2022 Montesa 4rt 301rr Sump Guard

[Chillout1983]

Hi,

I am new to trials I have a very lightly used 4rt I would like to keep it as good as possible 😂 I currently have the standard sump guard with a wrap around water pump guard I am looking at guards from CSP, S3 and MITANI (full protection kit) I also thinking I will buy a linkage guard any advise appreciated.

thanks

I recommend a low cost clutch cover guard that covers the whole case (400$ part) and not just the bottom part and found the best way to keep it on is to use 2 sided tape instead of the bolts.

@Chillout1983 My advice if you are scared too use your bike because it may get damaged would be to sell it and buy an older bike that is cheaper and that already has scratches and scrapes all over it and then go and concentrate on riding in the knowledge that you will not be upset if the bike gets damaged if you crash it. This way you can enjoy trials riding instead of worrying about your precious , unless of course it is what things  look like that is more important to you than your riding. Old scratched up bikes do not have to be bad mechanically just rebuild it , replace with new the bits that actually matter put brand new brake parts on it , new clutch etc replace the seals and all the bearings , a bike that works like a new one but can be thrown on the ground without any tears is such a liberating feeling . I like to keep this in mind always " The things you own end up owning you". Enjoy your riding Best wishes Alan.

@LaVern Too clarify what I mean I will just say that the Worlds best Trials riders did not get where they are by worrying about damaging their bikes.

Hi thanks for the responses, I fully expect to scratch , scrape and damage the bike due to to the nature of the sport even more so having never ridden a motorcycle, I now have 3 hours under my belt 😂

I am just really looking to give the bike some more protection such as a better sump guard that covers additional area than the original and as mentioned some casing covers.

i am also bit of kid at heart and love fancy anodised parts.

thanks 👍
