2018 280 RR
Hi.sorry, i did mean the head spacer, its a 1mm spacer that i have fitted. I did have the low compression head insert fitted to start with but was advised that the 1mm head spacer was better and that it was inadvisable to fit both the head spacer and the low compression head at the same time. I have read another thread on here that seems to imply that someone has both fitted at the same time.

Beta Rev 4T, cant select gears
Had a problem with the gears on my Beta Rev 4t 2008 today. The gear change shaft just rotates up and down but nothing appears to be attached to it. .( it definitely isnt the lever just going around on the shaft) Fearing the worst on this one. Does anyone have any ideas Many thanks

TRS 280 RR 2018 freshen up
Hi a few questions 1 - i am trying my freshen up my 2018 280rr. i am thinking of getting the frame powder coated and fitting some new decals. Would a set of 2020 decals fit (ie, is the frame the same for a 2018 and a 2020). 2 - has anyone used Amped decals as they are less than half the price of TRS ones. 3 - i have fitted the low compression head insert but didn't notice much difference, can i also fit a thicker head gasket or is it one or the other 4 - i want to change fork oil. I am 100kgs and already have the heaviest spring. Any suggestions on what grade fork oil to use and how much. many thanks for your help

280RR low compression head insert
apologies, i wasn't very clear - there is some info on dropping a tooth on the front sprocket to tame them a bit but im unsure how that would be different from riding in a gear lower

280RR low compression head insert
i now realise that you can also get a thicker head gasket / spacer. can you fit this as well as the low compression head insert or is it one or the other ? Also, i generally ride everything in 2nd or 3rd gear. What would i gain by going one tooth down on the front sprocket that i couldnt achieve by just riding in 1st or 2nd ? thanks very much

Hi Fitted a low compression head insert to my 2018 280 RR to hopefully soften it a bit. are there any carb adjustments or anything else that i should do when changing to this low comp insert. Also, has anyone found a suitable replacement for the awful radiator filler plugs that round off so easily, Many thanks
