  1. Try and get a 99/200 Montesa 315 or a Beta. From what i have read and listened to they seem to be best for beginers as they are a good ride and the most reliable/snap proof of that era - which is good for VFM. I bought a 99 Mont for

  12. I have a dave cooper on the back of my Nissan Xtrail - its brilliant so much less bother than a trailer. Strap wise i use BMW ones. A great tip i got of my Dad - just go into a dealer and ask niceley if they have any of the straps they use in the containers that deliver the bikes spare. They are ace and never come loose.

    Rear Sprocket

    Hello Chaps - im gonna get a new chain on my bike and thought i get a new sprocket as well. Have seen some nice red Talon ones on Ebay. They come in 40 or 42 teeth. Its to dark after work to go and count how many i have on mine. Which should i go for. I guess the more i have the lower the gearing so i was thinking 42. Many thanks!
  22. Hi Andy I have that exact same bike and I have found it brilliant.

The 315's are all 2 strokes - the Montesa 4RT are 4 strokes and replaced the 315 in 2005 (i think) Regarding price i paid
