px mine a month or so a go for about 1200 it needed a few bits and dealer is advertising it at 1600

mine has got a fast throttle will experiment but like the power at the mo still smooth low downand i ride in sticky horrible mud did th 05s have fast throttles my mates second hand one has

na surely it will be worth more being an ex-kinell bike it must be awesome

and on about beta before you got that pro thing

im loving my 06 250 at the mo before i had a 02 250 from nearly new. i was all ways a high gear person but since having the new one been using first. really like the progressive power but thought it was on a slow throttle will check though and possibly experiment. its got the smoothness of my old 02 but livens right up when you open it up which i love for steps and our muddy banks we get down here. and they should come with flywheel weights as far as i know (something the gassers lack)

ordered parts friday 12.15 there next morning ready for a trial the next day

saw one on sunday. i can see one sitting in my shed soon

yea i can only get the top half and yea those bars look a bit special.

yea im should be riding mortenhampsted on sunday if not i'll go to holsworthy up hartland my brother and dad are riding that one.

i rode that one on my 02 beta with red hebo kit helmet boots. i chickened out and rode the clubmen route rather than the experts. what route were you riding.

used spray contact adhesive ( same as carpet glue) and my grips stayed there but twisted after a while on the inside. this used proper grip glue and they havent move yet!

beta have got ties to suzuki. there trail bikes use suzuki however there enduro bikes have ktm engins so maybe a beta 320. and i to love the smoothness of the my beta

pretty certain my dads 03 250 pro has one piece arbox rubber

yea well done doug to start.especially as he had a night of agony.

first thing i thought when i saw those pipes.maybe its just us being from the sothwest in the mud.

started riding when 8, now 16 puch 50 mx (shared with 1 brother, i carried on he stopped) ty80 (this was when i caught the disease, never realised there wasn't a cure. another little brother then had it.) 02 beta rev3 250 (big jump) 04 sym jet 50 scooter (de-restricted but thats it) TOO SLOW! also look after ride my dads 03 gasser pro 250 and little brother 02 beta rev 50 got them all apart from the ty

theres a topic somewhere on fork seals on my beta but that was a 02 and i think yours has got upside down forks so is probably different.

yea but it was my fault for entering. rode firts time up a route and it was a national. nearly killed me and the bike. one point i was wondering why i do it. i was pleased to get from one end of the section to the other. enjoyed it in a way but i'll be right down at the end of the results.

nice. hope that chain guard dont get caught on anything. i wonder if it will clear better down here in the mud they block right upand you cant clear them easily in a trial. also the bits where the bolts go for the flywheel cover are thay nice and strong mine have now split due to being old and previous overtightening. take it its being painted.

down here in the wet mud i never use 1 st on my beta. 2nd sometimes last trial was slightly damp so third every section and 4th for hills and possibly tight section if really need the grip. gasser totally different tend to ride a gear lower on it.

not often enough use to be just about everyday when i was still at school but that was only self taught for about an hour. now its once on the one evening for a couple of hours riding with someone better than me and years of experience and an event or two or practicing on the weekends.

stu you updated to a 03

mine wont go blue anymore because theres rust there. thats a beutiful exhaust compared to mine but then you dont live down here in the southwest mud of the UK

could be carb set up wrong or not good enough fuel being used.

havent seen it down here in local garage or st austell whs smiths
