  1. I stand corrected Steve. the 1.6L ecoboost is available for the Canada market transit connect. --Biff PS PM you my address
  2. I think you have a transit and not the connect. We dont sell the turbo connect here in us or canada. I like them both and wholly cow they hold their value. Yes a connect can fit two trials bikes. I have used my gasgas and the ms scorpa for some capacity tests recently here in dearborn. If you get the touch screen you dont know me. --Biff
  3. Ha good one. Several years back a rider of an old bsa in our club asked for some fuel. Initially I said sure! Then I hesitated and said wait it's two stroke. He said no problem it will work. He then proceeded to pull some plugs from the engine of his truck. I asked what he was doing and he indicated that when it fouled a plug he would just swap one of these in. He say an it makes the truck run funny for a few miles but they will clean up... --Biff
  4. We "Brexited" July 4th 1776 and never looked back. --Biff
  5. Litterally only read this topic just to see what he would say. Seems that its just a status update.... Thanks for making the pound a bit weak for a bit. We have parts on the way now.... --Biff
  6. Just talked to the Neiders and apparently the ES line had its own markers. I will censor their comments towards the enjoyment level. --Biff
  7. Sooo looking at the expert scores in comparison to the ES scores on Sunday i can't seem to pinpoint which ES sections rode EX if any. I also heard from Quinns minder and it was just too tough. He indicated that he was surprised the twinshockers could make it around the loop. --Biff
  8. Yet AHRMA continues to have trials year after. I agree that AHRMA could use a class adjustment. What's great about AHRMA is that it exposes different riders from different disciplines to the sport of trials and trials riders to other sports. What stinks about AHRMA is lack of class diversityband expansion along with the cost. If itsa could organize the other disciplines with the passion they have for trials then it would be ideal but it's not that way. There is no best case here and calling one worse than the other doesn't do either one any good. Hope both the AHRMA and ITSA riders have fun in their events. --Biff
  9. ben you have an issue for sure. but by touch other than the fan not running you wont be able to tell.... jump your fan switch with a piece of wire as a fist step and please dont touch those hot bits more. we dont want to see you hurt. --Biff
  10. ive left my bolt out. im on the clutch alot so i dont worry about the pack pushing the top hat back. that would be my only concern. makes for an unpredictable clutch pull. --Biff
  11. Are you referring to the cylinder head or cylinder? --Biff
  12. ive been riding over 30 years and have had many of bikes and i personally love this transmission. doesnt shift hreat but its super ingenious in its workings. that feeling is because it is a two speed rear end with no synchro. --Biff
  13. Watched it last night on prime... Now i know that the three amigos version was scripted but it wast forced. American top gear is scripted and predictable. This new top gear is more of the same. Its sad but it appears that if this version continues it will just be more slapstick dribble... My pick for American top gear if it ever gets redone is 1. Leno (cause natural car guy) 2. Danny Diveto (cause just an odd ball) 3. Anthony Bordain (cause he can paint a very clarson like picture without forcing it down your throat) I might get shot for my recommendation but that would be my humble opinion. If you were to recast UK top gear who would you pick? --Biff
  14. I use ODI Ruffian grips with bar ends. I apply 3M Super 77 on the bar and grip. Then I wire them at the outside and inside to keep dirt from migrating under when i fall. Not if I fall just when. --Biff
  15. I rode his TRS. I liked it a lot. Felt like my gasgas but smoother. I didn't put it through the paces too hard but i think i would like a little more pop. Gearing was also different being a 5 speed. In Tennessee we got the whole sales pitch from Jim Snell and many of the things on the bike were done with thought. My first observation was that rear fender and how high it humps up but its explained as to why its like that. I am not going to run out and change but when the time comes its high on my list. --Biff
  16. Yea i rode stu's in Florida and i was super light. He has the hook up. --Biff
  17. Yes it was a bit sureal being at ttc with no rain. the traction was amazing which isnt usually the case. it didnt take much for you to lose a place ir two with dumb mistakes. all in all it was a fun weekend with not a lot of humidity. --biff
  18. welp pat won. clean day!!!! marc got his five for grooming and putt got 6. dry and awesome traction day. --Biff
  19. So some breaking news here. Martina and I were on our second loop and Pat come mxing by us on section four obviously on his second loop as well. He had a clean of course and right behind him was and out of breath frexia. later we show up to section ten and were told that frexias minder did some rock moving and it cost him a five. these two will no doubt finish before we do. off for loop three and more dumb dabs. --Biff
  20. yep we made it. we were both inconsistent as heck but we survived inscathed. roper jr was putts minder. its was a really good event. nothing impossible for any class and it didnt scare the wits out of you. pat had an awesome first day but a screwup on the last loop second day threw it away. it wasone of those every dab counts sorta days. --biff
  21. Oh dear.... Yea well once she gets to see the fun she might turn around. Here are some talking points: 1. if i crash its very very slow 2. yamaha made a ton of genrric parts back then so its cheap 3. i have no idea who this biff guy is. dont believe what you see on the Internet. 4. vintage bikes appreciate with age and trophies. so this is a positive thing --Biff ps. best of luck and have fun
  22. So we renamed it the four seasons trials. it was sunny it snowed then sunny then warm then more snow..... gotta love michigan... or so they say. on a positive note we had a cool new novice rider and his brother (i think). they showed up in the smagical van!!! WTF im thinking.... well as it turns out its Phils inlaws. Royalty in our little world. Then Phil, the Mrs and her family came and checked out the event. very very cool to have a Smage show up at a local event. Welp it was a struggle but thats where Bent fenders excels in bad weather.... Its on to Florida when Fanticmatze shows up on wensday. Then a week of me being a hippy in the gulf while she is scared of sharks and such. see you all out there!!! --Biff
  23. Sooo bentfenders is putting on yet another great event this season. Stop on by the lovely Flint Michigan area for a fun day of Trials. Water is free due to recent events. http://www.motatrials.com/ --Biff
