  1. Sherco 250 Carb Setup

    in Sherco

    Posted

    I have just bought a 2016 Sherco 250 and it seems to be running a little rich and smoking a bit. Checking the mixture screw on the Keihin carb it is only half a turn out. Is this about right for this bike / carb set up?

    I am running the fuel mixture at 70:1.

    Thanks for any help!

  4. Daft Trials Injuries

    there was a steep slope dropping down into the river at bayford woods. It was a bit muddy so I just rolled in (off the brakes). Came in a bit fast, front wheel locks in the sand I get thrown over the bars head first into the cold water.

    Not very nice riding a cold trial in the middle of december after going for a swim :guinness:

    Hey Fred,

    have you tried emailing your local club or centre?

    I am in a similar situation to your son and was told I am not able to ride anything bigger than a 125 (in any class) until I turn sixteen by my clubs (berkhamsted mcc) secretary though this may be different in your centre.

  11. What Size Pilot Jet?

    in Beta

    Posted

    Hey all,

    I know ive asked before though since i have swapped a size 50 pilot jet for a size 30 one on my beta rev 3 2004 125.

    The change has took the bike from being too rich to being a little bit lean.

    I have also rang Lampkins who think it could be 30 though are not sure.

    Does anybody on here know the standard size for my model?

    cheers

    hey all,

    im in the middle of updating my website though have came across a small problem.

    my background is an image though the borders on the tables are block colours and therefore stand out.

    would there be a way of writing the border colour as transparent or of setting the border colour as an image e.g. border=http://www.picture.com/address

    thanks

    Thought you had a beta 125 Jack?

    A Scorpa is not the bike for you, if maintainence is an issue get some one to show you the ropes, I'm sure ypu can do the ordinary stuff yourself, if not I will show you what to do maybe next trial at Nash Mills?

    Hey Nigel,

    yes I do have the Beta though im not keeping it.

    I'd had half a year and then the stator went.

    Fixed the stator and then something else went within two trials.

    After fixing the problem and riding the bike around the garden a loud bang comes out of the bike and know it doesn't run.

    The plugs (NGK BP5RES) are also turning black after one lap.

    I'm asking because I want my next bike to be able to finish the trial :thumbup:
