Not at all and shows your lack of insight into the real reasons why the factory got into trouble, remember they were world champions 3 years running till 79? unemployment in the 80's in Spain was not disimilar to current levels of 20 odd percent and this was due in the main to the stringent labour laws more than any mismanagement of Bultaco, and there inability to downsize.Strikes were due in the main to lack of cash flow caused by too high costs and the inability to make workers redundant.

Bultaco proved what exactly?

well done for trying.

head gaskets

I got some made up by Anglia Vinyl art 01603631335,looked 100% original apart from the 4

plodding you may be but if you were the one insuring the risk, ariie or twinshock would you take the chance?

like this?

you need a beader, most trials shops have them.

sounds sensible.

your tank times 4 will be what you need plus spare.

me too I run at 4.5 to 5 and am not hard on tyres. Dont get many more punctures on x lites maybe a couple but not significantly more.

Not much better than anything else really, with the disadvantage of a small motor. Hutch and birks were exceptional riders

Aye i remember when I was a lad, twinshocks with snorkels......

whats your weight?

Shame he couldnt keep at it in some way, too many talented youngsters are not carying on from every country.

number 30 then?

4 times in speedos , youre on!

is it available?

Perhaps Scott could you give us a resume and we could then perhaps guess how well you will finish?

your in box is full cant message you 249

Have you seen Ross's result from Carlisle? Ross was always there or thereabouts in the youth and juniors but a couple of years out has made his task at the top level almost impossible, he would need to go full time from a year ago to give it a real shot. i have pm'ed about the other comments.

Perce is the expert but from watching I would not reccomend going far different pressures from what you normally would, because the bike is harder on you with 10 in the front, and unless you are supremely fit the bike will make you work alot harder for grip etc. A 4rt is perfect across the moors no need to change the gearing it will go faster than you dare/can safely ride. good luck what number?

They dont need a rider before the bike is ready thats where ossa went wrong with fajardo? A decent wtc rider will cost money have jotagas (or any of them for that matter) got that before the're ready and selling more than a handful?

add to that tyre pressure and i think youve got everything covered that affects grip.

Sorry you've misunderstood my point, its not that by attending a couple like me I have a more valid point, its more by not attending there is something missing which makes you all not bothered to go. do you see what I meant now. (not patronising at all here think I didnt make it clear!)
