And a Hell of a nice guy too.

Yes you should! You need another Evil Knievel bathrobe!

This sounds interesting.

THANK YOU!!!

laird387That last one about recording people in distress, is not too far off. But one young man did something to help http://www.kptv.com/story/29580618/among-people-standing-by-video-taping-woman-trapped-in-burning-car-a-19-year-old-old-steps-in-to-save-her

Don't you be touching his trophy!!!

Do you have a bent disc?

Not showing the bike is part of the marketing/build up to the big unveiling............ create interest by not letting the public see it

And that's how the fight started................ I still don't know why?

When I was a youngen riding a TY80 doing shows and parades with my Dad and Brother we had the same type of set up. This would kill the engine if we fell off, lessening the chance of a spectator being hit. Dad also added an Emergency brake to his Reflex, not exactly sure how it work but there was an electric motor that would pull the rear drum brake arm engaging the rear brake. I think he had a second set of points on the handlebars that would engage if he was separated from the bike. When riding I never even notice having that bit of string on my wrist. (Left side) (Side note: We called ourselves Team Thud...........that sound that is made when the human body contacts the ground after falling off the bike)

But what about the TRS frame?

What? are you rich or something? replace the pads before using pistons to stop. what madness is this?

that newer and therefore better design would explain why the majority of the buying public is so extremely hesitant to purchase the first 2 years production of a new bike.

That horse probably died from laughter with those Stormtroopers trying to hit it...........

I will anxiously await updates via social medias from the comfort of my house and garage.............. Basically I no go.

Not quite proper no stop riding...........they were all covering the clutch. Back when I was a youngen (late 70's early 80's) a surly older gentleman told me "get your fingers off that clutch, once you put it in gear you don't touch the clutch. You just use the throttle" aaahh the good old days

.Did he still not like the price? Looks like he decided not to buy the fuel cap to save some more money

WOO HOO!!! It's great to have the USA represented in World Trials Competition

Yea Biff ya got me, I will own a 2014 300 Pro.............It may end up being in 2024 when I buy it. anyway my main point that got lost in my horrible attempt at a tad bit of humor is: I am very happy with my GasGas and will not be selling it just because the brand is having some troubles. Also if I had the funds and opportunity to purchase a newer GasGas I most definitely would buy one. (2010 or newer has the new round tube frame right?) I too am curious where the contents of the factory have gone to...........

Who said anything about selling? You been talking to Mrs Zippy? sounds like something she would say. Buy newer GasGas as main trials machine and keep the 2003 as a back up/get my friends interested machine.

Does this mean I might be able to upgrade from a 2003 to something much newer at a much lower price than a week ago???????

The 2000 Sherco I once owned the exhaust header pushed on the hose where it connected to water pump. There was an actual flat spot on the hose. Eventually the hose did fail but I believe it failed because of the pinching pressure and wear between the water pump and the header. heat may have been a factor but I don't think it was a major factor. In the pics it looks like your hose is just touching. I think it will be fine.

if you have spilled brake fluid all over the pads and disc, you may want to buy new pads. Pads will have a habit of absorbing the brake fluid. Disc can be spray cleaned with brake cleaner.

I will do my part for SCIENCE!!!!
