What country do you live in? Guessing UK only because you called it breakers but used parts are not something you shop for internationally. Shocks and forks are not something I would buy used anywhere and you can buy those items new without needing to be OEM branded.

Fuel tap on your bike is a little strange and over-engineered as a result of being fitted with a carburetor instead of fuel injection, Wheel bearings only last a year or three at best. Fork seals wear quickly if the slide bushings are not set perfect, note that when you get new aftermarket slide bushings you might need to do some careful hand file work on the parts to make them fit well, I clean and dry fit the bushings to inspect for clearance, fit or stiction and then finish the assemble.

Most rolling chassis parts and controls are very interchangeable between trials bikes, things like brakes, wheels and suspension assemblies are largely common between models and even manufacturers. We can almost tell you what all parts are going to regularly wear out and need replacement, wheel bearings linkage bearings, fork seals and slide bushings, brakes, levers, tires and chain. Most buy a spare air filter so you can always have one clean, oiled and ready to use. Tether kill switch is normally an add-on to trials bikes and a component that can often cause problems after some crashes. Being a 2007 model you should be replacing all fluids, brake fluid will be done by now if not already replaced.

Add the word Jitsie to your search 👍

I know what engine I would want to hold wide open until it runs out of fuel and not expect it to burn up, it's going to be the Honda.

Now consider the rpm the engine can pull:

Montesa 4-stroke is So much broader in the power band compared to any of the 2 smokes, there would be no keeping with it in the long run. 4T only fire on every other stroke and don't burn oil the entire time.

Unlikely the lubricant is the source of your clutch slip problems, you should have been making measurements of the plates and whole friction plate pack once assembled as well as the spring lengths. Obtaining a service manual is the best place to start if you don't already have one.

Viva Montesa 👍 Competition gearing preference is close ratio gearbox like an MX bike where enduro and dual sport typically used wide ratio gearbox. CR vs WR and once you ride both you will quickly develop a preference.

If it is above the tank and not to the side, you're not just hearing a wasted spark ignition are you? If timing is off the crank it is a wasted spark system.

OMG people his tube type steel rim isn't even a safety rim, you know those tools called a bead break? <- he does not need one because the tire will never bead. You know the big Bang that a tire makes at the tire shop when the tire mounts the bead <- his tube tire on plain ol steel rim will never make that noise unless he has a blowout, because there is no bead to seat 😐 stop making it more complicated, the Only way that tire won't slide right into place Dry is if he pinches the tube between the tire and rim when he is mounting it.

I use hand sanitizer to put handlebar grips on lol maybe that will work for whatever the heck it is you are trying to make slippery.

Screw adjuster valve clearance tightens with wear as the valve wears into the valve seat. Valves do travel at half speed of the crank, is the ticking in time with the crank or valve train, that can help to narrow it down some times. Your bikes parts manual shows only one spring on each valve, most have 2 springs wound in opposite direction to each other (stops the valve from rotating), I'd be looking for a damaged valve spring if it turns out to be a valve noise.

Dog bone linkage bearings need to be serviced lots to keep water out, if the part becomes deformed from impacts it is near impossible to keep the needle bearings good. Many parts are unchanged in the 4RT I just used hydraulic oil in the transmission and change it often, I think the clutch is also unchanged on the 4RT, 2 paper and 3 cork fibre plates in the clutch, nothing special.

Tubeless tires yes, the only place a tube tire bead runs tight is at the rim lock plus cars and trucks have a thing called a safety rim but his chrome steel rims lack that feature it will mount with low pressure.

Now I gotta put something on the rear so I have a spare bike again 😎

Done 😎 how long did I take? Didn't see anything that needed water or soap except my hands, didn't need to wash the bike because it was last used in snow. Get the ~14" tire irons they make it easy after you get arthritis.

On a tube tire 🤔 why make a mess, you do not need to lube a tube tire to mount it, you don't even need to pre stretch the side walls to make a bead seal because the tube will push it into place. Where would you want to put the lubricant 🤔 add that I don't mount a tube tire anything like that video but I know it will still work because I'v done it a hundred times. Going to change out a tire set today, same way I've been doing them for 60 years. I don't add air to the tube until the tire is mounted either! Rim goes inside the tire first, I leave the tube flat and just make sure not to pinch the tube or poke. I push on the rim lock bolt before adding any air to make sure the tube is setting correctly across the top of the rim lock shoe. Tubeless tires go on tight with a big bang and need lots of air pressure and water or lube to help pop over the safety bead, Tube tires don't go on with a bang.

Are we allowed to plug Jitsie parts here?

Picture of what you have to work with might be in order. From your description all it likely needs is bags of money and many hours of wrenching. I say no to period correct parts, unless they are used and in need of service it won't represent a significant cost saving to buy obsolete parts. Here's the problem; if you don't have a ride that works near perfect you will not enjoy the sport.

Rim lock I would buy a light one, but my bikes are a lot lighter they all work if you don't pinch the tube mounting it and that rarely happens. ... I can easy spot the cheapest one there and that would work just fine.

Want to know a Canadian backwoods Trials tire fix secret, the worlds best tire sealant is Fish Glue. I even used it to fix holes in an inner tube tire that has sheet metal screws in it for riding on ice and snow 😎

Seen it done with sheet metal screws through the side of the rim and into the bead, but that's a bit backwoods.

Almost shocking that rim has no hole for a rim lock, hole is typically not same size as the valve stem hole. For the tire to slide that direction it was under brake force Rim lock is a safety feature for braking because it might suck real bad when your brakes don't work.

Rode 4RT for decades and only used the same all season hydraulic transmission oil I used in the farm tractors and excavator in the transmission. Regular Honda oil in the engine. Filters are easy available and inexpensive. Never have clutch and transmission problems even in winter sub zero riding 2T or 4T Using Kubota branded oil at the moment, check out your local farm supply
