Scorpa

Ok so as per my last post my 2002 sy 250. Has some strange habits. It runaway revs as it's running out of gas. Which is a problem as it seems to use more than double what my riding companions use. I carry 2 L extra and still have to go home early and there all on there first tank! I have replaced the needle and needle jet, full carb clean checked float height, stock needle on the top notch. and it doesn't seem to be leaking any gas. It doesn't seem to run as smooth as other bikes but I hear that is typical of these motors. Any suggestions?

Hi. Does anybody know what the standard or recommended gearing is on a '05 sy250? Thanks in advance.

Hi guys ... My newest scorpa , the sy 250 F four banger ..is a ripper ,, but the "flat spot" off idle is driving me bonkers (huge thanks to Paul at the hell team in OZ for all your help and info ) and I guess that with such a forum of smart people here I should throw it out to the room .. What have you done to reduce the flat spot /hessitation just after idle on this bike ....? or do I just learn to live with it ...... or find a breaking late model wrf and steal the efi out of it ..... any ideas ?? (apart from selling it )

dunno why , but I must be a sucker for the French and their friendliness ...... I now have a scorpa 125 , a 175 .. and have just bought a sy 250 t 2006 model 4 stroke .. ( was never any good at maths .... can't work out ratios's) I am trying to source some plastics for it ... based on the fact that I am crap rider and I can only throw muself under the bike so many times before i break a rear gaurd ... Don't need one yet .... just a matter of time ..

Hi all my friend is looking for a trials bike to buy next month and asked me what the 2000 to 2004 scorpa 250s are like and i have never ridden or seen one in thee flesh so could any one tell me what they are like compared to a beta rev 3 or gasgas sherco basicaly the Italian bikes , Thanks Ian

Just had an email saying the 2015 Scorpas will be shown this weekend in France. Literally in the airport right now heading out there so stay tuned to TC for pics, hopefully tomorrow but depends when they decide to unveil

Got an 07 sy250f this summer for a playbike,looking for a long ride kit for it. Also, it has a slight oil leaking from the top right valve cover area, would like to get a new gasket from my local Yamaha shop, What's the most similar Yamaha model and year for engine parts? Thanks, Ken

Hello Folks, Recently acquired a 60 SY250... I'm sure its a grasp at straws, but does anyone have a source, or a direction I could be looking to get ahold of a Long ride conversion kit for this rascal? -thanks kindly -t

hi guys . Curious to know who has discovered a range of spares for the scorpa 4t 125 / 175 bikes . I am in OZ and i think I am the owner of the only 2 125's in OZ (please contact me to differ ..... I need a pal )

Hi Ya'll, I have a 2008 Scorpa sy250r and I have killed my rear shock. My apologies if this topic is duplicated howeverI cant find the first one I wrote. My rear shock basically grenaded and is totally unusable. The shock shaft came off the piston while I was riding and then under compression hit the side of the piston turning it sideways in the shock body bending the shock shaft and damaging both the piston and shock body. basically the only useable parts are the spring and mounting hardware. Does anyone on here know where to find a used shock? I have checked with scorpa and these shocks are way out of my price range, and an Ohlins equivalent is astronomical in price(lik…

Hi, The wife fancies a day out on the scorpa while I'm on the ktm. Does anyone know of a cheap way of getting a seat pad on there that isn't too low? I'm sure I read about a small cc mx bike seat 'working' Jon

a shot of my collection ........a slow start ....

who was riding it? who seen it? does it ride and sound just like a sherco>? Good to see it finally out and about?

Hello All, I bought myself a 125f to get back into things after a 5 year break from trials. Its a nice little bike, high revs everywhere but will do anything im prepared to look at for the minute. My question is - has anyone fitted the 175 big bore kit and how much of a difference does it make ?, Is it difficult to fit ?, not sure if I should give this a try or just go straight into buying another 4rt. Mabey im kidding myself and the small bore 4 pumper at 125 is all i'll need !, im 45 now and not as brave as I was 20 years ago ! ive go a bolt on longride seat with it and this is a great bonus as its also effective and capable on a short distance green lane burst ! …

Where is the best place to get seals for front master cylinder and front caliper for 2000 model SY250.?? Thanks..

Guys- removed rhs engine cover and there's a large (14mm) bolt in front of the water pump seal. I've tried to remove it (carefully with a piece of alu bar between the cogs on the water pump gear and the clutch cogs. Assume this is an anti clockwise thread and I just have to give it a bit more muscle? Cheers for any comments

Guys-my 2007 SY250 had an oil change today and oil looks a bit milky coloured......any ideas where this could be coming from.....water in rad seems to be at the same level but I'm not sure what it takes to contaminate the oil??.......PS just started using this forum and it's brilliant info has been used already to sort my carb and clutch ( usual issues of a good clean and the right oil!)

Hi guys My Dad has just bought a scorpa sy250 with the vin number vmuscy249sc600 can anyone tell me what year bike this is

Someone needs to pick up that 04 SY listed in the offroad mart! Wish it were closer to me!

I just picked up a '12 SR280. I promptly took the air filter out for cleaning and ran into a few problems down stream. I am now assembling the airbox and filter but don't know the proper alignment of the filter holding insert or clip position. Should the insert have the bigger clip lip on the front side or the back? How the heck does the large holding clip mount back in? I remember the open end going into the small recesses on the sides of the airbox but nothing seems to come close which ever way I try. I tried to look up the parts manual on the scorpa fr. website but they changed everything to the 2015 model launch. Thanks, Scott
