  1. A 247 rear will probably be wm3. 4.0 x18 can be either 2 or 3.
  2. They should be marked wm1and wm2 or wm3 on the rear.
  3. I'd be concerned if my plug was like that, is your air filter well oiled ?
  4. What he said ^^^^ Defiantly try a bit more slack in the throttle cable, and try to consciously relax your hands.
  5. Is the timing standard ?
  6. The 200 is generally considered to be an excellent bike, but condition is the most important thing in any purchase.
  7. Few venues are kean on riders washing their bikes at the end.
  8. At a guess, it's a tell tale that you have a failing seal on your water pump.

    gloves

    Mountain bike gloves in last year's colours.
  10. Leven Valley 2 Day was won by Steve Robson on a Montesa and a very original one was being ridden very well by Craig Turpie this year. You might be surprised how good they are 😎
  11. If you are very careful you can shorten the outer cable, which effectively give some slack for the inner.
  12. Definitely go electronic ignition as you will possibly end up replacing most of it anyway. https://www.inmotiontrials.com/?s=Montesa&post_type=product
  13. Much easier to use than goggles, but not as good. If your on a track with rocks getting chucked at you you will be thankful.
  14. Yes, boots always leak, as do sealskins. But you generally end up with warm wet feet .....
  15. Lower leg minor injuries are fairly common, good boots plus shin / knee protection are advisable.
  16. Not sure any of that is true, what are you basing your "guess" on ?
  17. Think your being a bit unfair, the way I'm reading this and the original post from 2017, is ttspud will be scrutininneering the bikes ?
  18. Why wouldn't you have similar ones ? Sprung 2t. Rigid 2t. Up to 200cc. Over 200cc. Gentleman 2t.
  19. 7 sub categories for 4 strokes, 1 for 2 strokes ........
  20. Set up a series , write the rules / restrictions. If there is sufficient interest it will be a success.
  21. Not 100% accurate, unless you buy something really obscure, parts are easily found. Many of the twin shocks are as reliable, possibility moreso, than some modern bikes. Look through the current topics, virtually all modern "reliable " bikes 😎
