I agree it is nearly as annoying as the idiots that spend all Sunday morning with a petrol strimmer. I am sure we will get used to it in time. Expand I've been told the exact sound is often dictated by the controller, so it may well vary ... I seem to remember the early EMs had a pleasing non-whiny sound to them. As for the strimmer comparison, they're far far quieter so you could always drown out the sound of the bike by playing a little music while you ride Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your misunderstanding of the difference between respiration (breathing is not respiration, plants do not breathe at all) and photosynthesis is excusable to some extent, but wrong nevertheless. Expand You need to retake that Olevel biology test, or sack your teacher! Plants DO breathe CO2, they even have mouths/pores, called stomata, taken from the greek for MOUTH 'stoma'. They are all over the surface of leaves. So get your facts right before correcting other people. As for your views on global warming, I'm not even going to try and remove your head from the sand its buried in.

sectionone Posted August 9, 2019 Report Share Posted August 9, 2019 I have a feeling that Torrot is going to take the TXT-E with them when they split with Gas Gas. https://magazine.cyclenews.com/i/1151987-cycle-news-2019-issue-31-august-6/42?m4= 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cascao Posted November 16, 2019 Report Share Posted November 16, 2019 In the future I see a GasGas TXT and a GasGas tpi... Or....GasGas enduro line will fade off. (Replaced by red ktm) And they will keep the trials line. Best scenario will we see gasgas: With money to invest in trials improvement and better quality and an enduro bike to help dealers business profitable. If KTM choose to sell an orange TXT it will be the dead for most gasgas dealers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sherco70 Posted November 16, 2019 Report Share Posted November 16, 2019 Staying alive in business goes many directions. Seem to be choice of staying small and solvent or depend on developing lots of products to expand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2stroke4stroke Posted November 19, 2019 Report Share Posted November 19, 2019 I see they've announced teams for MX, enduro and rally with Taddy Blazusiak and Laia Sanz being mentioned. The announcement is silent on trials, possibly as it is a current endeavour, but I'm sure fans will be keenly awaiting news on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
