    That brings me back to the original question. Where do I get one of the Aluminium skid plates to start with? Thanks!
  2. mcman56
    That is a beautiful skid plate. I have been trying to figure out how to make one like that but is seems none too easy. I have heard you can get Aluminium 6061 T0 that is pretty easy to work. It also seems like a hydraulic press with some type of wood forming dies may do the trick but it is still unclear to me. I'm a fair machinist but have no sheet metal experience. Can you let me in on the secret? How do you get alll of those shapely curves in 1/4" Aluminium?

    '97 Fluids?

    mcman56 replied to mcman56's topic in Beta

    Thanks for all of the info but I have syill another question. Where do you drain the oil from? There is a hole in the skid plate around something that looks like a socket head bolt (maybe mine is stripped) Plus there is a hex head bolt under the water pump. Which one is it?

    Are aluminium skid plates still available for a Reflex (TLR200). I would like one like those on the TLR250.

    '97 Fluids?

    mcman56 replied to mcman56's topic in Beta

    Thanks! Do you know what plug is recommended. I thought all trials bikes used a BPR5ES but this bike has a BPR7ES plug in it.

    My 'new' Ty175

    mcman56 replied to johnnyrob's topic in Yamaha

    Does anyone know how much a TY175 weighs (without lights)? Is it comparable to an early 90s Gas Gas?

    Thanks! Beta Techno sounds closer in size. I wonder why they do not list the Sherco.

    Keihin Question

    mcman56 replied to copemech's topic in Sherco

    I checked the Boyesen site and they show no 565 but do have a 656 for the following. Model Product Name+ Manufacturer Buy Now Price 656 Power Reeds :: 125 (4 petal) Cagiva - MX $34.95 656 Power Reeds :: WXC125 : 94-96 Husqvarna - MX $34.95 656 Power Reeds :: WXE125 : 1994 Husqvarna - MX $34.95 Are these the ones? I would think 125MX reeds would be much bigger. Thanks

    Keihin Question

    mcman56 replied to copemech's topic in Sherco

    Does anyone have a Boyseen part number for a 2002 2.9? I contacted them by e-mail but they just suggested tracing the existing ones and sending the trace in for a match. I really liked what their reeds did for my old Gas Gas.

    Our local state run OHV park has seperate motorcycle and 4wd areas (CA) The park officials and 4wd groups have agreed to allow trials bikes in the 4wd area but do not want the MXers in there. The difficult part is how to designate the area for 4wd and trials only. Enforcement could be a major issue. Does anything like this exist elsewhere? How is it handled? (So far, Trials specific tires seem to be the best choice.)
