  1. Nice reality check Glenn, must be your age......
  2. Im definately taking in a euro trial before the regulations change. I think getting bikes in and out of europe may not be so easy, and the french instead of stop and talk may take a different attitude. Conversly i got a driving infringement fine in English from Milan last year sent to my home address. Wondering whether to pay or not.

    Sensible answer. Ian, I know = I have knowledge of No one = no person
  4. Just to explain a little, stupid or not, there is a distinct advantage at the top level to be smaller rather than bigger. Top level relates to the topic as Pol has struggled at this level to get any really good results and as one of the things that has worked against him is his size.
  5. Its a shame you cant string a couple of sentances together without resorting to insults when someone offers up another view than yours or questions the accuracy of your statements. The fact that you misquoted the Orwell reference just increases my belief you dont ever listen. Ive never said gg good others bad in fact if you read my post above it clearly states no bike is a1 gas gas ossa or any. Keep riding? Blue bar 2 day, yes, Alvie yes, 2 days in Richmond n yorks last weekend one observing at the mintex so im not sure your not wrong again? Snide remarks? What letting others know the truth about supported riders comments on how good the bike is? Im not a sheep ive had nearly most makes in the last ten years, just like you i prefer one bike make at the moment.

    I think you are letting yourself down ian things have moved on and gassers are not the same as they were. Little changes here and there can add up, not least the new ignition. Better or worse than any other thats a personal thing but not something I would let put me off a trs ossa or jtg till id ridden one.
  7. Do you mean room 101? Later bikes are not A1, no trials bike is. GG have gone bust once, and unlike ossa had 3 options with people ready to fork out millions to keep the brand alive. If the ossa product were as good as you claim surely someone would have kept it going?

    Steves son is sponsored on a trs.
  10. At 6 foot 4 he was at an extreme disadvantage.
  11. Shame you didnt quiz him about the trouble with the 4t a bit more, or all the problems with the 125's the year the tank swapped with the airbox.......
  12. mono engines are not acceptable afaik in any uk twinshock class its cheating isnt it?
  13. it would be cheating to ride it as a twinshock in competition. Will the carb fit ok in an swm frame?
  14. I think the new liners will improve things no end but thats wheels apart to get done
  15. in motion have them i think
  16. my 2013 factory racing was fine, a top rider near me has a 2015 bike thats done two scottishes on same set so dont think its that common
  17. As you're from somerset you should be able to find a wet muddy slope or even sloping wet grassy field. Something that quick opening of the throttle will make the rear spin. Then practice away NOT using the clutch. make a steeper slope add in a twist or use higher gears just vary the practice and before long you should get some kid of relationship between right hand and traction.
  18. What carb? Clean carb and set float level and new plug as all stated above.
  19. The 2016 is a more rider friendly bike. back in the 02 to 05 period the 250's were prefered by the French experts as they were zippier than the 290. I think the current bike is a softer version than the 2015.
  20. can do after a fall. I prefer grip glue and wire.
  21. Think he could have won hawkstone that year....
