  1. So if you continued to run it without 2t, would it nip up before it ran the mains / big end ? That was the point.
  2. Sure the FIM will take your words of wisdom on board, looking forward to next year's rounds with 3 / 5 riders.
  3. Think it would nip up before running the mains if no 2st oil.

    Shocks

    I would expect shocks to have improved a little in over 3 decades ? My comparison is slightly more valid in that I have owened and competed with both Fox and Rockshocks on the same make, model and year of bike.

    Shocks

    Had Foxshocks back in the day, wasn't impressed. If you like them, you would love Rockshocks, and all Brittish made.

    Mooses

    Remove cores to make them softer.
  14. That explains why I didn't see you, Saturday was fine, Sunday was excellent.
  15. Paul, b & q sell metal channel that's sprocket width, makes lining up alot easier. Similar to below but in smaller sizes. http://www.diy.com/departments/gyproc-u-channel-l30m/35792_BQ.prd
  16. Why advertise starting numbers if this is the problem ?
  17. "The Edinburgh club decided maybe they could have an additional source of income if they added one of 'these pre-65 things, whatever they were', as a sideshow in Kinlochleven schoolyard on the day before the weigh-in for the SSDT, and in 1984 started their complete misunderstanding of the problems from the outset.........." The first old British bike trial at Kinlochleven was during the SSDT, in an attempt to ease congestion for the Thursday (?) peninsular run. The rest is history to be re-written as you so wish.
  18. Amal 1.5 on environmental grounds ?
  19. So there is no confusion, I'm not against young riders. Ok ? The point being there are some extremely talented young guys on trick bikes, and the danger is that sections are tightened up to take marks off them. The following youtube gives an example of a very talented rider, I have no idea who he is and I'm not picking on him or saying he's a pot hunter.
  20. Contrary as always. "Classic Trials doesn't include big obstacles" you haven't ridden the pre 65 Scottish ?
  21. Pot hunters look for easy opposition, pre 65 enthusiasts ride for the sport. Haven't met your son so can't comment. Not many 13 year olds in the Pre65, or winners under 40.
  22. In the UK climate a lot .
  23. Re young riders, the Classic Manx has a rule which states the winner must be over (40?) Younger riders still ride, and may have the lowest score. The age rule is to sort the pot hunter from the genuine enthusiast.
