First Ride On New Bike. (Issues)
Calm down fella, I think there is less going on here than you think! Clutch rattle is normal even on new bikes so dont worry about the noise, its fine, lets park that. The carb if its a dellorto means the bike isnt "new"? Do you mean new to you? What did you do to cure the air leak issue you noted above? If the tickover is too fast slow it right down till it just stops then A LITTLE above that is fine. Note here if it wont tickover unless its quite fast then there is something fundamentally wrong. When you cleaned the carb did you check the banjo filter? Does the choke seat nicely and make a good seal? Are the floats set at 18.5mm? All this talk of 3 or 3 1/2 turns is rubbish you need to start here and adjust to suit the particular bike/atmospheric conditions. (that said dellortos are pretty good and dont vary as much as kehins)

Spanish Fiasco?
So a bunch of guys ride their home round and the top ten clean half the sections, not really thought that through eddie?
-
Spanish Fiasco?
its 5.45 and im just in from work before out again to price up some more, head above water rather than earning. Realistically Fry and haslam would struggle to get top ten on the junior course at present.

Spanish Fiasco?
Ridiculous The fim has had a section checker in the form of Jordi Pasquet who simply aint doing his job. They should be encouraging riders not trying to wreck them, clearly if Bou is on more than 10 the trials too hard. What happened to Dibs, Fajardo lost 3 on time and was one place behind Matteo Gratterola highest place before 8th?

Who Built This Sherpa?
Looks like a copy of one of the later comerford specials a la vesty. Front pipe interesting as is back box, pivot for swinging arm looks too high and not a sherpa back wheel?

Fuji as good as bou? No agreed. Bou can get up stuff that no one else can just the Man? No.

But how good is the HRC full factory Mont? Is it just bou that gets up the indoor sections when no one else does or just a little that very special bike?

Andorra Trial Day 1 Results
which is why Jake and Martin lampkin gave up on running an English world round, they couldnt match the start area required with access to trucks and flat areas, locked gates, wi fi and so on with good trials venue?

Andorra Trial Day 1 Results
...........which was the whole point of the change? Unless it was to put Bou at a disadvantage? Entries are down in all catergories unless I'm mistaken. no more riders will join the top route unless financially it can work, ie rich perents or factory support?

No Oliveras In Usa?
Jtg and ossa arent listed anywhere how pathetic its another way the fim are trying to kill the sport. someone needs to give them a reality check, lets hope gas gas and beta dont pay then how daft would the results look, or raga changes his name by deed pool to Adam Gasgas and dibs is James Beta -Dibs

Dead Man Switch? What Next Training Wheels.
They can but when minders grab bikes its the guillotine effect they are trying to stop I think
-
Dead Man Switch? What Next Training Wheels.
I think the filling in is so it cant act as a guillotine, as per disc on front which have a full guard, all to do with minders loosing fingers! saw it once from 50 yds away and it wasnt nice.

Was he on the ossa? You do not have to pay to have a bike displayed in results, where do you get the idea that you do? weird in the extreme?

Magnetic Kill Switch
Exactly. I think these are great devices and should be universal, and as jfc says before it gets revving its cut off.
