  1. As far as your stand is concerneed I had the very same problem with my '04 250 (too close too disk) so I too removed it and if I am completely honest with you 95% of the time it was unusable anyway. Ever tried standing on a nail in the mud? However my '07 has the disk rotor gaurd in place which not only has a rubber stop for the stand too rest against but also keeps it well away from the rotor. As far as the tab too make it easier too "kick" down there isn't one as standard but I am sure if you really want too continue using it, it would be an easy enough job for anyone armed with a welder

    I think you may find unless you have even less fingers than me you should only ever really need ring compressors for 4t's The 2t Beta is easy too get the top end off and on as long as you know how everything fits
  3. My exact thoughts when I watched it were "what are those pillocks doing trying too catch the idiots?"
  4. I'm a little confused? is the washer offending you?
  5. Heard lots of good things about Oxtar road boots I must admit! Now who on here has loads of money and rides lots? maybe a SSDT entrant could kindly buy them and test ride them for the masses?

    It's back! Re-Listed! but this time it appears not too have a reserve?
  7. If it were me i'd be looking for water in the carb and was it cold (weather) when you washed the bike? If it ran fine up until you cleaning it the problems with water running down the throttle cable could be the answer. If it was cold on the day you cleaned it i know from experience water can freeze in the carb very quickly you'd get the same kind of symtoms you have said and this happened to me on a Montesa 315 .....best of luck what ever is causing it. Left out in the sun for half an hour sort of gives it away what the weather was like!!! Been sunny here all day but I would certainley not be out in shorts and t-shirt! in fact it was pretty damn cold
  8. I have the same one registered too the classifieds as I do the forums? I would tell you how I done it but it was so long ago and my memory is more than poor!
  9. Now I'm sure I've seen soles for Diadora's and Hebo boots available too buy as an item? if so surely it'd be worth buying these and hobble along too your local cobblers?
  10. All this for one ride a year? Or is it Justins' birthday soon?
  11. I was just following a high top SWB Vauxhall Vivano whish is the same van so there be your answer (looked bloody horrible mind!)

  13. "Sixty is the worst age to be," said the 60-year-old man. "You always feel like you have to pee and most of the time you stand there and nothing comes out." "Ah, that's nothin," said the 70-year-old. "When you're seventy, you don't have a bowel movement any more. You take laxatives, eat bran, sit on the toilet all day and nothin' comes out!" "Actually," said the 80-year -old, "Eighty is the worst age of all." Do you have trouble peeing, too?" asked the 60-year old. "No, I pee every morning at 6:00. I pee like a racehorse on a flat rock; no problem at all." "So, do you have a problem with your bowel movement?" "No, I have one every morning at 6:30." Exasperated, the 60-year-old said, "You pee every morning at 6:00 and crap every morning at 6:30. So what's so bad about being 80?" "I don't wake up until 7:00"
  14. Should be changing the gearbox oil quite frequently anway. I used too do my '04 once a month or there abouts when I was using it every weekend And my '07 have been advised around every 20 hours
  15. barrybaines replied to mil's topic in Beta
    should be able (just) too start that one off with your fingers, can't remember exactley how I did mine but may of been that I started with that one first? just too start it? Then as you say a ball ended allen key is essential

  19. barrybaines replied to mil's topic in Beta
    It really should be quite easy make sure you have the rings in the correct place with locating pin in the gap have the piston at BDC you should be able too get the barrel over the first one then check the second ones position squeeze with finger and thumb and barrel on? I assume here that you took the rings off the piston and cleaned all the crap out from the ring slots?
  20. barrybaines replied to spud's topic in Beta
    Wow!!! Good old Beta must be doing this too pay for the development of the 4t! previous rev 3 gaurds cost about
