I really like 4-strokes for the low end torque, quietness and no need to mix gas and oil. Would you say the carb issues would justify going with the fuel injected Montesa 4-stroke bike? Or does a Montesa have its own set of issues? Does anyone else make a 4-stroke trials bike these days besides Yamaha?
My 2-stroke Montesa has been relatively trouble free for the several years I've had it. It's just ridiculously hard to start when it's cold. When the bike is warm it's a one kick deal all the time, but if it sits for a few hours it sometimes takes 20 to 30 kicks to start. Aside from that, it's quite dependable for a 18 year old bike.
Would you say Montesas are still that dependable? Do you think a 4-stroke Beta would last that long?
I have a 2009 evo 300 4t n it runs perfect.. thats 15 yr old.

Hi guys can anyone tell me or link me to rear wheel bearing for my evo 300 4t 2014. Or a part number of the bearing...n is the front one different or same size...
Is their only one bearing on each side if the wheel or is there inner n outer bearings. ?
Also is it only the 4t evo bearing that will do it example, will the 250 do the 300. N is 2t the same as 4t, n does it need to be exactly for the 2014..would other years still be the same..
Yea tried the reset. N ye think the bank sensor could be at fault..its started only fur a few seconds. But in reality i was using body spray not easy start..i will get some EASY START tomoro n give it a go..if i can get it to keep goin n keep sprayin it, it may pull the fuel thru n run on its own. I was thinkin it may have got a bit o water in the fuel some way but a doubt it..tank never went under..
Hi guys n Happy new year.. 4 Ride...i had a fall the other day bike went down in a stream..theres no water in the air box. Plugs sparking ok. But will only start on easy start thru the airbox...fur a few seconds. Im thinking its a fuel issue...any ideas.
Hi guys. Im looking for a new rear tyre fur my monty 4ride..its fitted with a dunlop 803.i like the tyre. But use the bike mainly fur trails n roads..do do actual trials..its great grip on the road (soft) knoblles are ripping themselfs off especialy in the middle run 10psi
but ave been lookin at a mitas e01 anyone used this. Or any recomendations of a decent all rounder..
.yea my buddy took it back to dealership...he was one month outa warranty..but they changed the disc n pads......free...mickey oates glasgow..well done eh...
Hi guys. My buddies montesa 4ride...when applying front brake ye can feel a slight pulsating feeling thru the lever.? Wat causes this. Bikes brand new...only 10 miles on it..
thanks yes the main part number is the same but the suffix is different, a chap i know on another forum has replaced his hangers with the 4rt model the lever position is ok for him but its something i may have to take into consideration but at 6'4" and size 11 feet hopefully i wont have a problem with that
Am a 4r owner..my gaerne boots are size 14...im 6'5".20stone
I think you could need a new condenser..intermitiant spark or even rectifier..although i drowned mine...these were the culprits ghat stopped it fae starting...the spark was intermitant..worth a checking...
Ye think so. I think its a great bike. N i love the engine...its ma mechy jap lover who was sayin this....not me really...i just posted wat he was sayin...so dont shoot me...please..
Tried my condenser im another 4rt...it has a occasional spark. But not every kick. So suspect the condenser..maybe even the alernator is at fault...my pal said the whole bike is shi@$ nae wonder it was built in spain..as japan widnt put this stamp a bike out...but sayin that Honda have put their name on it....he says the stuff on chinese bikes are better than these components...needin a condenser...n theres no one in the uk has one...8th march us the earliest wel get one fae spain here in the uk....shocking really...
Before you try anything else just try raising the tickover, it's the large brass screw on the right hand side of the fuel injection. They tickover at about 1900 rpm, if it's any lower they won't start.
If your new to the bike you need to start it with a closed throttle so the tickover needs to be right. Is it a bad starter after you've reset the ECU?
So how do you set the tickover if you cant start the bike to start with.
hello guys any of you out there drowned your bikes and had an electrical fault afterwards as in no spark all seems well at present with mechanical stuff but no spark ? Im thinking the capacitor / condenser may have shorted but need to know are there any tests to check other than replacement IE resistance check ohms check etc cheers
