Bought an Airoh Tr from MRS r. Fits well, but chin strap too short. Adjusted it to maximum as well. Dissapointed as it is a lovely helmet and I have missed the returns date
Uphill and slippy muddy entrance to section. Tried starting off in 3rd with weight over back. Could not even get into section. Same if I sat down and padded. could not get initial grip to start off.
That's interesting, I have been trying to find a way of fixing a drinks bottle to a rev 3 . Will try this unless any other ideas are forthcoming. Cannot use cut inner tube fixed over centre of h'bars as stop button would not be accessable
I am being a bit thick here but how does the wd40 get past the flywheel or are there holes in it. I own a rev 3 which has a flywheel weight over the flywheel so cannot get to windings
After a trial I have black goo dripping out of the joint between the middle and end piece of exhaust. any ideas why and should I clean out centre section. if so, how
With due respect dadof2 i understand Trials marking but question the accuracy of even 2 observers trying to watch 2 or more riders each. I am sure there is a satisfactory method in place, but i am too thick to see it yet.
Can someone explain the marking system on the Scott. I have watched videos and noticed several riders in a section at the same time. Are the sections not walked thhrough first and are there more than one observer at each section ie one observer/rider in the section. I am puzzled as to what happens.
as mentioned in a previous post it sounds as if there is predetonation when riding at small throttle openings. today i put the choke on and the detonation stopped, confusing
The black goo is unburnt oil/fuel mix when the motor is running low rpms for regular amounts of time. This migrates from the barrel to the silencer section. It then soaks into your silencer packing material until it drips out as spooge from the joint you mention.
Unless you have a running issue elsewhere it has probably happened under normal circumstances over a long period of time and means a bag of new packing material is required for the silencer and a modified use style of the bike will help.
Have you got any other running issues or changed your riding style, riding location greatly? If I ride only in my garden without being able to get heat into the exhaust pipe I get the same after a long time.
What oil/fuel do you use?
All two strokes will create this spooge unless they are running at the optimum heat/engine load for their indivdual settings constantly. As soon as the heat drops to burn the spooge off it builds up and makes a mess. You will find loads about it on the web but unless you are having real issues I'd leave the settings alone and try the "clearing" by riding method first. a 200m straight line route is all you need to give the bike several runs under load with big throttle openings.
One tip for the future is once you have re packed the silencer is always get the bikes exhaust hot by doing some good 3rd/4th gear straight line squirts on a 200m loop. A quick road section can help get the temps up and burn it off.

On a slow tight turn when using clutch bikes front wheel wants to slide away instead of turning bike, if that makes sense
Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?.
