I've noticed the kickstart lever on my 2014 hits the foot peg if you push the lever down too far!!! I went too far a couple of times and put some marks in the end of the lever so decided to make a kickstart lever rubber until I come up with something better. I used a bit of red car heater hose. The internal diameter pushes pretty firm over the end of the lever and seems to stay on well when I kick it over. It may get slippery in wet conditions but so far seems ok in the dry. I used a Dremel tool to create a few craters for grip and with a wet boot may still grip well enough for a start???? Time will tell but no more hitting ally to steel with the hose on. Does everyo…

can anyone help with the identification of my cota. I think its a 1980+ something, engine/ chassis # 21M516** black engine help ??

Can anyone help me with the correct way to assembly and setting up of my cota 310 kickstart shaft. I have fitted a new spring and now cannot get the mechanism to work. How do I set up the cam type gear and do I tension the spring after fitting the cover? Any photos/ diagrams would be appreciated. The only time it worked properly there was a constant ticking of a gear not disengaging properly.

Right fellas quick question, what's on , off , res on the fuel tap thanks

Hi Can anyone help. I have a Montesa Cota 247 (Oct 1973 i believe) that i have had for about 18 months now that was in a bit of a state when i bought it. Its my intention to make it look a little more like it did when it was born. When i purchased it i spent a couple of hours to see if it would run and low and behold it eventually fired up and sounded really nice ( if you like the sound of these machines that is) I rode it and it seemed quite strong all the gears worked and it seemed like it was more of a cosmetic rather than mechanical rebuild. I thought i was on the last stages after spending a fortune on parts that are very expensive for what they are and g…

I have a 2018 300 with black throttle tube. It looks just like the 2T throttle. Is a slower one available? I have a 2016 Beta 300 4T standard model and the throttle has much more resolution for small blips, maybe 100% more resolution that makes throttle control much easier.
