Shiro Helmet!
A shoei fits me spot on, Arai and bieffe never have. This is why unless you have no choice(NZ?) always support your dealer!!!

Wiggy On Trw
That is the Sandiford bike that Alexz will be riding in the uk next week at the "Tough one". I don't think the final trw colour scheme will match this, although clearly it is an 08. Green is Alexz's "colour" as most know, but he will not have any choice as far as bike and clothing colours go.

What Your View On Doug?
Never one to shy away from comment, Dougie is the best Trials rider the world has ever seen. Some may say he's past his best but i think he isn't just yet, and will get one more if the chance presents itself, muddy and wet? A pal of mine said, and I don't know whether its right but I will repeat it anyway, but it wasn't my thought, just food for thought. "Just suppose thst the HRC works 4rt is really the very best bike in the world and then some. It is better than all the rest head and shoulders better. Why did bou do so well from the off? Why has Dougie not repeated the second place, a possibilty this is the best trials bike the world has ever seen?"

You need to "waste" the torque arm/ sprocket protecter for a better look. Swap the lever perches too else one day you will regret it!

4 Jours De La Creuse
strange if it is but can't find the website where it had the dates I looked at. Can't remember the e mail for the woman that speaks such good english either. Not much help really!

Slimming Down A 4rt!
Think they were talking 50k a bike.

Vito Or Transporter Or ?
Not too sure a primastar would be anyones choice above a 174 t5, surely?

Twinshock Ssdt
i guess as the pre 65 and the main event are both oversubscribed whats the point. Not at all sure that a twinshock event would attract that good a following. The traditional series 2008 sponsored by Normandale doesn't have more than 20(?) regular and 40 occasional riders from memory.

Can Doug Win His 100th On The Beta 2 Banger?
If that was the case why did he talk to Xispa. Gas Gas have no money to spend and no real team ethic so why would Fajardo be a possibility for them. Clearly not as he has stayed at Beta his only choice. It was an open secret in the paddock that he was not that happy at Beta.

Can Doug Win His 100th On The Beta 2 Banger?
I didn't argue, I was questioning your patriotism and support for Browny. Its a shame that a) you can't see that and betabonkers has to translate your thoughts.

Vito Or Transporter Or ?
Well why do you think fiats are popular in Italy and edbro in spain? Yearsago the MB 100 was a great van and I always wanted one, sadly they were not available here. H B J is there a subject youre not an expert on? Are you 100 years old?

Bad Starting
change spark plug every couple of moths. My Sherco was always a good starter, completely strip carb jets out etc and reset float height.

Whats Happened To The Vic?
Well done to Sam Haslam for a convincing win at the Vic Brittain' and Chas Lee makes it a south midland double on the easy course.
-
Vito Or Transporter Or ?
yes never mind the quality feel the width! The vito and vw are streets ahead in quality, without question. I am worried that mine has done 65k and nothing wrong with it when these two have had woes. Is it a 130bhp thing?
-
Can Doug Win His 100th On The Beta 2 Banger?
Fajardo is Browns competitor, why would you prefer to see him do better than Pune??????????? Fajardo is only at beta because he couldn't get a deal elsewhere, he even tried Xispa!!
-
Vito Or Transporter Or ?
A big plus for the vw is 0, one two or 3 seats on second row. Vito is two or 3 only, whixch is a pain for 3 bikes swb. Best to do a bit of research as its not always as clear cut as whats best especially as things like not having one seat is a problem for some but not others. 120 cdi sounds good though!
