Just fitted an Amal stay up float kit to the concentric carb on my bike but now it floods as soon as the fuel is switched on, have tried to lower the float level as well as checking the viton tipped float needles operation but without effecting a cure. Any ideas please.

Are you in the UK ? If so call Beta UK quote frame and engine numbers they will have all relevant information. I think it may be a 2002 model by the colours.

What type of wheel spindle arrangement is best when using a Cub type hub in AJS, Matchless fork legs?

I never saw any potential purchaser taking an interest in any of the high priced bikes.

Having now seen the bike I do not think JT has been wasting his time, it appears to me at least to be well thought out with influences from most or all of its current rivals.

My understanding of the reason why motorcycle rear brakes were placed on the left hand side has something to do with the way brain signals are sent to limbs giving quicker response to right arm left leg or left arm right leg, it was our american friends (or their politicians) who demanded that the brakes on everything have to be as they are now. I too think that once you get used to the bike you will not even think about rear brake pedals.

Agree brake on left = proper bike.

Also for sale today a Model 27 and a 49, not sure of the price of these though. There were a lot of bikes for sale both in the halls and outside 199a, 199b, various Montesa models also Pre 65.

Saw the bike only in passing yesterday (too busy to look) had a better glance today and yes have to agree with you.

Ross Danby and Steve Saunders were at the show today with the TRS, the bike looks quality it created a great deal of interest.

A very original looking Bultaco Model 10 round tank for sale at the show today, asking price 4K.

At the show this afternoon Friday, looks to be lots to see in all three halls.

Raises the question will the new owners of GasGas maintain build and materials quality by using the same suppliers, unless everything is as before the newly built bikes will be just as unknown a quantity as are the other new brands.

Me too but the bikes he has recently been involved with both feature alloy frames.

I have owned or ridden Beta Rev 3, Beta Evo also Montesa, all have similar frames which were made by Verlicchi in Italy (do not know if this is still the case) both companies retained this frame type in various guises while GG and Sherco had several very different designs of their steel version. Jordi Tarres had great success on Beta with the alloy frame so he obviously thought this the way forward.

Except Beta & Montesa both use alloy frames,

Steve Goode has a really well looked after one owner Evo 4t for sale.

Is a domestic dehumidifier suitable, what heater might be a good one to get? I realise that it all depends on the volume of the building but think single car garage size.

Leaving Ashbourne on the A515 for Lichfied go past the garden centre on your left then take the first left, left down the lane, continue for about 3/4 mile then turn right into the small track which takes you to the course. Plenty of parking.

Are there purchasers waiting for the bikes or just a group of people interested in how it might perform compared to rival brands?

I think it was due to owning a new but completely undeveloped, uncompetitive bike that was quite unsuited to trials especially when compared to the rapidly improving Spanish machines. Also they had very little residual value depreciating as fast as a freefalling brick.

Could be any of the above but a weak point on the TY175 carb are the O rings especially the one around the main jet, they need to be intact and a good fit.

Are there two spark plugs or two systems fed to a single plug?

The difference is two spokes a side which as I understand it would make them completely incompatible.
