Pol Tarres To Ride?

Featured Replies

Spanish rumour mill in full flow, Poll Tarres to leave Jotagas, possibly for Montesa.

No prizes for guessing where that came from. Thought he might have given up on the rumourmongering after Dibs tore him a new one for spreading rumours, but clearly not :rolleyes:

Steve Saunders is at/just returned from the Jotagas factory with Ross. They need an adult rider for the Wc next year. There's a fair chance there might be an announcement soon

They dont need a rider before the bike is ready thats where ossa went wrong with fajardo?

A decent wtc rider will cost money have jotagas (or any of them for that matter) got that before the're ready and selling more than a handful?

No Dabs , your not reading me right. Im suggesting that Ross might sign up for the World rounds next year , NOT someone like Fajardo who obviously will be expensive. So if the announcment does come out , they are not going wrong like Ossa as its a great opportunity for Ross and wont cost Jotagas the earth as Ross is starting out on the World stage.

Secondly you say "before the bike is ready". The bike is ready. Pol Tarres hasnt had problems has he?

I havent had problems with my 2013. Some 2012 models had problems, but that was the first year of production and they say theyre fixed . Ive got every reason to believe them , as i havent had a single problem and neither have a couple of mates who own them. So last seasons news , is exactly that . Im not aware of 2013 bike customers who've had problems , are you?

Your right on them selling only a handful though , but that is because theyre sending a large proportion of the production to Japan.The importer here wants more for waiting customers for 250's etc.

Theyre a long way off, no doubt making it all pay. Given that Pol will be travelling to the WC anyway, the committed financial backer and the Spanish federation helping the additional cost isnt as huge as it might be.

Like Paco Bulto said " The public follow the chequered flag" and Jotagas will know they need a rider showing the bike in the adult WC.

Have you seen Ross's result from Carlisle? Ross was always there or thereabouts in the youth and juniors but a couple of years out has made his task at the top level almost impossible, he would need to go full time from a year ago to give it a real shot.

i have pm'ed about the other comments.
