Had the same happen to me twice. The first time the fuel filter was partially blocked, put a new one in sorted. Second time different bike, the fuel tank breather on the cap was blocked by nipping of the pipe between tank and frame ! It was routed wrongly !
Mate, I made the mistake of thinking that bigger is better when I first started and also bought a 290 sherco.
Huge mistake, far too much power.
I now ride a 250 gas gas, spot on for a beginner.
I also have a huge bike history.
Hi guys, I`m planning on going to the Tweed Valley Trial on Sunday and was wondering what to expect compared to the north east trials.
I normally ride the easy route, but I have been told that their trials are easier. Not sure if that person was pulling my leg or not.
Anyone had any experience of both ?
Pop it off and give it a good clean. Check fir crud under the rubbers. Push the piston back to make sure it is working properly. Sounds like it just needs some tlc. Good luck.
P.S. Are you going to the trial on the ninth ? I think it`s a Tweed valley trial. It`ll be my first and last this year due to illness. Might see you there. Message me if you fancy going and want a buddy to ride with.
No dadof2, i'm not a TIG welder but I watched a bloke weld mine no bother at all !
Just thought I would pass on the info to try and help a fellow trialist.
Only trying to be helpful.
Thought that was point of this site.
Apologies if it came across as anything else.
