Beta

New to trials bikes and lhs kick start. Tried kicking over whilst on sidestand. Oh dear. Now sidestand bends under the bike when down (no good at all) and threatens to rub on back wheel when up. Couldn't 'straighten it out' in situ. Have taken it off and bracket looks 'bent/weak/dodgy. Not obvious to me what to do. Anyone with experience of this problem that can help? Thanks

Owning a 2012 Evo 4T I find it more difficult getting add on bits for it compared to the 2T versions. I’m after some carbon look engine cover guards (Clutch etc) and perhaps a rear silencer cover. Does anyone know if these are available in the uk for the 4T. Mont 4RT add on bits everywhere but Beta 4T a different story. Thanks in advance Alan.

Hi all New to the forum, so unsure if I'm in the correct category? Looking for a Beta Rev 3 side stand bracket or the full assembly (2002) model. Rare as hens teeth but thought I'd try to source one on here, many thanks Mark

In the process of experimenting with the shifter I messed up by not properly loctite-ing the cam screw which backed out and scratched up the back of the basket. Still worked fine but looked hack. Since the basket is getting grooved it’s time to atone for the sin of not using loctite and replace the basket hardware. I’ve also noticed significant wear on the throwout bearing. And something else which is a bit weird. The throwout bearing has become magnetic and is picking swarf out of the tranny oil. Maybe that’s why the bearing is a bit rough? Much smoother after a flush.?

Hi does anyone make a softer front fork spring for the Beta 80 Senior ? Its a 38mm Paioli fork.

Hi all stripped the clutch on my rev 3 250 measures the thickness of the plates and they are at 2.7mm thickness . And when new they are 2.8mm so I would have thought 0.1 mm wouldn't be too much to cause clutch slip . So I have changed the oil for a light 75 w gear oil by putaline so I am hoping this should cure the problem .

Hi, can anyone point me in the direction of a Beta Spares dealer/shop. I'm actually looking for a topend rebuild gasket set for a Beta techno 250 1997. Cheers in advance

Morning all wonder if you can help. Would anyone know the colour code of the red frame on the 2013 evo factory 300 as I would like to get a touch up? Many thanks

He'llo everyone, first time posting in here as I'm new to trialling. I've got myself a 2006 Rev 3 250, I really enjoy riding it but I've noticed a couple of things. First off the carb would dribble all the time from the atmosphere tubes so I did the BILLY T mod with the plate tang, replaced the vent pipes with long ones going over the carb. Whilst I had the carb stripped and cleaned in the bath, I checked the needle to find the rubber hard with a dip in the cone so fitted a genuine needle and body. The carb also had the standard 30 pilot and 150 main, I've read the I should try the 27.5 pilot and 145 main so I've fitted a 27.5 but I'm waiting on th…

Well went out today after fitting a switch to the fan so I can switch it on and off due to the stat not working , so did some riding in the woods and it was getting hot so on goes the switch and nothing so I was guessing fan or voltage rectified has gone caput . Got home got the trusty multi meter out and checked my feed from the coils and at idle 6 volts and revved up 12 so low voltage coil is working fine , then to my annoyance flipped the switch for the fan and it was working and checking my coil feed to the regulator it was working fine got it hot and it was ok . So ither it was a blip or poor connection and the drive home moved some wires about . But I'm unsure weat…

I'm aware some of you are experts in the history of the Beta and know about the various annual upgrades and I'd like to tap into that knowledge for some advice I remember reading some years back the Beta offered a 300 in both standard and SS versions. I think the SS had flywheel weights and a longer throttle and was easier to ride for more 'novice' riders. I've been out of the game for a while and don't seem to see anything about the SS - was is dropped? Did it work? Also - As an old guy returning to the sport, will a modern 300 be too much. I was going to opt for a 250, my last bike being a new 290 Sherco back in 2001. The 290 was fairly brutal …

Hi all this is abit of a strange one , went out today did hill climbs ect and went one the road to clear off the mud on the tyres when getting up to speed the clutch slips as I can here as the rpm picks up past mid to top it starts slipping , now my question is why did I not pick up on it when going up hills under load where I would of expected to feel it slip . Or is this an adjustment issue as i put new levers on it , apico ones off ebay , the levers are loos so they aren't adjusted with put slack between the engagement screw and the piston .

Hi, we have this bike from new and it has been nothing but trouble, its had all the electrics changed before and has been running fine from oct 19 until today. my son rode it in a practice trials on saturday last week, all was fine, ive washed it, cleaned air filter, cleaned carb, and got it ready for next week, Ive started it and it ticks over fine but as soon as you open the throttle it dies, it kicks over and starts immediately and will tick over for ever. i've taken carb off and checked the jets again and put back on and tried it without air filter, it still does the same. Any ideas? thanks in advance. Wayne

I wondered if anyone knows when to change the plates on Beta Evo 2018; in another words what is the minimum thickness of them. The plates are around 3mm each, I run out of the adjustment on the handlebar and the slightest pull on the lever sends clutch slipping. Is it a time? Would adding a few shims to the basket postpone the replacement? Thank you ahead for your wisdom.

Hello all, New to the forums here! My younger brother is just about to move onto a Beta 80 big wheel from a medium wheel bike. When I rode a Beta 300 I put Tech forks into it using the S3 triple clamps as an upgrade and I was wondering if you can use those same clamps in a big wheel 80? I have a feeling it will work but the offset may be different etc. There is more adjustment in the Techs than the old style 80 forks. Also means we can use a Braktec and a Morad front wheel. All of that should equate to a lighter package for him as he's quite small. Has anyone else got any experience? Cheers, Ollie

I'm looking for a flywheel weight for a 2001 Beta Rev3 270. These are 80 mm hole to hole as opposed to later Rev3s that are 70 mm. Did these also require a spacer for the side cover? I was looking at making one myself but there is not much space under the side cover. I'm in the US.

Hi everyone I have a shift moped of the brand beta but if I have driven for a while I can still shift gears perfectly but neutral succeeds that not so well when I turn off my moped it succeeds back perfectly you may know why or you tips ps I have already replaced motor oil thanks in advance

Hello all my friends just purchased a 2013 300 evo and the rear brake doesn't seem to be working properly. The foot brake just seems to go all the way down to the sump plate with very little effect. Has anyone had the same problem and a fix? Many thanks

Hi all where can I get new head light switch and loom wiring pluss the rear light loom as well . Thanks

With a little bit of luck some may be able to point me in the correct direction. I have a 2000 rev 3 with the USD front forks. Being the only year Beta did the USD forks in the Rev 3 there is no information out there on them or parts. Although mine are working ok however they are a bit on the sad side of things and are sagging. All the replacement springs i have found so far say they fit Techno, Rev 3 and Evo but there is no information as to if it fits USD models. I know a few of the Technos had USD forks so does anyone know is they where the same as the Rev 3 and the spring's fit and are still available. Or if there is any other springs out there that …
