EFI is the future, no point in standing still we must embrace modern technology.
I reckon the reason most manufacturers have not gone the EFI route is the extra cost on the bike, I've not been in trials that long but one thing i've learnt is that the modern day trials rider is a tight a***d b%&£$@d ................ OW MUCH !!!!
I like the look of the white framed bikes that's why I loved the look of my Beta, still just thinking things over will hopefully get a go on a TRS 250 this weekend
I have a 2015 Repsol 4rt with the std Showa suspension which I have no issues with, BUT I have a Ohlins rear shock sat in my garage doing nowt that I had on my Beta Factory. My question is, is the Ohlins shock better than the std Showa is it worth getting the Ohlins sorted to fit the Mont ???
Anyone tried machining the clutch side weight down ? I've machined one down but not tried it yet, I have been told you have to lighten the flywheel as well, apparently there is a formula to follow ??
I removed the Bank Sensor and the bike still would not start it was trying to start but just would not go, pulled the plug out and it was jet black and very sutty put a new plug in and it started 2nd kick. Hopefully all sorted now I'm think it was a mixture of freezing cold weather and a dodgy plug. I never knew the bike had a bank sensor so at least I've eliminated possible future problems.
My bike started ok at today's trial as usual, did the first 2 sections no problem but at section 3 the wind blew it over while I was looking at the section, when I got back to it and picked it up it would not start ? It took about 5 mins of kicking and when it did start it was bogged down as if it was a 2 Stoke with a flooded carb, I cleared its throat and rode the section no problems, had to stop shortly after to get through a gate and it would not start again, this time I adjusted the screw on the throttle body and got it going again but it was bogging again. Got to the next section with the bike running fine stopped it looked at the sections and it started 1st kick when needed, the next set of section where a good ride across the moor away the bike ran fine, stopped to look at the section went to start it and nothing ! I tried for about 15 min with no look so I pushed it off the moor to the road for the long push back. I tried to start it again and it started on a very lumpy tick over but eventually cleared it throat and I rode about 2 miles back down the road with no issues. When I got it home and washed off it would not start again. I have lost the setting for the screw on the throttle body does anyone know the base starting point for the screw like an air screw on a 2 stroke ? Has anyone else had issues like this ?
