  1. Try starting without choke, if it does its flooding.
  2. I think it was suggested that acu should support up and coming riders by increasing the license fee in line with Spain !
  3. @greychapel Would you be prepared to pay £300 a year for a license ? The fee isn't popular with a lot of Spanish riders, and would probably kill the sport in the UK.
  4. @ironbelly It is an open forum !! I've just never found the argument "if you disagree with me you must be jealous," a very convincing one.
  5. I have used leather boots from many manufacturers, they all get soft and lose some protection, when saturated. Sidi, being made of Lorica, don't seem to suffer from this. I initially found them a bit clumsy, but soon got used to them. Definitely the best protection I've experienced. (Incidentally, they are small, go up one size)
  6. @rootsman2 why not look him up on facebook and ask ?
  7. afaik - Andy's rule book - no text speak !!!!!!
  8. Notable trials coming up in 2018 - Pre65 Scottish and SSDT. http://www.ssdt.org Highland 2 Day http://www.idmcc.co.uk/highland-classic-trial/ To compete in either of these, your biggest issue is going to be insurance. Both events would require re-patriation of some sort, usually from your governing body, IF that can be arranged ! Check this out first as your medical history will have a significant impact.
  9. https://m.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1482177598544614&id=128985493863838&set=a.427873350641716.1073741825.128985493863838&source=48 A complete mixture, pre 65 2stroke first, Cub 4t second, TRS third, twin shock, modern 2t, its all down to the rider IMO.
  10. At a recent trial at Hope Farm, Northumberland, on the expert course 17 of the 19 riders were on 2 stroke - the winner was on 4t.
  11. Reducing the diameter by,say,200g. Or removing 200g from the depth will have very different results.
  12. J B Weld is pretty good for small repairs.

    Stolen Betas

    Doesn't sound like you have much faith in the police ? What database will the VIN's be checked against ?
  14. Metal inserting plastic shield ?
  15. Depends on the terrain, I use 5th & 6th off road regularly.

    not starting

    Air leak ? Tighten jubilee clip on engine side of carb.
  17. During a postage stamp trial, maybe. Real trial, 6 sensibly spaced gears are always better than 5.
  18. If its still an NGK, plugs that run hotter have a Lower number.

  20. Think your analysis is about 99% out !! (@pmk, incorrect)
  21. If you have fuel in the crankcase, and it sounds a possibility, try NO fuel, NO tickling.
