TRS make a trials bike that is called the GOLD model which is their BLING version and if my understanding is correct the stuff that konrad put up for you has within its contents an explanation of what the problem is , basically the GOLD version has a fuel tank underside design that will clear the long plug but the standard version of the TRS models needs a short plug because the fuel tank will not fit with the long plug type low comp gold coloured head insert as that version of the bike needs a head insert that uses the short plug , It is mentioned in there somewhere that it is possible to buy an ultra low profile rubber plug cap to fit the HT lead that means you can use the normal long type plug and then the standard version models fuel tank will fit properly. Its probably best if you go back and read the whole of the thread that konrad sent you and check what every post says.

scorpaian Posted 21 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 21 hours ago Tr1al I've got a good anodised head insert with long plug and orange champion suppressor cap. The tank fits no probs, v difficult to remove suppressor cap though, I have done it but not easy. I ended up lifting tank up to re fit. I think I'll just use normal NGK long reach plugs! The bike works great as it is, so "if it ain't broke" don't fix it!! :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemur Posted 16 hours ago Report Share Posted 16 hours ago (edited) Normal reach, long reach 🤔 no such thing unless there was only 2 spark plug ever made. Edited 16 hours ago by lemur 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorpaian Posted 15 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 15 hours ago why put that diagram up? I think the majority of people know what I mean. What's up with people on forums? End of subject now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonH Posted 9 hours ago Report Share Posted 9 hours ago Scorpaian: People have been trying to help you and you argue and throw their help back in their faces. They’ve been generous with their time and effort. You should say thank you instead of getting p****d off. You’re the problem on this forum not the others. Lemur, Konrad and others have been very helpful to me in the past and have been gentlemen about it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bike works great as it is, so "if it ain't broke" don't fix it!! 🙂 Don't take it personally about the normal thing it was me that prompted you to use the word normal in what I posted , probably because I am old and as we are talking specifically on a trials motorcycle forum about a 2 stroke engine then I tend to talk about the bikes including what used to be the norm which was a longer reach plug , if you go back to the 1980's you wont find too many 2 stroke trials motors using a short reach plug which is a relatively new thing in the trials bike world . Outside of 2 stroke trials motors of course a long reach plug should not be referred to as a normal type , al though having said that I must say every petrol engined van or car that I ever owned in my 61 years never had a short plug fitted and so perhaps I can excuse myself for calling long reach the normal ones. Enjoy riding your bike. Regards Alan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
