The fan controller is located within the headlight... How you could have resolved this without the controller is beyond me
You can remove the headlight and then remove the box off the headlight and mount it to a front number board with bolts. This is the way Beta UK tell you to do it for the SSDT. Unplug the lights but don't remove the wiring. Dead easy. The connector to the headlight is the one at the bottom. Map switch at the top. Kill switch on the far right. Main harness connector on the left and right. This is the rear view. When fitted all this faces the headstock.
Also, rear tyre will not hold air pressure. I can see where it is not sealing between the tyre and the rim. After reading a few posts, I tried WD40 and pumping it up to 60 psi but no luck. Any ideas what I can try next?
Have you tried swapping the tyre around and seeing if it will seat the other way around? Could be a bad bead on the tyre too. Take the tyre off, clean the rim well and try bead sealer (eBay probably the only place to get it at the moment...It is a thick sealant (brush applied from the tin to the beads) that should make it stop leaking as will take up any inconsistencies in the rim.

Covid-19 Update
In light of recent developments in the COVID-19 crisis, and following the address to the nation by the Prime Minister on the evening of 23rd March, the Auto-Cycle Union has today extended its suspension of all organising permits for motorcycle events until at least 31st May but will be constantly reviewed.
This move provides clear guidance to event organisers, clubs, venues, competitors, officials of the role that the Auto-Cycle Union must play in supporting the broader UK public health agenda.
Auto-Cycle Union Chairman, Roy Humphrey explained, “The government have required that we effectively lock-down for a period of three weeks, however given that the most vulnerable in our society are required to isolate for three months, we feel it only sensible to propose a longer suspension for all motorcycle sport. This is a time of national unity and we need to come together with the broader public community to do all we can to support this battle and ultimately save lives. This evening, Health Secretary, Matt Hancock said the Government is launching a new scheme to recruit 250,000 volunteers to support the NHS through the coronavirus pandemic. A quarter of a million volunteers, people in good health to help the NHS, for shopping, for the delivery of medicines and to support those who are shielding to protect their own health. We may not be involved in any sporting activities, but, we could help support the NHS through this pandemic!"
Auto-Cycle Union will continue to monitor the prevailing advice from the UK Government in respect of the COVID-19 international pandemic and will update the motorcycle community accordingly.
I would have thought no matter what engine you have in the bike the hopping and flicking etc would depend on the rider and chassis more than the engine.
Perhaps something lighter than a 4RT, for example weighs around 7KG more than a Beta Evo 300
Coming in March, Electric start RR and R models. 250/280/300cc These also retain the kickstart. This doesn’t replace the non electric start versions. It’s an extra model
Thanks for replying.im bloody lost on all this carry on.i have that manual and the pic on the front doesnt match any m150 in “real life” that I’ve seen.
i thought from looking around that that pic on the book is an earlier model.an origional sales brochure for “t” Sherpas doesn’t have that tank in it at all.......
every time I go for a part it becomes a mystery lol
The brochures always show the Spanish market models which would have the fibreglass slimline style tank and seat unit was first introduced on the M80 (well technically the Kit Campeon made available from the M49).
Good advice from @feetupfun as basically all Bultaco parts are interchangeable it is likely that this has happened!.
Frame number should be stamped on the headstock on the right hand (throttle side) of the bike. Frame should be stamped PB-150xxxxx (where xxxxx is the series number). P signifies 250 and B is Bastidor which is frame in Spanish.
Engine number should be stamped on the right hand crankcase (clutch side). Engine should be stamped PM-150xxxxx (where xxxxx is the series number). P signifies 250 and M is Motor.
Hi all,new to all this but enjoying my 1st bultaco.ive been researching about.pics etc,am I correct in saying that the correct tank is a one piece unit ,incorporating smooth side panels?
cheers chaps
The correct one for the UK model is as bullylover says and its a Homerlite seat and tank unit with a monza style filler cap. To see what it should look like, look at the Haynes manual front cover. Front Cover
The manual uses a model 151 which is the 350cc version of yours, the only difference being the engine. There are also some good side shots etc in the manual.
A question of lubrication
