I started out on a 06 sherco 250. 6 months on the thing and no improvements, ended up hating it. So tried a twinshock and never looked back. Some bikes suite different people so try as many as you can before you spend out

Hi guys, got a new mikuni on the 248, just wondering what settings everyone else uses like mixture screw and needle settings, as mines bogging down like too much oil and the plug is dripping with fuel. Cheers

Brilliant thank you dave. I've got loads of 20/50 multigrade and loads of atf that's why I wonderd about t atf,works great in my beamish. Yea mate I did, works out the front bar was on the back and vice versa. Brakes are shockingly bad. Front brake works but Is to the bars!! Maybe get them relined Cheers Mat

What's the best oil to use in a 248 cota, anybody used ATF in the clutch?

Brilliant cheers dave, chains done, clutch is done, now got a problem with front brake, I've fitted a new cable but no matter how the cable or lever is adjusted there is no brake, Im thinking the brake bars the wrong length as if I unbolt it and move the drum then pull the lever the brake works. Looking at your first pic dave, my brake cable runs the other side of the fork leg. Cheers

Hi dave. That's brilliant thank you. Got another problem,with the front wheel I can't get it straight, does it have a spacer both sides or do both of them go the side of the speedo drive? Cheers Mat

Thanks guy's, any chance of pictures of chain tensioner? And possibly where to buy the correct one. Many thanks

Hi guys, Just brought a 248. Having trouble adjusting the clutch cable, any chance someone has a pic of where all the cables route as got a feeling it's routed wrong and taped to the frame. Also carb settings? It's a amal carb, L2627 410 if that means anything? Is it even the correct carb? Any help/advice is greatly appreciated Thanks Mat
