  1. I just watched the TdN highlights vid and didn't look like much stop and hop there.... Well now on to indoors and stop allowed....then everyone can decry, how the time limit has ruined indoors all winter!
  2. You mentioned earlier the different countries and their take on No Stop.... Is the UK the most consistent in observing, as they are No Stop except for Super Trial and Sheffield Indoor?
  3. Interesting that Italy allows small plates, but when Enduro GP round is there....it's the only round on the race schedule that requires standard full size motorcycle plate on competition bikes.

    a smoky TR280i

    Bad crank seal on clutch side would be your most likely answer.
  5. I have a friend who is maybe 5"8" and rides and competes his TY350 with the same bars.... I have no idea how he rides it, having taken a short ride on it?
  6. Not sure on anything anymore, except if it takes Fajardo another 9 years to win a world round again.... it isn't happening! He definitely seems more comfortable outdoors, than he did indoors. Conversely Gelabert and Bincaz are definitely not showing their indoor form outdoors! I hope he can back it up tomorrow. Busto is a little off the pace in Japan. It seems being an early starter in Japan was an advantage? We'll see what tomorrow brings and if Farjardo can keep it up at the next round in Andorra..... I'll be suitably impressed!
  7. That is a sweet bike!
  8. I hope Gary holds it together and gets the win!
  9. I can't believe I got a 5 day ban for quoting your post on ADV Rider.  Those old NETRA pics have been around forever and that particular one is pretty tame!  I don't know what you got on that deal, but I figure a quote was worth a warning, not a ban.  I'm done direct quoting anything on there!  Be well and ride safe!

      12 years of posting on forums and never banned - I guess they have never seen the cover of Vanity Fair or watched Naked and afraid on the discovery channel - kind of p****d and feel even worse if it has led to other being banned as well :(.

      Only banned once on TT, for publicly questioning a moderator's summary discipline of a member.  We hit the accept the terms button, so really have no say.  Don't feel bad!  See you on ADV Rider at the end of the week.  I get my hip done tomorrow, so will be wasting time for the next week or so!

      I have my first event of the season  on Sunday but threw my back out on the weekend putting in docks for the local paddling club - also have my first sail boat race of the year tomorrow night so really shouldn't be wasting my time on forums anyways! - Good luck with your hip !!! this getting old thing kind of sucks but better than the alternative :).  

  10. I was hoping GG would be lowering the price in the future, to make it available to more riders. I guess with people not flinching at the high price of the Alta electric MX bike, all the electric trials bikes are going to the high end?
  11. I sweat a lot and safety glasses don't work for me, as they are closer to your face and fog up. I use Scott over the glasses goggles. I don't wear glasses, but they space the lenses further from my face.
  12. It's only an endo.... If you flip over!
  13. http://www.trsmotorcycles.com/TRRS1252018 There is a "ONE" model of the TRS 125. You can see the differences.... carb, shock etc in the spec sheet. I'm guessing with the limited numbers of 125's sold, Jim Snell decided to just bring in the "RR" model this year.
  14. Thank you for the offer! I don't think I'll make those this year. Are you going back next year to TTC for Trials Training Days? I'm planning on next year. I forgot to add... Congratulations on the new bike and enjoy!
  15. Plus one on both! S3 digit levers work best for my old arthritic hands!
  16. I'm right in the same age range and and been riding trials for 2 years. I have owned newer Gas Gas and Scorpa 125's. The newest generation of 125's will do just about anything an aged Novice/Intermediate rider needs to do and I imagine the TRS 125 is right there with them. I had a Yamaha TY175 which is an awesome bike, but a new 125 is so much easier to ride and I sold the TY to concentrate on riding modern trials. I hope to get a ride on a TRS 125 sometime, but my local TRS dealer doesn't plan on having one this season. My '18 Scorpa 125 Factory is everything I want and need right now anyway! Go buy one, you won't regret it!
  17. I love how you always come back to how much you like your wife's GG125! I think you should sell the 4RT and get a 125 of any brand!
  18. I think Yamaha still has a bit of a relationship with Scorpa, even with its new owner Sherco. The very one off TYS250F for the Japanese National Series, has had some Scorpa bits still sprinkled in it.

    Compression Release

    Tryals Shop just had 4 different SY250 in for pre season maintenance. Mike was the importer, and there isn't much he doesn't know about them. I'm sure you have spoken to him. He said this was about the easiest trials bike to start ever, with its long kick lever. You might want to look into your motor a bit more if it is hard to kick?
  20. No place to warm your hands? Check out that giant heat sink under the rear fender! I want one of these, when the have a consumer version!

    Compression Release

    R&D Husky in Australia, used to do this compression release mod to WR360 head. It was from a 2T lawnmower engine.
  22. Surprised to see that TDN still has a Jury, as most FIM events (Including the ISDE) have switched to the simplified Race Control structure.
  23. TRS USA just posted that first 125's are shipped to USA. '18 production models will not have the power valve. Only a limited number of Factory supported 125's in competition, will have the PV engine. They want to test it and refine the mapping for the engine before releasing it.
