Side note: Zippy was not piloting said trials quad at the time. Team WGASA member Snickers was the "adventurous soul" for that. Zippy took the role of inebriated observer

Why not just drill the mounting holes and cut the teeth and the little chamfer thingies at the teeth and call it good?
Solid piece, no recesses, no big holes at the recess spots. Just a flat sprocket, and then put a sticker on it with a kick ass design.
When making the sprocket the entire piece of alluminum is purchased, whether it is turned into little shavings or not.
Less time machining = cheaper
Stickers = cheap(ish) in bulk.

You got a good story to go along with that break??

HAHAHAAHAHAHHA. Freekin' AWESOME

I walked my lazy butt into the garage and looked at my frame number
Yours is VTRGG300203030072 Mine is VTRGG30020403xxxx
So would the number suggest GG300 made Febuary 03 of 2003 and yours is number 72 to come off the production line?
Just curious what all those numbers mean
Also stamped in the cylinder next to exhaust port on clutch lever side is GG30

Hey Ted,
I are doing good.
4RT does look nice................just does not fit what I desire

I have a 2003 TXT PRO 300. It has blue plastics.
As far as I understand how this all worked out is this.
2002 - Pro engine introduced 125, 200, 250, 280
2003 - Pro engine tweeked for reliability and 300 added at some point in the year
2004 - 300 Officially released with silver plastics etc.. and some fanfare.
If I am incorrect, someone will correct it.
OH and if you would like to look at pics of different years
http://gasgasmuseum.com/
seems as though the museum site is currently having difficulties. I am unable to click anything or nivigate on that site.

Yep Montesa has been a Honda with Montesa stickers for years.
But maybe with the "name change" we could see Honda 4RT Trials bikes in the USA Honda dealerships????
(It would be good for the sport but I still won't buy one of those overpriced heavy lumps)

Looks like a fun place to ride. Remember the MOTA season starts April 26&27!!!
Be an AMA member and come out and have some fun........
Also let me or Biffsgasgas know when you are ready to make a trip out to ride/crash with us.

I just wait for all the video buffs to complain that all you can hear is the electric motor whine, and then say that even Dubstep music would be an improvement.
-
I believe they are low on members, also attendance to the events have been dropping off. Which is something I don't understand. The events are always fun, they do a good job with the property they have available. The new Wardsville property was AWESOME, the property owner is a great guy, would hang around the campfire with us, had a power washer set up for us to use....
and another thing to consider. The Windsor group crosses the border multiple times to attend the other MOTA events. It is only polite if the rest of MOTA crosses the border 2 times/ (once for 2 day event) per year and support the Windsor club.
OK Rant over..............
-
Unfortunately the Windsor Motorcycle Club will not be hosting an event this season. We all hope that the club is able to return next year. I have always had a good time at the past events. Friendly people, challenging sections, just a good day out.
On edit: (so if you wish to see me ride around showing off my pasty, hairy, flabby legs with my fashionable and protective riding shorts, you will need to travel to Michigan or Indiana. I know that is one heck of a motivator isn't it?)
-
I have achieved the desired reaction!
This year I am considering wearing a trials thong.

Not sure how to get the date of manufacture from the VIN, but http://gasgasmuseum.com/ may give you a good idea of what year it is by looking at the pictures. Just click on a year and take a look.
-
I completely avoid any of the problems associated with pant legs by wearing shorts. They are comfortable, roomy, offer full range of motion, plenty of ventilation on those really warm days and really show off my hairy, pasty, flabby legs that drive the ladies wild.

Make the videos for your own satisfaction. If you like the music than put it in there. If I don't like the music I simply watch with the volume off. Good videos/camera angles etc..
All the "older"/"established" riders please remember that these young gentlemen are just that, young. This statement is not meant for anyone to not critique the video. Especially since the young men actually ask to have the video critiqued. But the reason I say remember they are young is because these videos are not necessarily meant for the "older/established" audieance, they will show these videos to their friends etc.... and that music may be what gets others their age to keep watching the video. and the more youngsters that watch the better the chance they will want to ride.
-
Looks like you had a blast and a Great place to ride
-
Your Bio says Canada...........sorry to say sir, but Spring does not arrive in that particular part of the world.
-
Great!!!!! Gotta get the bike set to you, not you set to the bike.
Get comfortable and have fun

I can tell the future!!!!!

bigmark1972 I have sent you a Personal Message (PM).

MURICA!!!

Having an audience is half the fun!
Don't worry too much about not being "bike fit" very few of us have actually practiced since about November.
The season runs through beginning of October so you have plenty of time to come to an event. If you would like just show up at one and be a spectator and see how MOTA operates.
We have many classes to choose from, basic descriptions
Beginner - Find your way from start gate to end gate
Novice - Same as beginner with some markers to go over a small log or two and a turn or two
Intermediate - More/tighter turns, another log or larger log, turn on hill
Senior - rides the Intermediate line
Sportsman - harder half of Intermediate and easier half of Advanced
Advanced - bigger obstacles, tighter turns (hopping is helpful but not necessary) plenty of run up and run out for obstacles
Expert - BIG stuff, tight as hell turns, hopping needed, no run up/run out. basically "SCREW EM! they are riding the hardest class"
-
You could just try taller rise bars as well, also make sure the width of your bars is correct. Too wide and your upper body will actually move forward closer to the bars.
