I had a similar problem on my Beta TR34. The rebound on early forks isn't great. I tried various things but in the end settled on heavier oil and it stopped the top out.

Thanks for the reply and info. Cheers

Does anyone have the (original) correct rear shock length for a 1989 TR34C? Thanks

Hi, Im not sure this helps but........ I have a Campionato and recently had ( or so i thought) an issue with the ignition. I obtained another stator fitted it and kicked it over with the plug resting on the head to check the spark. There was no visible spark even though i was in the garage where the lighting is not brilliant. Felling rather fed up i checked the connections and wiring etc but found nothing. I eventually put the plug back in and tried it. It started and has continued to do so. Maybe worth trying for what its worth.

Hi I have recently purchased a 1989 Tr34 Campionato. The carb has been changed from the original dellorto PHBH26TD to a Mikuni VM26 (I'm unsure if it genuine or a copy). The bike runs ok at low speeds through sections but when the throttle is opened up for a climb or the tackle a larger obstacle it seems to bog down. Checked the plug and it is black and sooty.I have stripped the Mikuni and checked it over, the plan was to put a rebuild kit in it but soon found that the pilot and main jets have been messed with. For example the main jet said it was a #87.5 but it was way bigger than that. like wise the pilot has been increased in size over the stated #20. This was done by comparing with new jets I had. I believe in or around 1990/91 Beta fitted a Mikuni VM26-208 carb to the bikes instead of the Dellorto so i would like to know if the VM26-208 carb is available (I can only find a VM26-606)and what is the difference between the 606 and the 208? Or would I be better off getting a new Dellorto PHBH 26SD as an alternative? Thanks in advance

Hi Mike Thanks for the offer. I have ordered a recon kit and some jets for the Mikuni so I will try to get it running right with this carb. Once (if) I can get it running better at the top end I will then consider what to do from there. Will see you this weekend if your riding:-) Andy

That's useful info, thanks

Hi Mike I did think about that but wasn't sure about the jetting. Do you think they would be the same?

Thanks b40rt

Hi rgvlc thanks for the info. The bike has a Mikuni on it now but I as I am unsure of its history (I have recently bought the bike). It isn't running properly and the carb looks very old so I'm just deciding whether to replace it with another Mikuni or go back to the original Dellorto.I don't suppose you know what setup (jets, neddle etc) was used as standard on the Mikuni's do you? Thanks

Hi Can anyone recommend a replacement carburettor for a 270cc TR 34 Campionato? Thanks

Great video, thanks:-)

Try bmz.fr You may need to use the browser translator unless you speak french:-)

Thanks for the info. I have tried Steve who was great help with some other parts but no guard:-( I was more interested to see if another TR owner had found a NS guard that could be modified to work. I will keep looking. Thanks for the help.

I have a 1989 TR34C. Parts for these bikes are difficult to find especially the rear guard. So I thought maybe someone may have had some experience with sourcing and fitted an alternative rear guard maybe a Gara or Techno for example? I know its a bit of a long shot but I'm you never know:-)

Hi bashplateYes I'm pretty sure,unless im going mad? Here are a couple pf photos looking down inside the leg. This shows the top bush This photo shows the top and lower bush plus the plastic/nylon sleeve between them. You may understand now why I find it strange that I can't find a part number in the Honda parts list. I may just take them out and then try to match them with something from another bike.

Hi jkmr1 yes i've seen this and it the same as my manual. It doesn't show the bushes that are within the fork leg. Cheers

Hi all Has anyone had experience with replacing the front fork bushes on a TLR 200 (35mm forks)? I have a set stripped down for an overhaul and noticed that the bushes are showing signs of wear. How easily should they come out? Interestingly, there is no part number showing in the parts manual for the bushes! Maybe they are not supposed to be replaced? Any help appreciated.

motomike Thanks for the info. Do you make the covers?

Hi 4strokeIt's a good question. Here in NZ, trials isn't as popular as in the UK so the restrictions on bikes is not so severe. As long as you have an aircooled bike you can ride. We have late aircooled GasGasers through to TL's and even some old british bikes competing against each other. The other reason for wanting to do this is that bike building is fun Regarding your offer of measurements etc, yes please especially the front mount for the shock. Also some good photos be be really appreciated. I'll pm you a drawing if you don't mind and perhaps you could fill in the measurements for me? Thanks

Hi motomike thanks for the email. When you say you have the tank cover mould do you mean its the mould that was used to make the cover or you have a tank cover ready to be fitted to a bike? I hope that makes sense cheers

eHi Mike yes I would be interested in the shock. looks like another trip to you place Ill give you a call. cheers Andy
