  1. Hows that s3 transformer kit working? Been looking for a nice set of stickers and the transformers certenly looks great. Is it good fit? Does it peel of to easy? Could you post some more pics of your bike please?
  2. I consider my gearbox/clutch to work fine. Not much drag at all hot or cold. But it's harder to shift gear after an hour or so. I find that strange and can't really figure why. Could it be oil related? Another thing is when I disengage the clutch for some lets say 5sec and then engage it fully it continue to drag for a 1 sec. Could it be worn steelplates or a worn clutchbasket? It's a 2005 rt4 btw. I will inspect the clutch this winter anyway and maybe be able to figure it out. The seller was talking about worn steelplates could cause sticktion between the plates.
  3. Is there a thread already? If not, let's start one. This is my newly bought 2005 Montesa. And my first trial too. Since I'm in to photagrophy I couldn't resist take it outside one morning and take some poser shots. Great bike, lovely sound and power easy to handle.
  4. I got my hands on a rt4 05 and bought it. I had a few rides on it and the power feels great. Not to much just spot on for me. How is the power compared to a 290 300 2t?
  5. I'm about to buy a beta and I'm looking at two objects. A evo 290 2011 in mint condition, clubman bike used about ten times for about 4400
  6. Have tried to find info about this but no success. Do somebody know this or where i Can find this info? I'm looking for the difference in 2010 and 2011 EVO 290.
  7. Ok hmm many opinions now. ; ) Fact about me Been riding bikes since 7 years old mostly offroad, 85kg, 183cm, age 31. Been/are doing agressive inlines, windsurf, mtb, kayak. Will a 125cc be sufficient for me if i decide to learn the right way? or is my weigth to much? I've been looking for a 200-250 but it looks like no one buy them. Theres plenty of 280-300 and some 125 on the swedish market. I've been looking at gg 125 -10, beta 125 -11, beta 290 -11 they say that beta 290 has i smooth and nice power and that makes it kind of interesting. I belive there are mods to make them even easier to drive. When you say you learn the rigth tecnique with a 125 do you mean that you have to be more active in jumping the bike and to load up the flywheel with power and use clutchcontrol to jump a step for example? Can someone explain where a 125 and a 290 differ the most in a section. Is the the slippery stuff or steps and so on. Ham2 gave me a hint so far. Is it possible to say that with a big cc bike you *must have good throttle control *must be able to move around more rotating mass *are able to climd longer and steeper hills *are able to several big steps in a row *must be in better shape/condition to manage the same time as a lesser cc bike
  8. thanks sparky! I live in sweden, the westcoast north of gothenburg. I had a plan to buy a Gas Gas 125 2009-11 in nice condition to begin with, just to learn the basics. and when I feel ready rebuild the engine to a 200. but then I found out that there is a kit from s3 to convert the engine to a true 225cc. I've read great things about this kit. maybe it could ve a good solution?
  9. I'm about to buy a trial and find out what this sport is about. I have read that you should start with a small cc bike not more than 250 anyway. I've been looking for a 200-250 bike but they are hard to find. Although there is plenty of 280, 290 300 and there are also some 125. So I was thinking of getting a 125 to start with. It's probably the right thing to do if my aim is to contest but it's not. It's just for fun so maybe I could start with a 280, 300 bike and take it slow. (I'm used to motorcycles) Can someone please explain why I shouldn't start with a 300 2t? Please give me some examples of when a smaller cc bike could be better. Thanks
  10. You tell me! I can't find any information about these bikes in Sweden. The place with the best info so far must be jotagasuk.com
  11. Anyone got any time on the 250 yet? Is it as smooth as the 300?
