Thanks for the replies, the bike is nearly 100% original so I want to try to get it back to original.I need to get powercoating from the fork legs anybody have any ideas?Mike

Hi, Am restoring a TL250E 1975 model, at present mostly powdercoated red. What colour was the original frame,and what is the best way to remove powercoating from the casings, fork legs and wheel hubs. Anybody done this before? Mike

The cooling fan is louder than the exhaust note, sound like a scooter. Mike

Must agree with you the 4rt brings a smile to your face, the only other was my 520 KTM. Just bought an eve 4t 300, build quality, well you gets what you pay for. It is easier and lighter to ride but still no smile. Maybe that grows on you while you are trying to get it restarted. My 2006 repsol had a terrible clutch until I changed the plates for the 2005, no problems for over four years, still cleans up like new.She will be coming out of retirement if I cannot get the Beta clutch to work.

Can you still get 2004 parts? and where did you end up with the needle setting? Mike

Hi,have already raised the needle to the top, set the mixture sccrew four turns out and increased the tickover. What did size did you change the jets to? We have a trial this weekend so I'll see how she go's, would'nt want to try to pull the carb out again if possile. Mike

Hi, Has anybody changed anything from standard, on an Evo 4t 300, gearing etc.First ride today and seems a bit "twitchy" on slow tight turns. Also fid it easy to stall compared to the 4rt. Mike
