  1. Hi All, Has anyone ever fitted a PWK 24mm FLATSLIDE CARBY to their Trilas bike? I've fitted a PWK 28mm to my old Sherco. But was told, at the time, that the PWK 28mm, being bigger than the 26mm Dellorto, That the low-end power would not be as consitent....something to do with the speed of the air going through the Carb. Anyway the PWK 24 looks very much like the PWK 28. But maybe a bit shorter in height. Which I thought might be good to fit to a Beta too. What do you think? Best of balance. Neo

    How Much Folk Oil

    Hi copemech, It's like WOW!!!....a completely different flipping bike!!! I filled them up to 110mm (FTT), wt2.5....I'm a light weight and that suits me fine. But I just can't believe how easy it is to drops-off

    How Much Folk Oil

    Hi all, I just wanted to confirm the amount of folk oil I need in each leg, for my 06 Sherco 250. Also, why hasn't Sherco released an 06 maintenance manual/chart for this bike? Best of balance. Neo
  5. Any of you guys read this? http://www.trials.com.au/absolut/article.php?articleID=1076 If you can read it.....how about how an English translation ?? Best of balance. Neo

    07 Sherco

    I'd vote for the 250 too. It winds up a bit quicker than the 290. Which I find much better when I want to ride the back wheel for a short time. Once you drop the throttle on the 290, that wheelie is all but over. But either way.....Best of Sherco balance. Neo

    Hi bad fruit and Half a tire Righ, The above was just an update (as a number of good hearted people have express real concern) not a further complaint. I was just looking for some "jesty" replies to my questions. So sorry to have got you out of bed. Best of balance. Neo

    Hi Gents, Just to let you know that so far, we've fixed up the following things on my friends Beta:- 1. The front hub disk mounting holes 2. Rebuilt the rear wheel. with a new hub. 3. Replaced the kickstart lever 4. Replaced the gear lever 5. Replaced the handle bars and grips 6. Got a new front mudguard...but need a mudguard bridge. 7. Got a new rear mudguard...but can't fit it yet because the top sub-frame arms are bent down. 8. Repacked the steering bearings...but I think they really need replacing soon. 9. Replaced the front sprocket. 10. Cleaned up the chain....it was a real ****ty mess. 11. Fitted an o-ring to the muffler connection....but it is still too loose because the muffler is damaged inside. 12. Replaced the pegs. 13. Replaced the chain block. 14. Replace the treacle in the gearbox 15. Bought and new carb inlet rubber. As the old one is cracking. But can
  9. Does anybody know what GasGas mean by this..."Coaxial Selector of GAS GAS (patented)"... in their 07 bike specs? Best of balance. Neo

    I think this is a clear differentiator between your experience and my own. Oh an when you get bored of all those spare bikes. Drop me a line and I

    As we've seen many times on TA. A dealer just places an add for the private seller. But in this case the dealer also claimed to have ridden the bike. And gave it the thumbs up. I

    I would add that the well know reseller (in the City that this bike came from) did recommend the bike as "Outstanding Value" and "Rides great with exception to a loose muffler mounting". I was unaware that this kind of "Interstate Dumping" went on from reputable suppliers..

    I'm not an Aussie by birth. So maybe your assumptions are incorrect? Who said it was cheap? Easy...just get on, ride, then try and work on the bike....it's that

    Bikes don't win Championships....riders do......Plus the fact, like most folk I'm not a Championship rider ...so I don't give a s**t about who won what on whatever bike. Over here, a Beta mudgard is almost twice the price of a Sherco one. Best of balance. Neo
  15. I've been working on a friends 2002 Rev3 which has clearly been abused by previous owners. But while working (and on the rare occasions riding) this bike. I have been recalling all the great things I
  16. Thanks for the advice Betarev3 and Slapshot 3 I'm going to lay the bike on it's side and let the peneratrating oil soke right in, for a day or so....Then it's impact driver and big hammer time!!! But I can't say I'm too impress with having to do this on a bike that's just 5 years old. Best of balance. Neo

    Fuel Ratio

    Thanks copemech, I just have to keep putting these messages out there. So 2nd hand buyers end up with better bikes all round. We also have to keep in mind that we're riding a hightech engines.....and not a flipping lawn mower Best of balance. Neo
  18. Hi KTM, You can get a 12v electric impact wrench from Repco for about $75. I've found mine very handy. And you'll need it when you change the fork oil too. Or bring your bike up the freeway to my place and I'll sort it out here for you. Best of balance. Neo PS. After you've adjusted the timing you can test it out on the rocks up here...... but please..... leave any other Enduro/MX/SuperCross bikes, you might have, at home

    Fuel Ratio

    "80:1 with synthetic oil and high test pump gas" is the best for these bikes......Remember you can't clean out a Shreco exhust box. So you must keep the gunk levels as low as possible. Best of balance. Neo
  20. All I know, from reading past Postings on TA and TC, is that if you reatard the the timming too much the bike can run really hot. Someone did expalin the reason, but I can't recall it now. Best of balance. Neo
  21. Watch out!!....your bike may start to over heat!! Best of balance. Neo

    Rear Shock

    Shecro replaced my 06 Shock after the base of the shock mounting fell off. The replacement one has the grub screw but the original one did not. But it might be easier to remove the tensioner ring and drill-out, tap and fit a grub screw yourself. I
