You aren't measuring the voltage correctly or your alternator has a problem, your alternator outputs AC voltage. Primary coil can also be meter tested for continuity and should be in the realm of only a few ohms.

Now it is shining and lots of new parts. But no sparks at all. Basic wiring as mentioned by Ausierider So Black wire from point to coil. New parts included coil, ignition points, condensor, spark plug and cable. Black wire check short circuit so fine. Turning flywheel gives little V 0,06 What have I done wrong. Must be simple

Bought the bike about 6 weeks ago, the seller said he had moved the rear brake reservoir due to exhaust melting the pipe or something like that. Attached photo shows where he has fitted it, can someone show me where it is supposed it be fitted. Also I need to change the rear master cylinder, the brake light switch/banjo is no longer needed and a bit suspect so want to replace it with a banjo bolt, what size/ thread pitch is it? Cheers Tim

I need to replace the 2 seals between the exhaust header and mid section on my 2024 TXT Pro Racing. Any advice? Remove header or mid box? I looked at removing the header pipe but can't see how i can get the lower hex bolt out of the barrel as the exhaust is in the way. A normal Allen key will go on but will only turn a few mm before it hits the exhaust or sump guard/frame. Any help/tips much appreciated. Thanks.

Assemble the piston on the rod, mark up the piston where it hits then remove the piston and remove enough on those corners to give clearance of at least 1 mm. As for physically removing metal, hold the piston without deforming it and use a file or a grinder or a sanding belt or a sanding disc.

@Seabag Yep that is as far as it will go on .

Mine can't slide all the way. It's stopping about 1 cm short and seems to be blocked by the Allen bolt. — I guess thats normal?

@Seabag The kick pedal slides on the splines and then a allen bolt goes through a tophat washer and is screwed into the hole in the center of the shaft thus holding the pedal on the shaft , its best to use medium thread lock on the bolt or it can sometimes loosen off if it has been overtightened in the past. Check the parts book exploded view drawings to see how things are put together. Best wishes Alan.

I appreciate all the responses, they really helped me.

Is this kickstart shaft the same as V-0231 – KICKSTART SHAFT? I'm having trouble getting the parts to fit together properly. My bike is a 2019 Vertigo Vertical Combat 250cc, and I'm using the original Vertigo kickstart lever. However, I can't seem to get it to fit correctly onto the shaft. I was expecting there to be a groove or slot in the shaft for the cross bolt on the lever to lock into, but it doesn't seem to be there.

I recently was sent a 311 piston and have a 1977 TY250. How should I go about cutting (or filing) the piston skirt so it will clear the crankshaft? I have files.

There is a good webpage with lots of info wich you can follow, to which extens Will it be usefull to your final purpuse i don't know but a good read for sure. About this site – THE HONDA TRIALS HISTORY

@ Seabag https://blog.splatshop.co.uk/tech-suspension-fork-oil-levels/ IPONE oil 3WT for = to FORMULA recommended OJ01 FORK OIL . as stated in the blog.

Short answer: probably Tech. The left side has the wire spring, so a lower fluid level tends to compensate and gives a similar air chamber volume as a higher level without a spring. But ultimately, those numbers are just a starting point. The fluid level affects the bottoming behavior. Different riders may require/prefer different settings. It's easier to add oil (using a syringe) than to remove it. More info here: https://www.electricmotiontech.com/home/em-epure-race/mechanicals/tech-39mm-forks

@Seabag this matches the service manual you have so looks like you have the answer. https://vertigomotors.co.uk/technical/

I'm new here and have just bought a used 2019 Vertigo Combat Vertical 250cc. I'm about to change the oil in both front forks, but I'm a bit unsure about the correct oil level. In the service manual for the bike, it says the oil level should be 130 mm in both forks. However, in the service manual for the forks — which are Tech Suspension — it states that the level should be 130 mm in the left fork and 75 mm in the right. Which one should I trust?

Is there a Service Manual for the Vertigo 2019 Vertical combat 250cc? I can only find the Spare Parts pdf and the Owners Manual pdf.

Yeah it's not great. There was no witness marks or scuffed bare metal and the bore almost looked new so looks like it hasn't even been run in yet which is good, ie hasn't run much. Turning the engine over there was no tick, turning it fast with an electric drill on the crank and plug out and only the lightest of ticks. Seems that in this case was lucky and it was only just touching.

Thanks for reporting back! Just FYI, that condition is really hard on the rod bearings.

Just an update, engine has had a full strip and clean, new gaskets and seals, valves lapped etc. It had smoked a little but new valve stem seals have fixed that. And found the ticking, it has had a new barrel and piston at some point and the piston with standard gaskets was just touching the cylinder head, making a nice clear ticking sound! Took a while to find what it was and as a temp fix and to double check that was the problem it has gone back together with 2 base gaskets, a new one and the old one. Ticking gone.

Why can't Honda UK help? Normally for a fee (£30 last time I used them) they can supply relevant info from Japan although it can take a while. After all, where does the H.O.C.(GB) get it's info from?

Any help, greatly appreciated... I'm struggling! I recently purchased a Honda RS200T twin shock. Unfortunately, a PO registered the bike with DVLA as manufactured 1985, when Honda only produced these from 1979-1981! Trying to correct this error, I've obtained proof (Dating Certificate), from Honda Owners Club (GB), confirming 1979 as YOM - Honda GB and Japan, weren't able to assist... but DVLA won't accept and are asking for more info! They've suggested an excerpt of the production record from Honda's worldwide database, amongst other things! Where could I locate that?!? I'm running out of ideas, clearly the bike has been incorrectly registered, but where to go next? Anyone able to assist... 🥺

I can only agree... We had the 80cc TRS not even a year. I thought it would be a killer bike in between 50/80cc beta and the bigger 125cc with the geometry and quality of the bigger TRS's. It was not... It broke down numerous times. Waterpump seal within the first hours mixing oil and coolant... great... Worst part was the casing that broke 4 times... Right hand side with the crack starting from the kickstarter. It would even break from my daugther starting the bike and she's a 10 year old. Then there's the engine's terrible running. We've tried different jet settings etc but it's a pain to get it running right and according to my daugther it runs and feels different every time. FRame, suspension, geometry are great! Engine sucks... Great shout out though to my TRS-dealer who solved all the problems as fast as he could with the factory backing him but we've have lost so many driveable hours last year. Eventually ( the little lady grew significantly last year) we switched to a 125rr. Way better. Avoid em if you can... Ride it out on the Beta 80 till they're big enough for a 125.
