If youve got a fancy tank breather take it off, might just be blocked and stopping fuel going into carb, if thats ok check the carb itself is flowing fuel and the floats arnt stuck, all this though assuming you have a spark. Sometimes its tricky to see a spark in the day, best way is to try at night it will soon show.
The real mans way to check if theres a spark is to hold the plug, ease over gently, you'le soon know if its getting power !
It's been on eBay twice over Christmas, there was a spat between the owner and others as there's almost nothing original on the bike and the frame in particular has been changed to an Indian Enfield but retained the original reg, not sure how they got away with that one!
This isn't any secret, the owner seemed honest enough with the description but a couple of folk took umbridge that he was advertising it as a pre-65 bike.
Although its several years since I last rode, I imagine riding a run of the mill, ie. standardish... bike would be extremely hard work and dare I say it a struggle. As the bikes have evolved without doubt the trial must have become harder and although it is always won with a low score I dont think it reflects how difficult it can be.
Another point, people tell me that the " Stars and their shinny bikes" get rides because it is what the knowledgeble crowd want, is it though.
I wonder if people would actually rather see a more standard array of machines climbing pipeline, chuckling, knowing thats what classic trials is all about or a
After announcing he's getting married, a boy tells his pal he'll be wearing the kilt. "And what's the tartan?" asks his mate. "Oh, she'll be wearing a white dress," he replies.
A man takes a pair of shoes back to the shop and complains that there is a lace missing.
"No," argues the assistant, "look at the label - it says Taiwan "
What's the difference between The Rolling Stones and an Aberdeen sheep farmer? The Rolling Stones say: "Hey you, get off of my cloud." And an Aberdeen sheep farmer says: "Hey McLeod, get off of ma ewe."
What about the Scotsman who lost his testicles in a motorcycle accident? The surgeon re-attached them with Bostik.
After retiring, I went to the Social Security office to apply for
Social Security. The woman behind the counter asked me for my driver's license to verify my age. I looked in my pockets and realized I had left my wallet at home.
I told the woman that I was very sorry, but I would have to go home and come back later.
The woman said, 'Unbutton your shirt'.
So I opened my shirt revealing my curly silver hair. She said,
'That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me' and she processed
my
Social Security application.
When I got home, I excitedly told my wife about my experience at
the Social Security office.
She said, 'You should have dropped your pants. You might have
I think having a reserve price costs more in listing fees so pulling it early is an option but doesnt instill much confidence in a seller on Ebay as you know it will happen. Shill bidding is terrible now on Ebay as the user ID's are not shown anymore and as Pete says the feedback system is well unfair
There are two major social networking sites, MySpace and Facebook. Facebook tends to be for a more mature audience and is more restrictive as to content. MySpace tends to be a free for all.
Big John is on Facebook, what other endorsement do you need?
Look, last time I took this advice I spent 3 years chanting Hari Chrishna.
Yeah that's good but there's also a 315R link near the top, just above the 1967 Trial 250 - http://www.apexmotosports.com/montesa%20parts%20book/e-1.htm - that takes you to those pages. Sorry I should have been more specific earlier on. I only realised it was the Apex site when I had a look at my browser history for something else.
Yeah, you have to be very careful of your browser history !
