  1. One good point there is the lever I have an 010 and the bike came with a shorty lever, swapped output for the long lever and the geometry is different and although it has no effect on clutch drag it improves clutch feel substantially

    Evo 2013 Air Screw

    You could also make your own with a short piece of old speedo cable and silver solder
  3. LOL, we get the odd black bear, lots of deer and a moose or two Minders don't have to carry a large caliber rifle to guard you from the wildlife, that's kind of interesting for sure but I'm glad I don't have to watch for Elephants in a section
  4. Sag is not applicable as its to allow the wheel to drop into a hole at speed and not affect the chassis, we don't have this speed thing Springs are suited max of 180lb rider stock and probably need to be changed for heavier guys and its all feel Ryan Young teaches that you set up the front and rear independently Having said that, it's tough to get setup advice as its completely subjective, some like lively and some don't, you want the back to have some bounce, not completely damped like MX But not too much so it kicks of obstacles

    Engine Rattling

    Ya my 07 was a bit fuel fussy, I ran some ring free through it to decarbon and it was much much better But if its rattling at idle then is piston skirt wear or shrinkage from overheat And I have heard of crank bearings going on them but I would think that would produce a growl and deep knock from down low in the motor
  6. I don't really know, never ridden the 4 stroke, I had a rev 3 2t and liked it Quantity of power is just not a big factor, quality is more important, you do most things with weight big power isn't really that important
  7. How bad could it be? The old chassis is not a easy to ride as an Evo is so its not a current model and wont feel like it But if its clean and well taken care of and the price is right then get it, if it turns out to not suit your riding style then punt it and find what works better for you It may be your first trials bike but like all of us, it won't be your last
  8. There are few perfect moments in life And your kids provide most of them

    Rev 3 Head Bolts

    Borrow another torque wrench Torque a nut or bolt Felt pen the socket and the work Loosen Use the other torque wrench and torque to same value and see if the felt pen marks line up We use this to check cylinder head torque etc, works well If the marks don't line up then the 2 wrenches are different
  10. You may be doing that, have someone watch you or better yet video you so you can watch yourself My riding buddy did that last fall and it really helps to see yourself and the movements you make I practice wheelies into, over and onto everything I can Small logs and rocks are great practice just to help with timing, when you get to bigger ones its one less thing to concentrate on
  11. I presume that system is designed for an automatic transmission scooter Full throttle in neutral?, full throttle on a stand in 6th gear? Full throttle in 6th gear on a road with load will give you a different plug color I would not rely on jetting a manual transmission bike with no load like that
  12. That's a different problem ken says his pilot is too rich, you made your transition circuit richer My 010 feels lean on the pilot, my Rev was the same The air screw really only cleans up idle and just a hair open throttle, after that there is almost no effect Pilot is partial throttle to about 1/3 after that it flows constantly so it can slightly richen all circuits but minimal effect Then needle and then main above 3/4
  13. I care Personally I think stop and hop is the signature of trials, it sets it apart from every other kind of riding and I enjoy indoor the way it is The way Tony hits a wall, fails, hops backward and attempts it again is outstanding I hope no stop does not come to indoor
  14. No no no Your minder measures it all up and stands there with one of those pointers that teachers use On stuff like this size I sometimes just do what they call a roll up in bicycle terms You pretty much just hit it with the front wheel at the 3/4 point, it pops the front end high and the back just kicks up and on top Doesn't work on undercut stuff very well but on low logs etc its good
  15. Hey that's cool that it's a cheep fix and only 1.5mm Makes me think, if you were very careful installing the flywheel I bet there is 1.5mm of radial play in the flywheel that far from center Maybe it was all the way fwd on the key and timing could have been out that much from new To do it again maybe a guy could load the flywheel all the way back with a flywheel holder as you are sliding it up the taper and torque it down
  16. I bet the scooter oil is for oil injection systems, not pre mix I wouldn't use it
  17. The service manual says 85 watts
  18. Hey Steve I googled "How much lube should I use in a Tranny" turns out there's this guy named Fantic And he ........ummm.....he wasn't using motor oil
  19. LOL, that took the guy hours to edit
  20. Hey Steve, I can't PM you, says you cannot receive new messages LOL
  21. Thanks, Ya I will give that a try, I also need to measure the shim in the clutch, it's a small amount of drag that causes it It shifts by rev matching with no clutch rather well, but I am very hesitant to up shift in a section If I load the shifter and hit the kill switch it will shift as soon as the engine stops Clutch action after removing the glue is very good, some oils are better than others, the oil I had in there last tended to foam, a little comes out the breather, so I'm giving Bel ray a shot Then some Motorex then the heck with it, TMDT at that point
  22. Hey it's where every one is at one time If you compete and finish last and get a lot of 5s you will still love it when you are done Get out there, the people are great and the experience is excellent
  23. Billy, never tried to pick a fight If I said pistons spin round and round one would expect another to explain that they go up and down Yes some of us do it for a living, motorcycle mechanical diagnosis and technical training is what I have done for 28 of the 33 years I have worked in the industry Cheers to you
  24. I think you have a problem there Tires are not supposed to come off the bead when filling with air, might explain why it spun on the rim and tore your valve stem off
  25. I myself keep thinking I will find an oil that lets my bike shift For the love of god why can't a 2010 model motorcycle find neutral just once with the engine running!! (Ya the 2012 and up Beta's shift well) Seems like every other bike other than trials bikes can do it It certainly is linked to the clutch as once the engine is off it shifts quite nicely So, I think if clutches were perfect and all bikes shifted smoothly no one would ask what oil is best Let you know what Bel Ray does for me LOL
