    Sounds like you got a fun group to ride with. I am a member of Team WGASA, we are a goofy lot, and are just in it for the fun! This is Myself and Biffsgasgas at an event earlier this year. Wheelchair - $5 (garage sale) Cooler full of "medicine" - $30 (I buy cheap ) Goofy looks and smiles from everybody that sees it - Priceless My winter time practice is usually spent in front of the TV with my kids' Xbox playing Trials HD and EVO. funny thing is there are squirrels hidden in the game to find.

    I see Somebody else also likes to play Trials HD and Trials Evolution on the Xbox

    Sprockets?

    zippy replied to strong_lyk_bull's topic in Gas Gas

    I suggest if you need to change 1 sprocket that you bite the bullet and change both sprockets and the chain, also look at the chain tensioner block and swing arm rubbing blocks. that way they all wear together.

    zippy replied to shercoben12's topic in Gas Gas

    I watched a buddies 2006 Gas Gas 300 Sieze at full revs on it's side in about 20 seconds. Full revs and zero load is bad combination. Sad thing was it was a lay over type of crash. Not even a big nasty fall. We did try to come up with a good story though.

    2013 Scorpa News

    zippy replied to jtrials31's topic in Scorpa

    Found this http://www.scorpausa.com/?trigger=bikes&bikeid=SY250 but I could not find a year anywhere, I think that is a picture of the first year that Sherco took over Scorpa 2010 or 2011??? somebody will know what year.

    If memory serves me correctly, Modern bikes have a filter screen in the fuel tank at the petcock. My 2000 Sherco also had a filter screen on the inlet to the carb. Both of those have "bigish" holes. But a second in-line filter is not going to hurt anything and will provide more peace of mind.

    I rather like how this introduces trials bikes to kids. Kids like Hot Wheels and motorcycles.

    I see they were real careful when tieing them down but I am certain the rightful owners will be very pleased to have them back regardless how they were tied down.

    HAHAHAHAHA depends if you wear an evening dress at the same time. A Kilt does not count as a dress. (don't need the Scotts mad at me)

    Did you have to loosen the pickup to "push" it or did you just push it and it moved? If it is loose maybe it starts ok and then vibrates and moves to new position causing bike to stall???

    zippy replied to wharfedaleharry's topic in Trials Gear

    I ride in Alpinestars, very comfy and have lasted me a couple years so far. I ride about 14 events a year and as many practice sessions as the wifey will allow.

    Bumpy Trials

    zippy replied to sherco34's topic in Trials Videos

    Looks really muddy and slippy fun. That guy is doing a great job finding traction in that mud

    zippy replied to johnnyboxer's topic in Montesa

    If I remember correctly a Montesa 4RT was used for the "Splatter" in the movie Quantum of Solice. Shortly after the splatter there is a "boat jump" where he lands on a boat. I think that is where he is saying they used the CRF450.

    That just sounds dirty.................... More details please

    this season at an event we had 2 riders in Sportsman class. The guy in second proudly proclaimed "I got second place" When asked about the other rider the guy in second said "He did not do so good, he came in next to last" A good time is what it is all about............

    OH You are falling for the classic misdirection of the course maker........ The Big Flat Sheet of Plywood - will be covered in greasy slime and have zero traction, you will put your foot down all day just trying to turn off the darn thing. The Muddy Puddle - will be 4 feet deep.... The Slight Incline - will be dry loose sand, your rear tire will just dig a hole. Actually I have had events where I looked at a section and the spot I thought was going to be easiest I took points all day in that spot. Drives me completely mental....but in a good way. od10 and nedrapier WELCOME TO THE WONDERFUL WEIRD WORLD OF TRIALS we are happy to have you and please enjoy yourselves.

    I really need to be a billionaire............................. So I could hop in my private jet and be there to watch you. Have a good time, don't worry about points....(you will get a few ) Just have fun.

    My recently sold 2000 Sherco 2.9 had a VERY light clutch pull. especially compared to the Honda TLR200 Reflex that I rode getting back into trials. And what surprises me is people actually do modifications to make the clutch even easier to pull.

    They are trials riders, they will find traction whether it is with the bike or the transport vehicle Good luck to all and a safe trip
