, ignition,3d map and things like that. At the bottom it asks what mode you want to change- map1,map 2 or both. I think you have to open the map you want and then save it for software to know what you want
  20. Clubs, centres etc can and shoulld be able to choose what rules they want to ride (event by event if it suits)- it works so why argue and change utopia. I ride stop allowed, no stop and have even ridden a few Time trials where marking is 0,3,5.its not an issue changing so long as you know before you start. Only thing that has changed is the rules for the BTC and thats what is being discussed as I see it.
  21. HRC software needs you to tell it what com port is selected. Go to device manager and look to see waht com port you computer has active and then select this in the HRC software
  22. I think maybe continual tweaking of the BTC is possibly not the answer and maybe 2012 will show this to be a watershed. S3 works well Normandales work well I assume Sammy Millers also go ok. BTC is struggling to satisfy many and not nesessarily doing it - Jack of all trades etc. The suggestions have been made before but maybe its the best way forward. Knock the current BTC on the head altogether!. Have a 4 or 5 round series just for the top boys - maybe an Indoor format outdooors on semi natural sections, charge entrance and run as profesional series. Maybe open to internationals and run as a british open. Accept it won't pay for itself on entry fees olone so needs subsidising through sponsorship, license levy etc and make it a real flag ship event. Get behind the other series to fill the gaps left by no expert A etc at BTC.
  23. throttle bodies as either a single or twin map versions and not changebale . I guess if its a single map version it will ignore what ever the switch is on. On the 2 map PTB it reads the switch and changes map accordingly . You can have the same map in both setting on a twin map bike tho. Check yopur PC to see ifit has a serial port rather than just USB like on most modern computers
