guys

I agree on the noise levels of motor sports. ALL motorized sports would bennefit from lower noise levels.

The search function is there to prevent to much topics on the same subject. This is what I found in 5 seconds: http://www.trialscentral.com/forums/topic/49882-brake-disc-movement/?hl=%2Bfloating+%2Bdisc#entry359517

A second hand one maybe? http://www.allensusedtrialsspares.co.uk/# If you weld the two togheter it's more difficult to replace the exhaust packing. The middle section usually also contains packing wool but has to be cut open to replace the wool. Your bike will perform and sound better after replacing the wool in both the middle and the end pipe.

It isn't that simple otherwise the Montesa 4RT wouldn't sell. It's reliable but heavier (thus a little less overall performance) and more expensive than most bikes and still it is loved and bought by many club riders.

I rode the 4 day trial for modern bikes there last year, very good organized and a beautiful area to ride.

That's nice to know, looking forward to when they come to Bilstain in Belgium. I think Maxime Warenghien wil do great then...

Luck.

Are you sure all the bearing lock nuts are in the correct position? And maybe the fork tubes come out of an other (later) model that have a bottom yoke that bends downward towards the bottom fork tube clamping.

That may be partially true, but when things get bad, when failing is almost inevitable, it's often the governments who they turn to for financial support. I think some Trial manufacturers in the 80's, were taken over by the government because otherwise they had to close. In the 80's there was a economical crisis all over Europe, so customers didn't have to much money to spend on an relative expensive hobby like trials, I think thats one of the main reasons why they failed. Governments do contribute (inderect) to the G.N.P. by providing work for private company's, for instance road works etc. And there may be to much regulations but they are there because some company's had terrible work conditions for instance, Just look at the bank crisis: Who gave their employees astronomical bonusses and who invested in crappy stocks? And who did they turn to when they were up **** creek? And in Belgium, lots of MX circuits, for instance one where we held a couple of trials each year, had to close, just because neighbours kept complaining about too much noise, they took there complaints to court and now its closed. This had nothing to do with the government.

Don't ride with a damage like that, you're gonna make it worse, maybe damage other parts of the fork, wheel, brake disc or something else...

Same here on my 2008 4RT but will try 10/44 when chain and sprockets need replacing

What brings a bit more weight and is of benifit to us? - Thicker/longer bash plates (are very popular) - thicker/stronger dog bones - stronger engine mounts - frame pipes that have a thicker wall section so the welds are stronger - and many other things I've mentioned in a previous post such as stronger kick starter mechanism on some brands. But strangely enough nobody had any comment on that statement. I'm not saying bikes have to weigh 5 or 10 kgs more but a little bit more wouldn't hurt us. Just ask the guys who have to buy second hand bikes and who get stuck with frames that are cracked and so on... And of course there will always be bikes that had a very hard life that get damaged no matter how strong you make them, but these are the exceptions that cannot be avoided.

It's never been cheaper to get that real factory look!

Now that's just silly:

I would use the search function, there's already a lot of info on different gear brands

But the Jitsie sprocket isn't made that way is it. Your question was: "Jitsie Sprockets Rip Off?"My answer: No I don't think so. your second statement was:: "How can a sprocket with less machining than ever before cost more than ever before, http://www.trialsuk....d-rear-sprocket Utter nonsense." My answer: The JITSIE sprocket isn't made with less machining I'm sorry I wasn't clear enough. Of course you can get sprockets made in a Chinese sweat shop or with a high speed top of the range machine, that are cheaper, but that wasn't your original question.

I think the myth is exaggerated . I've ridden up muddy climbs where others got stuck or only made it half way. It could have been my lucky day or my technique was spot on for once. Anyway, as usual the bike isn't the largest deciding factor, the rider is.

I use Shell V-Power or alkylate fuel to avoid the crap in normal fuel and to minimise water in the fuel due to ethanol in these fuels. Try the search function for more info on fuels and the maintenance and cleaning of the fuel system.
