Hello fellow trial bikers,
I just bought a fairly descent Beta 260 zero, after checking the fluids (and completely refilling the cooling liquid) i tried the bike out for a little test run.
The following problems arose:
The clutch seems to have 4 gears, and i can barely get it into first from neutral, and from first to neutral.
The first gear also seems to lack any real power, i tried getting the front wheel in the air but i stopped cause the revs where getting a bit high and it didn't even pull in the suspension.
This was easily possible on a montesa 350 i rode just recently ( i know it has more cc's but i thought its an older type).
Weird thing is when iam at a higher speed it has allot of power.
Also when iam in ( i think ) first gear it responds choppy when at low speeds.
Am i right to think the clutch plates are worn and that this causes the problem?
Or maybe the change in chain wheel sizes?
am i right that this bike has a one down rest up clutch?
And that it has six gears and not 4?
Is there any rider out there that rides the same type of bike as me or has ridden it, and can tell me the characteristics/specs of this bike when it runs good?
Or any trial rider with an opinion on this for that matter.
Thanks,
