jml Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 On my 2010 Beta evo 125 I've noticed that my idle starts to drop (not stall) when the bike is pointing downhill on a steep camber, is this normal? (new to trials, not sure if this normal) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p@ul250 Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Yes it's normal for an Evo to do this. As far as I'm aware it's to do with the angle that the carb is mounted at I.E it's nose down on the bike anyway. I have even had my bike stall/cut out before. Just turn the tickover up a little bit if your finding it a problem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizza5 Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Yes same problem if you park your Beta downhill it will flood and take a bit more to start? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just opened the carb to just make sure the floats are positioned correctly and I noticed the floats are not level (with each other) so I fixed that up. This did help improve the situation from the quick testing I performed with lifting the rear wheel a few feet of the ground but I'll need to check it out on the trail. I'll also have a play around with the idle tick over. Thanks again Yes same problem if you park your Beta downhill it will flood and take a bit more to start? Not sure if it's just the downhill or if it's flooded but I do find it hard to start it again on the downhill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldilocks Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 A good read for those who see no benefit in fuel injection. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
