  1. Honda reliability keep them loosing Dakar every year. Now Yamaha can take 5th from them. On quads is was a shame too. Not to mention moto GP, F1..... Big question: What happened whith HRC? It is a lucky thing?
  2. In need of more ideas to "improve" my bike
  3. Smoke isn't good guide to carburation. Check your spark plug color and motorcycle behavior. 2015 is too young to crank seal problems.
  4. Seeing here on TV and Dakar app
  5. Whitch base settings people recomend me for '15 Sherco tech forks? Coil Preload? Rebound? And the compression end stroke adjustment on bottom of the fork? I'm a 70kg benigner trying to hop better.
  6. I've made one to my wife: PU spray foam + fibrglass shell + rubber matt
  7. Tip: Not all manufactures recomend oiling their cables because incompatibility between mineral oil and teflon/nylon used like a hose around the steel cable to reduce friction. If a cable has some drag, maybe it is time to new one.
  8. The difference between standard and bearing is almost nothing. Maybe a better feeling (less play or flex in this area?) than more light pull. In a blind test, probably there is no difference.
  9. 100% sure that I can ride harder and longer than 90% of people around (on motorcycles, mountain bike or on foot). But if I see a way to improve my bike (for almost free!!!), why not try it?
  10. Throttle wheel with bearing Modified stem nut Lever frre play bolt Keihin glove adjustable idler bolt
  11. I've done it this saturday. It improve the throttle a bit. Just a bit

  18. I have more fear from chest mounted than helmet mounted in case of a crash.... It's tough sometimes keep good focus point with chest mounted and all this body positions we use during ride. But chest mounted give better "riding" feeling for who watch the video. Like said above, you must avoid look to the sides with helmet cameras.
  19. I missed two companies. Nobody even mentioned new TRS and returning GasGas.
  20. My problem with this end tube bearing is because the system is exposed in case of a fall. And the aluminium throttle tube can bend and stick open. With a lathe at home, I can give the throttle wheel a try spending almost nothing. If results aren't good due debris on ball bearing, I can try a bronze bushing like my enduro.
  21. I agree but not 100% shure. In my gasgas enduro there a bronze bushing in this place. (Domino too) On my trials is only plastic/plastic contact.
  22. Have seen this Domino throttle wheel on net. Have someone tried one? Any improvement?
