    Is that special welsh Sellotape?
  2. nigel dabster
    So extending the logic why would Michelin supply anyone with Tyres not just special ones? Logic works both ways and as stated before a couple of years ago Bou and Fujian had x kites before all the others so logic says it COULD be a different compound but no one will ever know. Addding to conspiracy the minder bikes don't have the same Tyres and when Gomez was supported he was given Tyres with no logo from the back of the truck. So conspiracy theory or not we can't proove it either way?

    What smage has bailed again?
  4. nigel dabster
    Yep. Wasting my time here. Annoying thing is it's an innovative bike with some terrific ideas but seems to have zero promotion in the UK The fi is a good leap forward, just not sure with the economic climate small sales can sustain a newish brand?

    The Tyres look the same, apart from the sticker.

    The single one in the middle?

    So having them "on order" is that the same as the 2000 units they had Pre-sold before production started, which magically transferred to total sales worldwide of 250???

    Is it my imagination or do you always try subliminal advertising in every thread you can?

    I bet the slime doesn't help the dog turd to stck. A patch on the inside will be fine but I wouldn't want to go to the top of a mountain like that!

    http://www.yamaha-motor.co.jp/global/about/cp/ it's in the yamaha museum not too sure it's "works" more like an example of early ty to complete the collection.

    Heard that you should NEVER use washing up liquid it rots the aluminium. Earlier in the post he said he was using a tube so no trouble expanding the tyre. I always use a beader they can be used with new Tyres straight from the shop, having used one most peeps wish they had bought one years ago.

    Great advice coxy my techniques much the same.
  16. nigel dabster
    Where have you seen such a machine? Are you saying ossa are being taken over by gas gas?
  17. nigel dabster
    I think Glen has hit the nail on the head. Having seen the Tyres up close it would seem a bit strange that the Tyres only special treatment is a screen print michelin logo quite small? Also as party to this conspiracy theory are the non believers saying that bou and Fuji didn't test the X kites before production?

    Joking apart the Fim technical rules are not rigidly enforced, afaik there has never been a suprise weigh in which could be interesting ditto the small tanks on some bikes whichnare not allowed to be refilled and so on. So whilst the Tyres appear the same I have my doubts

    Since giving up his mail order business he now gets involved with archeology and has recently been involved in an ancient burial ground excavation. So whilst not technically correct the comment"spinning in his grave" might lead you to think he had passed away this is definitely not the case.

    Take the top off the reservoir and you should get a spit as you work the lever into the bars and release. If you get bubbles in the fluid there is air in the system. Best to get someone who knows to show you how to do it, it's easy enough when shown but more difficult to explain in words on here.

    I think this is where Pindie is out of touch with what actually goes on in organising and running ordinary events. i wouldnt mind betting that only one or two trials clubs in the uk operate "as a buisness" I certainly know that no one in our club is ever paid for the time they put in they are volunteers. also we run trials at a loss sometimes because we dont get enough entries after the landowner gets paid, so its maybe a loss leader but probably just a loss.
  22. nigel dabster
    These bikes are niche market for trials and they will never sell in numbers. mitani parts? Why? Just buy any 250 and they will be way better anyway, for trials.
  23. nigel dabster
    crikey the pro was a leap forward then.....
