I think that the "melted" overflow pipe is in fact a hole cut there on purpose to stop the pipe syphoning fuel from the carb. Poor starting = clean your pilot jet - again. Reset tickover speed. p

Here in the south of England, you don't see many old/real Montesas at Classic trial competitions. Some Bultacos and Ossas at every meet, but very few Montesas, despite them being quite common back in the day. I wonder why? Engines difficult to work on?

A decent side view of the lower fork would help.

What size shoes/boots are you? Adult size or children's size?

Supazilla, if you trespass on other people's land with your bike then you will likely be hearing the phrase 'Ello, 'Ello, 'Ello yelled into your ear!

Just wondering which bits are supposed to be original? The more I look, the more I see different. Tank, seat, front wheel, hub, forks - the list is endless. Should have kept it original and not messed about with it. I have a 2022 TRS that was also used in the film and ridden by Fonda, McQueen and Elvis too. $100,000 and it's yours!

Second-hand boots? You may need some of this: Value Health, Anti Fungal Foot Powder Pack, 2 packs of 75gram : Amazon.co.uk: Health & Personal Care

Just re-read your post. Gas or petrol mix should be about 70:1 not 100:1. Might be trying to seize up!

Could be the main jet blocked, or the choke on/partially on. Dirty/blocked air filter?

Or a float issue - but same outcome. take it apart and investigate.

To start with I would check the level of the brake fluid! If ok then fit a new set of Galfer brake pads and clean the brake disk with some brake cleaner. Spray the cleaner on a rag, then rub it on both sides of the disk. (Don't spray it directly on the disk as you will likely wash the grease out of your wheel bearings). If this still doesn't improve matters, then replace the brake fluid. If still no luck, then get a brake seal service kit. If you are still not happy then replace as stated in the above post. I had a (new) 2014 Evo and the brakes were fine.

Don't be afraid to mess about and experiment with it. It is the best way to learn. Take photos and measurements before you start, then if it goes wrong, or is worse, then you can just put it back to where it was beforehand.

Buy them from a dealer in France. No Brexit supply issues there. Cost, inc postage may well be less than in the UK.

First, fill the fuel tank up completely, then try. If not, then there is a hole somewhere in the fuel supply/vent pipe, which is about two feet long. Depending on where the hole is, it will either suck air or leak fuel. Replace. Or, there is a hole in the pipe coming from the crank case, which pulses the fuel pump. o

Jealousy!

I had a 2014 Sherco 125 which had a right hand kick start. A lovely bike which was very light.

Places to ride are becoming hard to find. When I was a boy we used to go down the local woods on a Bantam or C15. You would get told to bug**r off by the farmer, but nothing would happen! It's a totally different situation today. As you know, Fry's Bottom, At Chelwood, Bristol, is now under threat of closure by the local Council Planners. There is a petition here: Frys Bottom Trials – Trials Practice Wood and Camping Ground No idea what is happening there now as their site has not been updated recently.

The coil is in two parts/halves - one for ignition and one for lights.

What size is your front sprocket?

Another Coffin Dodger here! You are as old as you feel. Get out and enjoy yourself, because you are a long time dead (as my Father-in-Law would often remind me - bless his soul). Any club on the Easy route will likely be ok to start with. However Championship rounds might be best avoided, Have fun.

Rough idling? According to some Conservative MPs, including Truss, Raab and Pritie Patel, the English are the worst idlers in the world. Is this Spanish bike worse? Asking for a friend. British workers 'among worst idlers', suggest Tory MPs - BBC News

A 2018 Beta Evo 200 should NOT need an engine rebuild unless it has been run on neat petrol or the throttle jammed on full. Not your bike is it?

Best advice is to forget this abused unknown and find yourself another bike. There will be another good Evo 200 along shortly. Always remember Mr Johnson's mantra - never tell the truth. Just sayin.

Don't be afraid. Just go along, take your bike and have a go. Don't worry about winning. Just have fun!!!
