  1. Dedicated new thread for this promising new wee beastie. Who has one or is waiting for theirs to arrive? I am curious how it stacks up against the aged Beta B/W 80. Looks like a big bike rear & small bike front. Very neat.
  2. 2023 update: CSP is doing an updated version of their TRS engine sump guard w/extra coverage for the pegs/frame protrusions. See second (right) row, second from the bottom: http://www.costaspecialparts.it/catalogo/piastra-paramotore.html or http://www.costaspecialparts.it/catalogo/images/ta-1066-ts.jpg?crc=225717534
  3. You can get a lever style fuel tap from these guys : https://www.trialsuk.co.uk/Beta-Fuel-Tap---EVO80REV80REV50---Lever-Style?search=fuel tap More efficient & easier to use.
  4. 4 X 18 like all big bikes. See here: https://betausa.com/content/SUPPORT_PDF's/evo_80_2014_senior_junior.pdf Make sure you are looking at the senior tire page & not the junior.
  5. Yes they do. I have the 6 inch version on my 125RR. Not as sexy as Renthal but functional.
  6. @Mountainbrad: The 2020 RR has an upgraded air box. Beefier plastic around the screws & different air intake. You have to buy the complete box though as the base is different too. I am afraid to ask but will any way. What is that top piece costing you each time?

    CDI failures

    Beta, Sherco/Scorpa & TRS all use Hidria CDIs do they not?
  8. @leembarnes: Did you change out the CDI(s) yourself & if so, how difficult was it?
  9. Sadly, not yet. There is a dimensional difference between these Braktec levers on the TRS & generic levers that are "supposed" to fit. I have Apico shorty levers from my Beta I tried on my TRS. They fit but there is a few MMs difference (+) from pivot to push pin & I didn't want to risk it. I slid my masters in as far as they would go & it gives about an inch of clearance from end of levers to end of bars.
  10. You are correct. I found some pix of a used 2018 RR w/CSP plate on Sandiford Racings website. The CSP covers the flywheel area better but the frame area in front of the pegs is still exposed. I made cardboard templates today, just have to do the hard part now & cut the aluminum.
  11. Anyone try one of these yet? Curious to know/see how much bigger if any than stock. There is zero pix/info out there so far.......
  12. @dwb5151 : Did you purchase this & if so how did it work out? There are zero reviews so far. Sorry to everyone else for zombie thread revival!
  13. You're good. My current & last bikes w/inline filters had a small bubble or space visible.
  14. @thumper80: What year/model is your TRS?
  15. Thank you @baldilocks & @taff_d !
  16. @taff_d: I hope that is correct. That is 2010 & previous Scorpa SY250 available from Talon in 10 to 14. Please post up when you get a chance to try it.
  17. Anyone had a chance to figure out if the smaller spline on the 18 & up RRs is the same as any other existing spline? Not seeing anything after market except "DOES NOT fit 18 & up RRs". Would like to try an 11 front/bigger rear for different ratios & longer chain/sprocket life.
  18. The TRS Ones were supposed to get the new kickstart for 2019. The RRs got the new design in 2018. There is a video on you tube under TRS USA showing the new design. If this is a poll, I would choose the new design. I haven't read of any issues either, I just like the new design better.
  19. Links from the TRS USA site: 2019 TRS One: http://www.trsmotosusa.com/documents/2019/2019 TRS One 300, 280 & 250 ficha tecnica - technical specs.pdf 2019 Raga: http://www.trsmotosusa.com/images/Raga_Racing_2019/TRS_RR_2019_ENGLISH_ tech_specs.pdf 2019 Gold: http://www.trsmotosusa.com/images/GOLD_EDITION_2019/2019_TRS_Gold_English_tech._specs.pdf The One says aluminum, the Gold & Raga don't specify. They are light bikes so that's what's important.
  20. Almost nothing surprises me anymore about this bike but cork? Luckily, I have always shut my petcock after every ride. Whoever spec'ed that lousy little slippery knob poor excuse for a petcock should be kicked squarely/firmly/repeatedly in the mommy/daddy button.
  21. Make sure you blow out the overflow ports/hoses as well when cleaning the carb. If I over oil my 2015 evo 80s oil filter it runs burbly rich but it it runs rich right from cold to hot.
  22. @Spence: Definitely look at mtb lights, one for your helmet & one for the bars. What kind of riding are you doing with the 24R? How far are you going or how is battery life? I have considered one but would have to buy a spare battery to cover the distance I want to go.
  23. @sirdabalot: That is a depressing list. I know what that is like. Two questions: When you say water in the airbox you are riding in very wet conditions? How/when did you realize the water pump wasn't pumping, constant boiling over?
  24. @sirdabalot Define not perfect: heavy, turn slow, expensive, fragile? I am considering a 2019 & looking for any negative feedback. All I have read has been positive. The RR seems to get the nod as it is only a few dollars more for the good stuff.

    beta 2019

    When did that "mismatch" start & what was the initial cause, an engine case redesign?
