99/2000
reliability is the dogs(good), or that is what i have experienced in my 2yrs of ownership of a 249 gasser yr2000. The 2000 model has a seat unit then a short rear mud gaurd where as the 99 has one piece seat and rear mudgaurd.from memory also i think the 99 has GASGAS visable on the airbox. Get your heavy beta swapped asap!

Lakes 2 Day
I am a local expert in the area where the lakes is set out and i plot 5 sections each year. the Hobkinground Group sect 29-33 on sat. this is the only part of the trial i am involved with. as shercool said different groups are set out by lots of different people and i think everyone wants there group to be the hardest which causes the problem of it being too hard! 33 was a tester for the clubmen i thought but the others i tried to make easy but enough of a challange to make them interesting. hope this was the case for you all. let me know what you thought

saw james dabil clean the last one of the four on that hill side. clubman was too hard, james is slightly better than your average clubby.

the trial does deserve an entry that it got , it is a cracking ride out!! as for the comment about a world round well thats silly. i had 3 five's sat and 4 sunday out of 70 sections i dont think thats bad. considering i cant finish in top 15 of a clubman national!!! congrats to dan thorpe he almost had it 1min late!!!!! gutted. Tom sagar too, 20 on sunday was a very good ride and almost got him on podium!!

lighter fluid or asetaline works very well. once you have done it a few times you get the nack of only putting enough gas that is required. so its moreof a puff than a bang.

2000 290 Wheel Bearing Sizes
what the hell do you wanna put the wheel in fridge for!! guess u r joking!!, getting them out is quite tricky on some bikes as the internel spacer is a smaller diameter than the bearing. this means you cant slip a punch down and knock em oout. when faced with this i tend to get the mig welder out and build up a platform on the old bearings so i can punch them out.its quick and easy and harms nothin.(you need a welder though)
