    It`s supposed to be centered. I do not recall the older bikes using hex heads, but all the pictures the bikes have the disc guards on. Maybe need to find another to have a good look at.

    Take a look at its physical appearance. It`s not flat like a trials tire. Which means less traction and they can rub easily as the knobs stick out at a strange angle.

    Watch this whole clip. This little Gal has more skills than most today. From the Joan Crawford show 1965. https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=VQBbHzypBro

    You actually need the titanium header pipe also.

    Click on the Sherco forum and try the pinned link.

    Just connect to your car or a charger.

    Sharply with the clutch pulled in or just trying to give this beast too much too fast.

    The first time I saw the water trick was Tommi Avilla start a brand new bike out of the crate. Once started he did the water trick on the brakes. He did a trials school for the weekend. That was all he did to the bike. It ran like **** since he never jetted it, but he rode rocks we only dreamed could be ridden. Been a believer in the water trick ever since. Good enough for a world champ, and it has always worked for me.

    Brian, do not buy one for your new bike. That is NOT a trials tire. Might work on a small trail bike.

    Never saw Dougie with bar risers. Ride it.

    Depends on the club. Only a dozen or more can actually do this well in this country. Not only is this hard, but incredibly dangerous when applied to reality.

    Dad of two give it a rest. I`ve made more money on the Pro motor than any other bike ever. Some of us need the work. Buy a Pro, It rides great and gives me something to look forward to!

    What`s funny is the other top 5 riders in the world are watching Bou and wondering the same thing. Try this one!

    That floater to the tire was awesome!

    I think you are confused with Mark Colomer. Did he not have several transmissions lock up on the prototype and finally quit? Maybe start having dreams about breaking the bars. That`s the worst nightmare of every serious trials rider! Ha! Ha!

    That` a big boy with modern skills.

    A trials bicycle would be the training tool.

    Four pots have been done before. Most brakes work fine from the factory. You bought a bike which the brakes worked poorly. On the other hand trials bikes are a very small market, and most riders are by nature cheap! Good luck on the rebuild. Just for your info when the Formula brakes came out, most riders swapped the brakes off the old bike. Some did that several years in a row!

    Well at this point I would strip and clean the whole system. Tear the caliper apart and the master cylinder.

    It is a bit of a mystery. On the modern bikes we go larger at altitude. It`s been this way awhile. Although 7000ft is not real high. It has to due with atmospheric pressure, totally backwards of reason. The TK was a strange cab though.

    You would be better off with training videos.

    I`m one of the honorary founders of The Selfish *******s Club. All of our members put motorcycles and trials before anything else. I have had several changes of occupations through the years, but putting riding before anything else is what I have done the best!

    Try this http://www.trialspartsusa.com/ everything you need is here and Jim is the Gas Gas parts distributer. Pretty basic bike. The power is smooth because we actually turn in trials.

    If you are talking about a purpose built engine design it would be Fantic. They had the first quick revving motor. The trials oriented engineering with the shift shaft high out of the way (Why no other manufacturer has done this is beyond me) and the friendly forward kicking.
