  1. I've just been cleaning my nitro's battery compartment and pressed the test button on the battery and theres no lights on...

    With never owning one before I would imagine that the battery should hold some charge? and any ideas or how to diagnose what the problem is?

    Anyone got any experience in this as there's absolutely diddly about it in the manual or online about it

    Thanks in advance

  2. After spending my life on Fantics and then Beta's I decided it was time for a change.

    The bike sure does make you smile when you get on it but I seem to be good at stalling it and make a good effort to go over the handlebars, another good one is remebering to keep it topped up because of the lack of reserve tank.

    The front end does seem heavy compared to my beta 

    Anyone got any tips on how to not stalling it etc?

    Thanks In advance

  3. hgas just done my 19 evo...twice... they're relatively simple to do..turns out the fork leg is scratched and that's why the seals leaking... fork legs aren't cheap so it's bread and water for me and her in doors for a few weeks.. I think the right leg was 297 ml if I remember correctly.

    I watched the above vid by bilko and theres another good one which shows how to make a fork seal driver but I bought a sealey one instead which was around the 40 quid mark I think.

  4. Hi Dan no they weren't overly clean on closer inspection, not sure about the groove to be honest I didn't notice it till you pointed it out..I'll put them back in now I've cleaned them up and see what they're like.

  5. I've just done a service a first service on my '19 250 evo so decided to take a look at the clutch...to be fair the plates are very clean.

    Did anyone ever find some lighter springs with regards to lightening the pull over here in the uk ?

  6. So after a reasonably impressive off at the top of a step at weekend, Not sure whether it was the shock of actually getting up it but stupidly I wasn't covering the back brake and looped the bike, with me and the bike back at the bottom of the step where I started from with it on top of me..

     I'm buying some back armour seeing as all of the rest of me escaped major pain thanks to knee and elbow protection I've looked at the Hebo XTR and the forcefield but there are quite a few versions ? 

    Any pro's cons with either ?

    Thanks in advance

     

  7. Thanks for the advice everyone it's a '19 Evo and the fork with the disc on is leaking oil out of the top quite badly. I can't say as it's lasted so long seeing as the bike was new end of last September...

  8. Howdy,

    I've a fork seal leaking has anyone used a fork seal driver ? I was looking at the Sealey MS016 35mm-55mm Fork seal Driver..I've never done one before but i've looked at a you tube video on it and it looks relatively simple even to my Limited Mechanics Skill Set...it's a Beta Evo 

    Any thoughts ?

    Best,

    Mick
