the addict

He'll appreciate that one mate keep um coming lads, that Ossa thread is hot on our heels

Can't ever remember thinking I'd consider buying a bike even it was ****e to ride but this is different, wow what a job they,ve done should get an award or something

Looking at it and the work thats gone into everything it will have to be 6-7k I think, its a work of art and I think even at that they will sell some. Will give Kempy a call tomoz about finance deals One of the many things I love about the Mont is the FI, cant't wait to hear how it performs

Gerty's number might just be up next year more I look at the Ossa, is there any price info? I recon if it was at BVM's test day they'd need to have 20 of these there and for a week, thats got to be the best looking bike I,ve ever seen I can almost hear the creaking of the Legends wallet as I type

Stunning

Have to admit Andrew I've not been to a WCT for many years now, seen plenty of video footage though but thats about the limit of my effort due to the circus it has become. The top lads can do the big stuff day in day out, they love it, bigger the section more advantage they have over the lesser lights in the sport, big/dangerous seems to equate to hard/difficult these past years and its not for the top guys, they just eat it up. Yes costs must be horrendous to travel over the world when you already have a good idea you'll probably not get through the majority of the sections let alone have the odd clean, theres very little money in trials compared to other motosports, and to me unless you get right to the top not much incentive to try financially . If we are to increase WTC entries the sections need to be less servere and dangerous, get them back to more traditional type sections and venues so a countries top 20 plus riders can have a good go at everything rather than crashing and riding a quarter of every section. If I had a good think maybe I could come up with another sport that you can compete in but have no chance of completing, pretty much all sports whether Roadracing, Marathons, Darts etc etc you can compete and complete the event even if slow or last place, in Trials you can't. Why all these big sections? is that what has increased Trials crowds over the years and participation in the sport? don't think so, I for one would rather go and watch a Trial like the SSDT than a world round any day, I can relate to the sections and skills. The top lads now have skills that only the few can ever master, the sport doesn,t offer the rewards for most to make the effort to get to the top and the journey will be costly and painfull even if they try. My hope is we can return the WTC back to 100 riders, juniors riding the same sections as the seniors, one lap of 40 sections, no minders and more traditional trials locations and sections that a countries top 20 could be happy with having an entry put in and knowing they'll get round but a tough day.

Hi Dave, I found the switch from tarmac to mud very quick and easy at Mallory Park most weeks good luck

I missed the 05 rev3, had an 04 and 06 though, there is a huge amount of info on the rev3's in the Beta forum, the carb ones will be the most usefull. Repacking the silencer is essential on the bike and an easy job to do, as well as adjusting cleaning the carb etc. I loved Boyesen reeds in my rev3's rather than the standard ones. The carb will be a **** to get back on if the previous owner has'nt swapped the airbox boot around, when you take it off next time see if the smaller bore is attached to the air box or carb, standard is small goes to the carb, swap it so the small goes to the airbox, far easier to get it back on the carb when refitting

haha, sorry buddy could'nt resist not everyone but quite a few, choice is yours, expensive stuff in shiney bottles or cheap stuff (ATF) in big ugly bottle and works better

Mark, bit unusual for a Sherco clutch to work ok from cold, they normally dont work at all for first 2 metres or so, have you played about with the lever adjuster to see if it helps? bit excessive swapping the oil every trial but fair play, 20 hours is fine (200 hours for a Mont though)

Previous Rev 3 link mate

Numpty mate

Some other users will have a better idea of whats best to use in the JTX,

cant remember what i used in my gassers but imagine light gear oil would be fine, have a look at the site sponsors on here, all have web sites to buy from

ATF Dexronlll, cheap and you can get it anywhere just about, swap it every 20 hours or so, works great in Rev 3's

Nothing wrong with Sherco or gasser, Gasser might be more maintenance but both very good bikes. Have a go on a 200 Beta if you ever see one, I came close to buying one last month, great little bikes to learn on. You will be surprised how much smaller an 06 bike is to the 320 and lighter, good luck and if you can blag a few rides on all the models better still

Jordi, did'nt say they did? yes people start as they are interested in bikes, Jo Public are always amazed at how modern Trials riders ride and what they do. I don't beleive for one minute the hopping puts their initial interest off the sport at all, moving to the B route can take years and theres no need to hop on the C route where they will start and very little need on the B route once they,ve progressed. Our young riders want to emulate the top lads and what they do, kill the current rules and as I said we will loose alot of current youth within the next year I,m sure of it. Yes some will come back and new will still come in but I think the best way to go is to ban minders and helpers in the sections - stop the big stuff that the top lads p*** anyway and return to more tricky stuff we had years ago.

The 320tx is big lazy beast, you can just about ride any section in any gear, I had one and it did my riding no good at all to be honest. The 06 rev3 250 is a good buy but make sure its had a recent stator change and don't worry if its leaking petrol,tiz normal for the rev3 You will find a modern 270/290 a right handfull and more than likely go backwards in your riding or sell it within a couple of months.

As above, the magnetic plugs always collect this, its what its for,

Talked to a couple of lads yesterday and they said about the WTC, they were not happy with going non stop, they love hopping about thats how they,ve been brought up and changing will without doubt loose a certain generation of lads/lasses to the sport. I,m glad it wont be non stop next year and hope the ACU will follow along with the Novogars, Trials is a small sport,always has been always will be,going non stop will have zero impact on getting more into it,promotion does that not rule changes. If they want more riders in the WTC get rid of the minders and the massive steps only the few dare have a go at,

Did hear talk yesterday at the trial that the move to non stop is not going to happen in WTC, is that correct?

Kenny the rooster just gets better, thanks lads
