I found the other post you mentioned: http://www.trialscen...on-the-2013-4t/

Ah, I suppose this ( '13 2t rear fender with airbox cover) would be possible on a '12 too?

spoke to some guys in my club, no one seems to have the tyre on pipe issue at the front; just a rumor I suppose.

@chuckindenver - thanks for that , the pictures illustrates the idea nicely. This is high on my todo list!

I pulled the trigger on a 2012 Evo 250t this week. Been going over the bike this weekend, will give some feedback in a new thread.

Sorry bud, can't give you comparative feedback - never owned a GG. I just got the '12 Evo250t after a '04 Rev3, only ridden it about 30 mins and I'm already loving it.

@crazy_dave - I've found in other threads people mention Engine Ice (among others) In other news, I sold the Rev3 and bought a '12 Beta 250t ! Spent the weekend taking it apart, will give some feedback in a new thread...

Someone somewhere said something about the front tire rubbing against the header pipe when the fork is compressed?!

thanks for the advice guys

Any comments on the Vauxhall Vivaro?

Hi trialsters, After realising I'm never gonna stop doing trials I'm thinking of upgrading my '04 Rev3 270 to a newer bike. I've been reading through the forums for comments and things to take note of about the various year models, and I've found some on the Evo '09/'10 [For example: Link 1]. Talk of rear wheel bearings, soft rear shock etc. Any advice /comments /suggestions on the 2t '11/'12/'13 models, whats good/bad/problems about them? handling characteristics? motor characteristics (I'm aiming for a 250)? working on the bike I mean, comparing models, so should I rather go for an 2012, or a 2011...etc..., anything a pain / better one year over another?

Whats the latest? Any conclusions as to what can be done, fixes to be made, replacement guards that has flex in them, certain year models?

Hi trialistas, In my continued hunt to find the reason why my engine running so hot ( http://www.trialscen...it-05-rev3-270/ and http://www.trialscen...ns-a-beta3-270/ ) I've starting taking apart the bike again to see if I have blockage somewhere because everything else seems fine. When I took off the cylinder head I found these strange combustion/burn patterns (underside of head) and what looks to me like some sort of "blow by" past the head gasket. Now, when I last assembled the head I used a brand new gasket and I torqued the bolts to the specs given by the Beta manuals. Can anyone explain these? Does it have a correlation to my hot running engine? Thanks Album with more photos:

I'm not familiar with all the online shops that sell these, I could only find a costa parts impeller for a sherco, I need rev3... where can order online that will ship international?

Just a quick update. After getting it all back together with no major issues (I've added more pictures to the previously posted album of the work done), I noticed the bike running hot (I posted about this elsewhere http://www.trialscen...ns-a-beta3-270/) , so I went through the jetting steps and found the spark plug running white at half throttle. Dropped the clip from the top to the bottom to get rid of the white, but still having a hot running bike (the frame, silencer, even the swingarm gets warm). So I opened the water pump cover to see if the impeller was turning with the kickstarter, and it did. Eventually noticed that the work I did the first time round to fix the corrosion, was coming apart! I've cleaned it up again, very thoroughly, taking my time, using acetone multiple times. This time I'm going to use Pratley Steel putty which seems to be more suited to this job. The images of the job so far: @magicmat At which point do you decide it is too far? The corrosion didnt go all the way through the cases; ie, taking the case off and looking at the other side it looks perfect.
