I have been using 'silage tape' [a very wide roll of sticky plastic] to seal the gap between the mudgaurd and the top of the airbox, and that has worked a treat although it needs to be replaced after every wash off, no big deal to do again though.
This afternoon I have tried slitting a piece of rubber fuel pipe and running that along this edge to see if this will make a more permanent seal, time'll tell though.
I would be interested to know what glue you all use to stick the rubber to the mudguard please?
the chain as you know runs through a rubber tensioner i usually adjust the chain so there is approx 20mm gap between the top of this tensioner and the underneath of the swinging arm its what my manuals advise
When it's off or on the stand?
Cheers
if you have a maintenance stand then i would advise using that :-)

Anybody know where i can get a good price on these boots?
Not without spending more sadly, looking at Ebay you will get a pair for
Cheers guys, i should have said the alpinestars i bought were the trials no stop boots. Sounds good with the comfort, just need till the guy stops p****** me about, advertised as "as new boots" two hours use. Just emailed me saying he just noticed scratches on them eBay eh!
Great forum, I've gleaned plenty of info from the posts, thanks.
Newish to trial after years of road bikes and road racing, discovered trials bikes a couple of year ago now and absolutely love riding my 290.
My road bike is under covers losing money steadily, whereas my trials bike is in a constant cycle of ride, wash, oil, ride, wash, oil, ride, wash, oil.
Even though I ride A fair bit, I am yet to muster up the courage to enter a trial, I will though
Thanks for the replys, i have got a pair of alpinestars on ebay I tried on a pair of alpinestars tech3 motocross boots and they were extremely rigid and hard and i was wondering if the trials boots will be any more flexible and softer because the tech3s really restricted movement. Can anyone give me an opinion?
Don't worry, if it is the Astars trials boots that you've bought, then they are really comfortable.
Mine were super comfy from the first time of wearing and have just got better.
They are my first ever pair of trials boots, [newish to trials] so I am not an expert however I can compare them to my road/roadrace, MX and even my trainers come to that and they are be my first choice of footwear.
Had mine for abou 10 months now, wear them once to twice a week and no problems at all, as yet.
Got a funeral to go to this week and I would wear them there if they went with my suit.

I hope it works for you, I just know that I can not find a glue to do that sort of job very well, plastic can be a bugger to glue to.
Good luck, let us know how it goes.
