    A lesson learned?  It's standard practice for the experienced rider to grease every thread it's possible to get at when buying a bike, new or used.

    Pity the manufacturers dont ....

  2. Adjusted the chain on my 17 trs yesterday . Noticed the 6mm adjuster bolts seemed tight . Carefully removed them and saw rust on the threads but no damage . Greased and put back . Might be worth other owners checking before it becomes a bigger problem .

  3. Tried to remove front wheel this evening but so tight i have given up . Had the bike about two months ( 2017 250 rr ) so only washed it two or three times . Guessing it has possibly never been removed . Soaked the threaded end in wd and will remove forks at weekend and try to twist them to loosen it . 

    Anyone else had issues with Tech forks spindles ?

    My TRS is now 6 months old. I changed the slide in the carb to make it a little richer.

    Other things that I have changed I do to other bikes like fitting Raptor pegs, Renthal bars and I've raised the gearing. I recently fitted a thinner clutch plate to make the clutch lighter but I think this is common on bikes with a diaphragm clutch such as GG, Ossa, Scorpa and Sherco.

    Still very impressed with it and would recommend one.

    No real issues to report.

    Hi

    What number slide did you get and did you change the needle also ?

    Cheers

     

  5. Notice my mates Beta Evo has more ground clearance than my trs . Linkage bearings are good and sag is no more than 15mm . 

    Doesn't stop me riding just bugs me now I'm aware of the difference .

    Anyone else noticed or has a suggestion on a fix ?
