When the bike is running lean, it usually makes the power more lumpy and harder to bring the power in smoothly on the bottom end, bad for slippery conditions because it makes the rear wheel want to break traction. When you have it slightly rich, its good for the slippery stuff because the power is more linear and not as snatchy. Although it may not rev completly out every time it is more favourable at this time of the year, (its like running with the timing slightly retarded). When it is set up perfect, the engine should feel strong throughout the rev range, without any peaks or troughs in the power.
The mixture screw makes massive changes, the weather has alot to do with how your bike runs. I agree with charlie, if you ride on a tick over it 3rd/4th gear then crack the throttle open the engine should not faulter, it should want to throw you over the back and keep on pulling like that until it is flat out.

Hmm. Intresting, heres mine
Stronger wheels
Redisgn rear linkage that doesn't get damage from rocks and steps
More adjustability on the timing and or power
I dont see air filters as a problem, they do their job well enough.
Billet calipers and master cylinders for increased feel and performance.
an anti scratch coating for frames, rims, engine covers which is easily
removed and placed.
A nice Billet alloy frame for my mont.

Brilliant result for dougie, shame grimbo couldn't have made it a one, two. Well done to Shaun, a big achievement in just riding one of those trials. Its got to be a good basis for his future, and a great boost for his confidance.

That last post was not by me J Sunter. It was posted by a moron on our road bike dept! (and his mate Baby David)

I wouldn`t bother. its only a dirt bike.****

Rekon it must be the Gas Gas, They seem to need the most work most often. The scorpa surprised me, although it is tricky to work on, you dont seem to get many problems. Probably resulting in less overall working time.
maybe?

Give derek a bell, he will probably let you test them in the local wood area.

yep, whites at darlington, Sherco 290, Gas Gas 125/250/280, montesa 315, beta 250. All 2004 models, only the scorpa's we don't have in.

when Honda took over the montesa marque, part of deal was to always produce a trials bike, and thats what they have done. They have kept costs down, got it more or less right on the drawing board and its proved time and time again to be a winning formular.
Why do you need more power, does the bike not produce enough? Is flat out in third too soft for you? I have not come up against anything that a 250 will not go up. Alot of riders seem to be under the misconception that more power makes them a better rider. wrong. More power can mean more problems to deal with
An underpowered bike will bring the best out of your riding. If you can make a 125 go vertically up 6ft without a kicker then your going to get on a 250 and it will feel like a main road.

I think these are the part no's, its a bit of guess work but fairly sure they will be similar. I can get my 04 parts book tomorrow and give you the correct no's.
