well its probably true now, you've called him a complete tit! Lets hope he doesn't use this board.

i ran most of my bikes, Beta, scorpa, gassers on motul 6002t @ 75ml to 5litres unleaded fuel, roughly 66:1 The mont, either silkolene comp 2sx or castrol a747 @ 62ml to 5 litres

the only time i get water in the monty airbox is after washing with the pressure washer. None gets in from riding through streams, just a beed of silicone between the box and rear fender does the job.

astars offer the most support, but they're not lasting me more than 8 months.

change em about every 3 months, or after a big crash landing on the bars. it's not worth the risk of mashing yer face and plus its a confidence thing. you can ride at 100% without the worry of em breaking on big hits. Look at fugi's bars at sheffield, they were probably brand new!

if you read the origional post, you'll find it's not my bike, just helping a friend.

THE STATOR PLATE ON THE PRO IS FIXED AND CAN'T BE ADVANCED OR RETARDED.

retarding the ignition will alter the power throughout the rev range. will have to look into the programmable ignition, need to speak with someone at the factory i guess. Tryin a larger main jet may be a benefit. will give it a try. Cheer all.

3 months

I've been racking my brains all morning on this one. On a Gas Gas 280 pro raga replica, there is just too much top end power, what i mean is from nothing to 2/3 throttle the power is fine, nice and linear, offering plenty of manageable grip, the problem starts when using the top end, last 3rd of the throttle, the power seems very lumpy, it tends to come in all of a sudden, very good for dry conditions but not good for slippery english sections. I am running out of ideas, we dont want to alter the bottom end at all, but there seems to be no way of softening the top end without the bottom. ANY IDEAS? lowering compression, reed valve, carburation is good, base gasket/head spacer, different electrics. I'm stuck. please help....... no i'm not switching camps just helping a friend.

sounds more electrical than anything else, probably the charge or pulsar coil beginning to break down behind the fly wheel. they are quite cheap and easy to replace. Or again take the flywheel off, if everything is covered in a white fungus (caused by dampness sat in there) that will also cause the spark to break down under load. Dry it all out, scrape all the ****e off and it should go.

Thats good news. Wonder if we'll ever see over 100 riders competing in a world round again. My ultimate ambition: to score a world championship point!! a long way off at the mo, but training hard.

i sort of considered it, might give it a go next year. would like to speak to people who have already done it.

if there was mud that deep, i'd go around it, save the c+s, brake pads and bearings.

The extra jets and needles were to put in after the bike has been run in, but if you are happy with the way the bike runs, i would recommend you leave it as standard.

Dont tape the holes over as it does not allow sufficiant air into the air box, making it feel choked up. The best thing to use is some mesh.

yep

Not giving any of my secrets away!!

dont cover the holes in the rear fender, i preped mine for the scott, taped the holes up to prevent water and shi7e entering the box, had a 5 min warm up around the start field and the bike was choked up due to restricting the air. Use the mesh or leave em open. I've thought abut using the mesh on the filter lid mouth, but never tried it.

The Renthal R1 chain offers oring performance without sapping power and it cost around

Mornin gary, were you riding anywhere yesterday? and how is the beta goin?

Very tricky mark, on the 04 rev3, the the top fork brace is part of the lower handlebar clamps. The tapered bars arn't a problem, (i fitted a set of renthals to my SY) but they wern't cheap at nearly

Can anyone tell me the web address for the Dougie Lampkin trials challange game. Now its quiet at work, i need something to do! I know it was mentioned not long ago, but never had chance to try it.

I use kevlay short fork protectors, they are
