Re: Taylorsville Trials Sunday 9/21

I'd come out and check out an event before committing to try to ride it on something more than a trials bike. I wouldn't even think about riding my orange on most of the sections. If not just the weight or the clearance to give the bike some body English, but most of the turns there just isn't enoug...

Re: Taylorsville Trials Sunday 9/21

I guess my high score needs an asterisk then: *most points without DNFing.
I had a great time, learned a lot about what my bike can do, even with my lack of skills. I'll definitely be back for more.

Re: Taylorsville Trials Sunday 9/21

I went boppin' around Tasker's on the Sherco today. My fork seal job is holding up, so I put on some fresh, front brake pads. My rim repair didn't hold up, so I put in a tube. My ankle hardware didn't hold up, but I'm going to go maximum dosage on ibuprofen and show up anyway. Here's hoping the bike...

Re: WTB: Sherco Rear Rim or Wheel

Well, she wasn't holding air nearly as well at 6psi. She now has a duct tape rim strip, a whole lot of leading edge tape over anything not perfectly smooth, and a tube.

Re: WTB: Sherco Rear Rim or Wheel

My mind won't let me do that as a permanent fix. It must be fixed perfectly!

Re: WTB: Sherco Rear Rim or Wheel

I've posted in the trials flea market thread.

In the mean time, about four hours with a file, wire brush, and scotchbrite pads, and it looks like she's holding pressure, well, at least at 30PSI.

Re: went on my first real ride yesterday

If you want a tagged dirt bike, better to look at the European bikes since they don't brand the title and VIN as "offroad only."
WV is actually a little harder to get one legal than VA.

Re: WTB: Sherco Rear Rim or Wheel

I think it's an issue of using the tube type slime in a tubeless wheel. But yeah, I won't touch the stuff.

WTB: Sherco Rear Rim or Wheel

Is there any chance that somebody has a rear rim or wheel for a 2006 2.9 Sherco?
