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!!!!

I just leave the fuel in the on position on mine.

All I know is with the 250 Ninja I used to own, I could turn the run/stop switch off, twist the throttle and turn the run/stop switch on would make it produce a really nice BANG!
Sometimes I could time it just right so as I was exiting from under an overpass my buddy would be under the overpass when it would BANG! quite the echo it would have also.
fun times

oops may have been too much ....

Direct quote from the liquidpiston.com website "LiquidPiston’s X Engine is a non-****el rotary embodiment of the company’s innovative High Efficiency Hybrid Cycle (HEHC). The X Engine has few parts and three combustion events per rotor revolution, resulting in tremendous power density."
If you are a W@nker, this engine is not for you.......................

When I mentioned the noise of 4 strokes, I was speaking about motorcycling in general here in the USA.
Not necessarily Trials.
Back to topic,
Does the weight limit really do any good if the riders are just adding weight in the spots they want it, while keeping the bike itself light?
-
And now the 4 strokes are in danger because of noise ........................ ever feel like your damned if you do and damned if you don't?
-
yep responses are swift and full of something.........

It was riding day, you must ride something,...........it may be a bike.............or...........

I believe that would be the salt truck for those of us in the States..........well the Northern States at least. Down South all they use Salt for is seasoning.
So the Texans and Floridians might be wondering why the Northern States want their roads to taste better.

Blue = stays put until you remove with proper tool and some muscle
Red = stays put forever unless heat, muscle and a leverage assisting device is used.

Biffsgasgas has a lanyard on his bike, He is good at planning ahead.
He made up a spare lanyard for anyone that forgot to bring theirs............It had a pink, and girly lanyard made up to hold the magnet.
It is named Nancy

Well if that's what you're into, go ahead.........

I am just impressed that your wife willingly showed an interest in trials and requested to see the videos...........I tell my wife to come watch this, and she says "not that trials stuff again"
Maybe there is something to the suspension thing?
-
At 2 day events free drink does sometimes occur..........
depends on how stupid your friends want you to act..............
-
Also in practice many of us tend to "practice" the bits we enjoy and are good at. example: big hillclimb, big obstacle, etc....
But we tend to forget what caused us to take points at the last event. like that really stupid tight turn in the mud and my front tire washed out..............
So try to have 2 parts to your practice sessions.
Really fun stuff to put a smile on your face
Actual work on techniques that you need to master.

yep
I just watched "On any Sunday - The Next Chapter"
Wonderful film does a great update to the first film. Many great stories and highlights the people involved.
But failed greatly to bring up Trials. there was about 5-10 seconds of a Trials bike, no mention of what the bike was or even that trials is a sport. missed a great opportunity to showcase the skill involved and bring trials to more people.
-
That is how I started riding, My dad would do wheelie turns in a circle with me on the bike in front of him. those were great days
-
I usually look around with a confused look on my face until I realize they are talking to me...............
