  1. Trying the learn this technique at the moment, getting better ever day. If someone out there that can wheelie very well sitting down could just give some in-depth pointers i feel that would help greatly thanks!
  2. Was trying to adjust the setting on the Olle' rear shock, but couldn't find the screw to adjust. I think my shock is upside down as on the service manual it shows the shock with the spring at the bottom and you can see the screw easily, however on the parts book its the way its on my bike the spring at the top and the black plain metal bit at the bottom. http://www.splatshop.co.uk/sherco-08-rear-shock-07-cabastany.html Mine is the opposite of this. Or does it make no difference, could just take the airbox off and get to the screw? Just wondering why they don't all come from the factory one way?
  3. Right thats good, ill try 2.5 next time i am out. So if its warmer its best to richen it a bit by turning it out 1/8 from 2.5 and in 1/8 when its cold? One other thing, last time i was out it drained the tank faster at 3 than before on the 33,118 at 3.5. Would the change in the jets make any difference?
  4. Just need someone to clarify that i have the right idea. The bike used to have a 33,188 but i felt they could do with a few numbers up so there could be more room for adjustment. With the 35,122 installed the bike ran much better at 3 turns out (think that's a bit rich with bigger jets). When the bike was warmed up idling in neutral i fiddled with fuel screw, finding that the revs started to drop just passed 3 turns out (is that because there is to much fuel overloading it?) and at 2 turns out it just started to get too lean with a delay in the throttle when quickly turned. So should i run in the middle at 2.5 turns out on the 35,122. It ran OK at 3 turns out, but it revs cleaner and faster at 2.5. Is 2.5 in the ball park for these up sized jets? Or am i way off.

  5. http://www.splatshop.co.uk/ajp96-clu-blade-silver.html http://www.splatshop.co.uk/ajp96-f-b-blade-silver.html Does'nt have the sherco part code, but i think they are the same ones that are on TrialsUK?
  6. Thanks mate, the S3 ones are nice but i prefer the metal looking ones. The levers in the links you posted look good are you sure they fit the Sherco master cylinder as they are different for gas gas beta.
  7. What are the other levers that work on a sherco master cyclinder, other than the AJP Mediun stock?
  8. Going to change the stem (steering) bearings soon, cleaned the old ones before so know how to get to them fine. But wondering if you need any special tools to remove and replace them?
  9. Thanks for the help! Bike runs and idles fine. Just wondering if 35 122 was rich for my height and what others ran at a similar height. Can someone explain what a rich bog is? If the standard is 33 120 for seal-level should i not really go down in numbers as there's less air
  10. Hi, just wonder what would give the best running. Bike - Sherco 2009 290 Pilot Jet - 35 Main Jet - 122 (Use to be 33, 118)
  11. Hi there i have a Sherco 290 2009, i have got a full new sticker set (real ones) to put on in the summer months when its nice and warm to help them stick. However i think every thing will be fine except the tank as it has paint on it then the sticker on top, so will it not peel all the paint off when taking the old sticker off and waste the tank. There was an 09 tank on ebay that have the paint ripped off from removing a sticker. Is there any way to remove the sticker and keep the paint on? Thanks!
