As Dave say's. To add to that, one will only feel the difference in the mid to top end range. Nothing different to feel in the low RPM's range regardless of switch position. We have experimented with this switch on many occasions and that is our findings.

Hey Steve How are things with you and Matt. I got my new 2012 Beta 300cc 4T. Check out the pictures on TC in this Four Stroke Forum. I have a few questions about the bike for you. Your old e-mail is not working. PM your tel # Cheers

Zeez Ian. Lont time nay banter. A ken, it wud be melted doun and hinging roond the neck o a ned it yon paddys market. Nice bit o kit non the less. Wit ye dean these days, still fawing afe yer wee bike OL Far's ma mince? Awe the best.

Cope Could you repeat that in English please. Cope gets so tired of having to repeat himself he has to say it the second time first

I got it I got it! Check it out Steve. tons of bling! http://s562.photobucket.com/albums/ss61/billytraynor/Beta%20Evo%204T/

TLTEL I am totally confused by your advice! How will changing the needle clip position affect the pre-mix oil coming up from the crankcase? This should be interesting! Respectfully

What oil and hou much you using? Olive Garden Salad Oil 10:1 Ratio with two breadsticks

Learning to look up ahead, time on the bike, confidence, riding many types of terrain, attitude, and many many years of riding.

Yes a did, all I saw was a blood soaked american redneck with no hair looking back .... boy LOL .............. By yall..........

Thanks for posting some pictures. The pictures are many years apart in age, a VERY young Jordi with hair and an older Karl. Maybe try and post some pictures of Jordi say 5 > 10 years ago and they look alike. Jordi without hair looks like Karl.

Is Jordi Tarres and Karl Pilkington one and the same person. Did Jordi get a face lift, Or is this Jordi's stupid cousin? Anybody else see the resemblance between these two? BillyT

Why Liverpool? Why not Austin TEX?

Emh...... you took the carb off to clean it, that is what went wrong! As RLRacer said is the best advise!

Classic signs of pilot jet being to lean. Richen pilot jet until symptom go away.

RP I totally agree. Tweak with oil viscosity and the Beta's suspension is great. Spend more time practicing. Cheers

Hi Several other 2012 Beta's"? Have you modified yours? I am not the one complaining about the Beta's suspension. I like the Beta's suspension. Maybe you should read all of the posts on this topic to get the gist. Cheers.

There is no compression adjustment only pre-load to the spring. The other adjustment is for rebound.

To each their own I guess. Do you have a stock throttle cam, stock valves?

Dan Go to the four stroke forum. Go to "What is the future, two stroke of four stroke". Go to page 4, should be there. Cheers BillyT

Hey Steve I am waiting on a 2012 Beta 300cc 4T. Should be here in a week or so. I ordered it with the factory Titanium silencer and the aftermarket shock that American Beta offers on their web site. Should be interesting. How are you getting on with yours? I will update you when I get mine. Cheers mon ami.

Been in/around trials for over thirty years. Thought I had seen it all heard it all! So, I met this guy at a motorcycle store here in the USA, he heard my Scots accent and starts to chat with me. He starts talking about trials and how when he was stationed in the UK during the second WWII he and his fellow air force buddies used to hang around some British trials guys. So far so good, now here is where it gets FUNKY he swears up and down that one of the bikes he saw and had a go on was a diesel yes diesel engine....... Is this even possible? I mean can one have single cylinder diesel engine let a lone put one on a trials bike? This guy was old but still had his wits about him and could talk two stroke and four stroke technicalities till the cows came home. Any diesel guys out there that can comment on this, is this guy yanking my chain or was there some attempt by a backshed mechanic in the UK during the WWII in installing a diesel engine on a trials bike?

Guys Just as a reference point to what I an trying to say about getting energy in to the front forks and then getting a percentage of it back in the rebound stroke check out my video post (four stroke forum) of me on my old 4T Beta Evo. I shoot this video so I could check out the action and balance of my forks to the rear suspension a couple of years ago. Look how little energy goes into the the front forks and the rebound stroke. The bike is alive and moving quite easy from side to side. Cheers

Dan The oil viscosity variability suggestions I make depend on where you live i.e. weather. In Arizona we sometimes rode in 110 F I have also ridden in 40 F weather. This weather extremes will play havoc in your suspension performance. Livlob is correct in following the manufacturers recommended oil levels, the viscosity however is up to you! I start with 5 weight in the rebound and 7.5 in the compression.
