slapshot 3

I need one of these....... decent and clever bit of engineering that!!

I always feel it's right to give young chaps the proper start in life and help them appreciate the finer things........

Can't see if this has graced Kenny yet.... Paddy is passing by Mick

Cheeky ****....;-) anyway, that guy had way more hair than me. Take a look at one of the other vids on there...scary stuff!!

I suggestyou may have a bigger problem, that Mayonnaise is probably emulsified oil, ie mixed with water which means you have a blown seal or gasket allowing water and oil to mix somewhere in your engine. I'd get that properly checked before you ruin your engine

Slapshot needs to wangle his leave again!!

I think that this thread has run it's distance and with the response direct from John stops the endless hypothesis,analysis and random speculation, thanks John. I'm going to close this thread.

From the outset of these threads you have been ADAMANT in your views however like the rest of us it's pure speculation, no point back tracking now.

So why do you continually spout on that you know??? Deadwood does not have the permissions to delete posts other than his own

Scott piccys online, anyone wants individual copies give me a shout by PM Shaws Gutter Surrender

...........As many times as people want to say it until such times as it's officially announced...END OF!! So unless you happen to be Doug Lampkin or Jake Miller or James Dabill or any other that might be involved in discussion or negotiations you are speculating the same as every one else. Beta Stators - well known problem I've a 02 thats still on it's original. Who makes Beta's stators because it wouldn't be cost effective to them to make there own. That's where the problem lies and yes maybe Beta should have changed them but if they buy a job lot they still have to use them. I suggest there is a similar issue with Carbs..... As others have said Doug and the top riders push these bikes harder and further than we ordinary blokes ever will, they fail, it's just unlucky that Doug's fail at the worst possible moments.....

Duct tape......cheap bondage for decades

Hiya, got one from the bottom of Shaws, not brilliant, not a great day too much water getting into cameras!! Surrender was worse, filter on my lens got so grotty I wasn't getting a clear focus or flash measure.....not happy. Anyway, won't get anything online till I get home, mother's wireless connection speed is garbage, this page has locked three times already!! Other than that it was a magical weekend, the reverse route was, in my opinion, better for spectators, more early groups to see all the riders through in good time. It also allowed movement to later groups in a far more civilised fashion okay it was busy around By Pass but not like the other way. The two rat runs back into Marske eased the traffic as well.....Big Success for me. Other than the cameras issues...own fault but there we go, it was brilliant. Even the weather can't dampen the excitement and tension The Scott can create, it really is superb. Every rider needs applause for their efforts no matter where they finished or didn't finish. Michael looked superbly quick all day and setting quickest time showed that but it's only half the show. Dibs had the speed but more than last year he appeared far more controlled in the sections and the results showed that, nice one! The auction and presentation were great as well and as always, nothing could really be predicted and based on last year when Graham nudged Dibs out the way on observation. Great night, great weekend......roll on 2011.

Lurchio I suspect I'll have something from the bottom of Shaws Gutter but couldn't get the pics downloaded before dinner last night cos Mrs Slapshot was too busy on Treasure sodding Island!!! Heading home now (she's driving I've got a hangover) will let you know

Thought the rule was to take the mickey out of Der Moffster!!

Ham is obviously hoping his prophets will go through the roof.

Problem is Neo is that there is limited information out there about the bikes therefore all we can do is speculate!!

Bloody hell..... don't jinx things

Chancer......

Mr Kramit...There has been something deleted already and additionally Borus has some form in terms of advertising on the forums as he well knows. Neutral question, perhaps but it could also be a leading question. Borus has a vested interest in anything that's said about any of the marques he imports either positive or negative so taking his history on here and he opens a thread about a new bike he's about to start importing rings a few alarm bells. Don't forget there's more happens on here than what you see. Clueless? I've been called worse, I can cope.

Borus...... As the prospective/agreed importer of Ossa into Canada, please respect the rules regarding advertising on the forums. Any posts you make in the Ossa/Xpa threads could be deemed as advertising by some. We've been here before with Xipsa/Xpa, your posts will be watched.

Unlike other manufacturers I think Ossa are doing what they can to move the boundaries of what we see as a trials bike. What huge steps forward have we seen since the 4RT, since Beta brought out the frame on the Zero since evolved through the Gara, Techno, Rev and now Evo ranges. Every manufacturer decelops their bikes every year in small iterative steps because to make a huge engineering step forward costs money and there is the fear they will not recoup that outlay. I want to wait and see what happens with Ossa before commenting.
