Is the ordinary '06 125 Pro okay? Just got one last week.
-
If I am way back in the queue I always switch my engine off. More so for saving fuel, because sometimes it is a long way back to the van. I think it is the kids that are the most culprits. They love to sit their really reving the engine to see who can make the most smoke. Like it has been said, just ask the person if they would mind switching off till the guy in front has gone through the section, I think most people would do so. Another thing that annoys me is when someone in front spins the back wheel and causes mud, etc. to fly up in your face. They never apologise. May be I am always in the wrong place at the wrong time. Also, I don't know how to do it so I can't get my own back.

After trying all the bikes if I had to change from my GG it would probably be a Sherco. But for the time being I am sticking with the best. Roll on the weekend.

I ride a an 03 125 GG and it is great. I have tried all the others (friends bikes) but still keep returning to my little yellow wonder. A friend of my who's son rides a Sherco keeps making horrible remarks about how crap GG's are, but he has had to pull out of about three or four trials because his bike has broken down. I have never not finished a trial because of bike problems, just rider problems!

Try buying a size bigger and then maybe they wouldn't be so tight

Kinell, the lad you were talking about - Josh 125 GG - I think that might be Josh Brain from the Isle of Man. He's not a bad little rider is he? He's 11 I think. I saw him on some of Andy's pictures so I assume that who you are talking about.

Thanks guys for all your help. TooFastTim, like the picture. Will show it to my other half and see what he thinks. Bit cheaper than the YOU HAVE USED WORDS OR A PHRASE WHICH ARE NOT PERMITTED ON THIS WEBSITE. PLEASE DELETE YOUR POST/TOPIC. DO NOT TRY TO CIRCUMVENT THE FILTERS IN PLACE ON THIS WEBSITE product, but I get the feeling he will go with the YOU HAVE USED WORDS OR A PHRASE WHICH ARE NOT PERMITTED ON THIS WEBSITE. PLEASE DELETE YOUR POST/TOPIC. DO NOT TRY TO CIRCUMVENT THE FILTERS IN PLACE ON THIS WEBSITE all the same. Has anyone used the bike mounts from YOU HAVE USED WORDS OR A PHRASE WHICH ARE NOT PERMITTED ON THIS WEBSITE. PLEASE DELETE YOUR POST/TOPIC. DO NOT TRY TO CIRCUMVENT THE FILTERS IN PLACE ON THIS WEBSITE? If so, what are they like?

Thanks, didn't realise. Have email them as well.

Does anyone know where I could get some bike mounts to use in our Transit van to transport three bikes. They are needed to stop the bikes rolling around and would be used in conjunction with tie downs. Yommee Products do some, but their telephone number is out of service at the moment. Thanks in advance for your help.

My husband and daughter have got theirs, but I haven't got mine yet. Posted them all at the same time as well.

My daughter has the GG 70 and thinks it's great. We started her on this bike last March and were a bit worried at first as she had never ridden a motorbike before, as this bike is the same size, frame wise, as my GG 125. The 50 would have been too small, she was 9 (almost 10) at the time. Over the year she has really progressed and there will be no need to upgrade her for a while yet, she's getting along nicely on the 70.

I try to ride the easy route but I find them quite hard. There doesn't seem to be any happy medium.

Similar think happened to my daughter over Christmas. We had entered the annual Fun Trial (finally an easy trial she could have a good stab at). She cleaned Section 1 and just started Section 2 and slipped in the mud and went down. Not very hard, but the handle bars (Hebo) snapped completely, just held on by the clutch cables. She was really upset, because like I said it was one trial she would have been able to complete and get a good mark. Replaced them with Renthals, hope these will be okay.
