  1. Yeah, that looks much easier to get used to, especially on a trials bike with constant clutch and rear brake action. sorry couldn't constrain myself
  2. Keep practicing is the only thing you can do imo. I've been riding bicycles/mountainbikes and motorcycles all my life, no problem switching at all. I also doubt that your thumb would be strong enough to get some decent deceleration. You would need at least a 200 to 250 mm disc or some kind of serious booster, which is impractical.
  3. Nobody said that, just that a lot of people are happy with the original forks
  4. No, the difference of only 4 Molecular Mass M (kg/kmol) is not enough, you need to use Helium of course!
  5. That bike deserves a larger / better picture
  6. Buying a Bultaco will cure that ill for you.
  7. And those who benefit most is organized crime. It's not as innocent as it seems.
  8. Have you tried one with a wire yet? Works fine on my Bultaco (and on my modern bikes)
  9. PSI has got nothing to do with torque. My Bultaco manual (from InMotion) states 12 ft.lbs which is 16 Nm
  10. Search on youtube for the double blip technique
  11. motorcycle riding as an art (with some good music for once ) http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x125dj_indoor-de-toulouse-toni-bou-adam-ra_sport?start=5
  12. I think I understand the theory behind it, but did it make much difference in practice?
  13. At the Belgium event that would have been about 36 paid observers. I don't think FIM is ever going to (be able to) do that.
  14. And what has isaacely won!?
  15. Besides the fact that it looks too damn good to make it dirty? The seat maybe?(Doesn't seem to fit the tank properly) Or is the tank from a previous type? Or the black forks?
  16. If you don't mind "dropping" the cash, why not keep an original or aftermarket (about £60 http://www.jbanyeres.com/en/chasis/97-a.html ) brake line in your tool box in case you need it? A BMW motorcycle dealer in the Netherlands used to have (about 15 years ago) Goodrich or Goodyear (don't know anymore) brake lines and connectors that could be assembled without special tools, but I doubt that a private person would be able to get a hold of them.
  17. It's half way up the sight glass. No drop more.
  18. guys

    2015 Montesa's

    I was hoping for a complete new bike too, but I'm starting to think those rumors were the result of a bad translation of a Spanish ad.
  19. A cell phone so you can call someone to take you home when it's too far to push your bike. http://www.ssdt.org/component/content/article?id=358:handy-hints
