Sounds like mine does when I go swimming with it. If water gets through the air filter and into the carb' it can still idle around but when it is asked to rev up a bit more it can suck the bubble of water in from the bowl. You said the carb was spotless so I figure this has been already checked.

CAUTION!! Unless you are ready to lay out the cash for one, DO NOT take the SCORPA SY for a test ride! Once you've been on one you won't be able to live without it.

I just say: "Excuse me! It must have been the chili."

Mine does it also once in a while. Ever since I turned the timing up a bit. Interesting yours just began doing it out of the blue.

Anything other than a Trials motorcycle would definately make the Five Miles of Hell trail live up to its name. There were quite a few bike parts and pieces that were scattered on the edges of the trail from some of the casualties. Four of us rode through it one way, checked our fuel supply and decided to ride it again backwards back to the truck.

I've used this stuff called "Bleche White". Works great! It is designed for cleaning white wall tires.

marky boy, Welcome back to the "Dark Side".

I'd break that thing real fast. After fifteen minutes in my hands those wheels would look like taco shells. It is probably great for someone coming from a mountain bike mindset but after being on motorcycles for years it would feel like a kids toy.

Trail riding is much more fun on a trials bike. I expect that the Scorpa Long RIde is the perfect bike for it. It can be a bit tough keeping up with the big enduros on the power line trails and fire roads. We have a few trails that we ride that are like a continuous section a mile long. The best trail is in Utah, USA called "Five Miles of Hell". On a trials motorcycle it is more like five miles of heaven. What a Blast!

Yes. The white is the fast one. I believe they can come with fast or slow when new. There is also the choice of heavy or light flywheels. If you're looking for "zip" make sure you match up the light flywheel with that white throttle tube and the proper carb settings. Don't forget about advancing the timing. With that combination, it produces more "zip" than most of us will ever want. You won't be disappointed.

Ringo, You kill me!

It can drag like that in cold weather for the first five to ten seconds especially if the oil is thick and/or old. It will also drag if there is too much oil in there. First try changing the oil. I believe the recommended amount is 650 ml but it works much better at 500-550 ml. Maybe there is too much in there now.

Love it!! I was hoping for some good remarks.
