Re: New Trials Club, I hope!

Thought it would never happen, Well it looks like the NT croc Hoppers is a go. It would seem that I am not the only one in Darwin who rides. In fact thanks to this site and the encouragement of others, I am able to ride in a group of fellow trials minded individuals. Greg, you were right, in your ...

Re: Fuel TV & Trials

Raddy,
Nice one, I never thought of that. Rest assured I will give them a try. I've almost given up on Fuel ](*,) . They don't reply and keep changing their schedule. I think Trials has ben dropped. It's a shame, but you are spot on with SBS.

Cheers
Davo :NT:

Re: NT Croc Hoppers Moto Trials Club

Cheers guys,
I feel quite strongly about this and appreciate your support. I am a defence member and am fed up with seeing young lads with a desire to go off road, end up in hospital, something that happens a lot with the young soldiers. I feel that they would get a lot of that desire out of their ...

Re: Beta steering or steering in general

Update,
Well it's surprising what shifting your position and moving the bars makes. I also got my manual out and made the forks a bit harder. Not sure on this one though as I think I may have increased the rebound and reduced damping. However, much better. I also tried looking more to my front ( as ...

Re: Beta steering or steering in general

Cheers guys
