    Sherco

    Sherco all day, any day. My 14 250 2t is worlds better than my 13 300 GG was. Lighter, stronger, more responsive, and better build. Sherco's genius is not just the electronic power valve that allows real dual map power characteristics, but sourcing parts and using dimensions that are common...

    What to expect for 2016?

    Not to poke a dead horse, but this has nothing to do with capitalism. The Spanish government wouldn't have any debt in or any part in a poorly managed company in a capitalistic environment. The fact the state government is involved goes against the principals of capitalism. Yes, just like GM...

    Idle screw?

    Be sure you get the enduro Keihin set, as the trials Keihin set is different. There is a S3 enduro pages on Ryan's site (rypusa.com), the carb screws are on page two of the S3 enduro stuff. Your link actually goes to the trials del orto set. I usually just call and place the order by phone...

    Sherco

    Www.Trialscentral.com is your best bet for trials related info. There are brand specific and country specific categories. Its an international forum, but there are as lot of US folks on there as well. I just sold my 99 sherco 250 and picked up a 2011 st2.9. Love Sherco technology on the...

    Different veiw of weight

    Great comparison; But I'm confused by the three entries for the GG and only two for the others. Is the first entry the weight of each with no rider? This would be the most relevant for a side by side comparison. invariably once a rider is added there is a large disparity in relevance...

    Jackets

    How is the sizing? I was thinking of ordering one, they look to be a solid design. I think they are Hebo, like the trials gear...but don't know for sure. Thanks,

    Tech Tip: Fixing the kickstand auto-retraction

    On my 2013, I just bent the spring mount tap a few millimeters forward. Now the spring anchor point is just forward of the kickstand pivot...no more auto-retract. Works great. A few taps with a hammer or some gentle force with some pliers will do. A couple chips of paint did come off where...

    2013 rad braces

    That's how I had mine assembled, but with different results. My rubber mount bushing looks thicker than yours. Did you modify the rubber bushing?

    2013 rad braces

    Thanks for the reply's. I just got a reply a few minutes ago to my inquiry through the EE web site on Monday...asking for the photo's I told them I had. My dealer, who ordered them from EE, spoke with them this morning and they claim Alan (owner of EE) can tell me how to make them fit. My...

    2013 rad braces

    Thanks for the reply, yes, the spacer is between the bike frame and the rad brace...as the photo instructions show. It looks like either EE had a bad batch that are cut too short or the rubber radiator bushing is thicker on the 2013. I think if I cut down the rubber bushing it might fit, but...

    Clay shows off Enduro Bikes at World Trial

    Yep, 9 is where Kyle Redman's husky burned during Tue TKO...they have named that section Redman's Campfire. I went down for Sunday only and didn't spend much time in the paddock. I can't afford a new trials bike after just buying the new 300xc, so I stayed away from the tents...but I didn't...

    2013 rad braces

    I tried to fit the EE radiator braces to my new 300...they seem to be a bit short in width. Anyone else had this problem? I've e-mailed EE to see what I'm doing wrong, but from what I can tell from the photos in their instructions...I'm doing it right (haven't heard back yet from them...but...
