Thinking About A New Helmet
I have the XPeed. It really depends what kind of climate your in. The Xpeed is a bit to hot for here in Hong Kong....BUT...it fits REALLY well...and very comfortable/light/resonable price Just bought an Arai..which was obviously a bit more pricey...BUT is much cooler to wear...which in the 30oC we have here now...and 90 percent humidity...is quite welcome!!

Tlr 200
Thanks t-shock Thats really usefull info. In fact it is the white one...but i THINK I can get my hands on the red one also...so I will now try for that one...although, I think it needs a little more restoring, so your parts sources will also be very helpfull. THANKS

Tlr 200
Hi all, I might be looking at getting a Honda TLR 200. ANyone got any advice on these. Will I be able to find parts easy enough. Were there any drastic problems with this model. THanks in advance for any help

Spark Plugs?
I use a NGK BP7ES..........but only because its hard to get a Champion N7YCC here in HK. But..thanks to r2, I now know where to get some Champions, so I will be using those from now on

Training Dvds
Hi r2 Checked out that web-site you suggested. It was going really well untill I realised, what LOOKS like on-line shopping is NOT. Did you call them to order them, or what?...I would love to get the ones you suggested. Might even help me to brush up on my SPanish...as well as my riding!!

Tlr200 Rear Wheel Bearings
Dabster...they're not really Hong kong Pooey specials..they're actually the same as you'll buy there...sometimes the same as you'll buy in a nice shiny packet from a famous brand....but MUCH cheaper. Last longer than the suits too!!

Tlr200 Rear Wheel Bearings
Hiya...can't help you on what size it should be (sorry)..but if you look on it, there's usually some numbers which tell you the size. If you have trouble getting them...let me know, 'cause I can get any bearing under the sun here in HK...AND they're cheap...could always post you some.

Tc Trial
OK all you TC members ....and guests...heres my lecture!!! Remember you are all very lucky to have the trials scene in UK that you do. Of course its my choice to live away...but I am very envious of your scene there. In a time when its getting harder to find places to ride and harder to find people to organise things for free, you should all be very happy you have these events happening. SO..support your trials events...be pleased you have them!!..get yer entries in!!

Fair Warning... And A Manual?
Good point neonsurge...or rather pointS I guess the Champion advice from factory could be linke to some supply deal they have...and the weather in different places MUST make a difference. From about now untill September it is often between 93 and 98 percent humidity here!!...gets you shedding a few pounds whilst on the bike though!!

Tc Trial
Oh..and Steve... IF you DO get a bike...especially after a bit of time off, why dont you try and book a lesson. Seems like there are plenty available now...not sure if it was that easy years ago. I did one with Dougie Lampkin last year and it was VERY good....and I WATCHED one of Steve Saunders schools and that was VERY good too!! GO ON.....get a bike...and book a lesson.
-
Fair Warning... And A Manual?
Oh dear....now you've put the cat amongst the pigeons neonsurge Its the opposite on my Rev 3....i.e NO knocking with the Champion plug...and SOME with the NGK...I have noticed that higher octane fuel helps also. This debate could go on for a while...but maybe its different for me here 'cause of temperature/humidity...and maybe it was specific to here??..when the Beta factory told our dealer here, that we should ALWAYS use the Champion..and never the NGK?? COnfused...I AM

Fair Warning... And A Manual?
Thanks for the spark plug info r2....will check it out now...Hope they'll post me a box to Hong Kong!
