Can you explain that adjustment? I can't picture it in my head.

Can we hear some specific results from riders who have run their Trials bikes with both ignitions? What are the perceived differences? Wider powerband? Top end power? differences in starting? ??? Was it worth it?

My clutch slips a little bit when kicking the lever in warmer weather. I've never been able to discern any slipping while riding though. That's the main reason I took it apart. Every thing looked good so I put it back together. I imagine ATF would minimize the slipping, but it always starts despite the slipping, and works well with light gear oil. I'm afraid it will be some time before I can give it the warm weather test .

You would probably like my TTR230 dualsport. https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/Hl1P6mKnnrQ2nojrQE-K6YH6CIqhHEUF84GXDk5i-hQ?feat=directlink

My Gas Gas Pampera is the closest thing that I know of (but I have a T-Ride on order).

Not exactly, there's the matter of electric start for one thing.

I'd like to hear some evaluations from those that have used them. It seems to me that a 325 has plenty of power, but I wonder if an ignition with an advance curve would noticeably widen the power band by letting the engine rev higher. That would likely rerduce the need for shifting in a section.

From the 2011 AHRMA rulebook, page 75; 7) Touching both feet to the ground at the same time while astride the machine = 2 points (one dab for each foot).

Can we get a 2011 update on the project?

I just inspected the clutch on my 199A and found that the clutch plates use no friction material, just steel on steel. They were in pretty good shape so I put it back together with 75wt synthetic gear oil and it works well. I'm just wondering if that is the original type clutch and if there are any special oil recomendations for it. I know you guys will know.

How many degrees of movement does it take to be considered rotation? Does wiggling your toes while dabbing count as multiple dabs?

I can think of 3 cases in recent years that we had a new rider come to one of our events (all middle aged to senior men, all on Gas Gas Pro models) that proclaimed that "Trials is too tough for me" and never came back. I don't know about other clubs but ours could sure use three more members. Also if your easiest line can't be ridden safely on a trail bike then you are eliminating the possibility of new riders trying out the sport before they invest in, or can afford, a Trials bike. I did not marshall any of the above mentioned events. When setting up sections, if I can't clean the novice line in two trys on my XR 250, I change it so I can. Then I put in a beginner line that's easier yet, I call it "Novice B". I advertise the Novice B class as being suitable for first time riders, trail bikes and small wheel Trials bikes. When a new rider shows up that has substantial off road experience with a Trials bike I recommend that they skip the Novice B class and start in the Novice class.

I just installed a two stage throttle body on my 4rt. I loaded a map called "zog 3" into mode 2 and left the standard map in mode 1 (07RTL). I am looking for a softer hit for intermediate level riding by an old guy. I just test rode it today and the 2 modes are so close that I'm not completely confident that I got the milder map loaded, although when I hit the "data read" button it says I did. Does anyone have experience with these two maps and can you confirm that the percieved difference is very, very, subtle? They look quite different on the graphs. I'm also confused by statements that the program can only read the last map loaded. Does that mean that if I select mode 1 and "data read" that it will read mode 2 if that is where the last map was loaded? Pleae help, I'm so confused.

I think they're the same. If it takes a different lever than your 4rt it should be good.

Are you guys that are running the Sains map on 250s using the ignition map only, or both fuel and ignition?

Only the reservoir is larger, the bore is the same. The functional difference is the geometry of the lever.

I think the most important thing to worry about is clearance between the tire and the exhaust on the right and the chain tensioner and guard on the left. I agree with your friends who've suggested that you may be overthinking things a bit. I almosted passed beer through my nose when I read the part of your post about looking for a Bultaco service bulletin. Hope to see you in the sections, I'll be on the blue 199.

They would certainly sell more in the U.S., if they imported them. I think a lot of people who aren't hard core Trials people would feel better about buying a Honda.

Here's one for ya http://bozeman.craigslist.org/mcy/2060231125.html

The newer the better, but if you want to ride AHRMA events you have to stop at 1979. Don't ask me why.

Was when?

Don't be a tease now. Where's the photos?
