  1. Hi your bike doesn`t use engine oil. Just gear oil.
  2. They all go a bit noisy/rattley on the top end bud.
  3. Try fitting a good quality rim band, if you do it properly you can go back to how the factory intended
  4. Don`t I feel daft now though?
  5. Insure it bud. Welcome back.
  6. Hi Lee, Eddie used to ride pro. Google him bud. Amazing rider. That`s why he would change his tire after only four trials.
  7. Hi toetoe, as Eddie says no scrutineering at local trials that I have ever seen. Did you get your transport sorted yet ? Riding them on the road destroys them so so quickly.
  8. Hi Dusty, why not stick a reminder in your phone ? They wont be able so send them until the second anyway so you might as well do as bilks said and ring them first. You`ll probably get them faster if you talk to them as they`ll post them right away as opposed to going through lots of orders before getting to yours. You never know. Good luck.
  9. Confused. Couldn't you just look at the old one ? Are you just showing us your new part ?
  10. Totally confused now ! Is it Taff or Taffe ?
  11. Sorry to hear about your loss. Any pics or fame/engine numbers ?
  12. I have a nissan Pathfinder and tried down this route. I took my car to the guy who fitted the tow bar to get him to put the bike rack and tow on together but he refused saying that it would be illegal and I wouldn't be insured in the event of an accident. He said that yes my car could easily handle the weight of my bike plus single bike trailer with a bike on but the possibility of carrying a heavier trailer whenever I like stopped him from legally fitting them both at the same time. My advice would be to buy a triple trailer and sell the rack. I'm in the UK too !
  13. Have you done any trials yet ? Try practicing balancing whilst waiting in the cue after you`ve walked the section of course, don`t know why but I find it easier when I`m all warmed up after doing a couple of sections. Also there is normally an incline knocking about too just to mix it up a bit. Good luck.
  14. You might here the odd snigger when you land on your backside or go over the bars but someone will all ways give you a hand to get right side up. Funnily they nearly all ways pick the bike up first, love it
  15. Put one on my 290 Sherco, no problems at all.
  16. Yeah what guys said, other than that don`t know what you mean !
  17. Try a couple of bananas and lots of water before and water during the trials. Dehydration can mess up your concentration it messes up mine. On another note I was observing this weekend ( for the first time ) and was amazed at how many riders didn`t walk the section properly ! Eighty percent checked the first time, twenty percent checked the second time then only one or two bothered the third and fourth time. Standing watching daft dabs because of rocks and branches moving about plus ground degradation from all the riders ! I am defiantly going to be checking every lap from now on as I am guilty of this myself. Having another look at a section also allows for a small break, especially for those of us who aren`t as fit as we used to be. All those silly dabs add up.
