  3. Motocross!

    in USA Trials

    Posted

    Its funny, I sometimes get the erge to ride MX again, I always enjoyed the sport a lot! So, I'm browsing threw results and see riders from the time period of when I competed in MX, I'm thinking Wow, these guys are still at it! Then today I read where a 40's yr old guy I was friends with back then broke his hip over the weekend. Needs a hip replacment and I would guess at that age dirt biking would be over period! :thumbup:

    I'll stick to my weird looking machine with no seat! :P

    Biketrials, motocross and now I even see videos on mtbreview.com in the forum section. I think it would be cool to have a forum for common club trials riders to place there little vid clips! To watch the Pros is cool, but seeing club riders sruggling would be a hoot! :thumbup:;)

  11. My On-going Battle!

    in Montesa

    Posted

    Keeping a clean airbox/carb! I use filter oil, grease around the the lip of the filter, grease even at the mouth of the airbox lid! But I continue to get dirt in the carb, I always check the boots between carb, cylinder and box to make sure seal is tight! Air box has no cracks seems good.

    I feel like I take all the proper steps in preparing a clean air flow on my 2003 Mont!

    How often do you guys replace your filters, buy new ones?

    We have a TY 175 with a cylinder that is bored out to the max needing a new sleeve

    Are sleeves avaiable here in the US for this machine and how much $ would I be looking at roughly?

    No doubt about it, the TY is a 80cc!

    Would you fellow trials enthusiast happen to know how much the compression should read on TY 80's Engine? :chairfall:

    TY 80, the bike starts and runs but when put in gear you have to rev it up and push off while releasing the clutch to get rolling, once its in the power band, runs great. Is this the way the TY80'S run? The topend sounds tight.

    I would like it to run slow and zippy while in 1st gear, any Ideas? :chairfall:
