If they put the steering stem for the Honda on the Mono yokes that would be a treat. I would be in for at least two sets.

Like this!

Seriously with all your issues (which actually is common with Betas) it sounds like you need to find a faithful mechanic. Good luck, as it`s really quite simple.

Wow. it starts when you turn it off?

No matter what it sounds like, the ty`s were just a jap bike. Shoulda, coulda, had an Ossa!

A bunny hop is forward motion and unweighting. We would practice this jumping beer cans. You must mean a deer hop or flick turn with both wheels turned at the same time? My son does a two wheeled hop all the time. It is a great way to turn in a short area, it is risky and takes more energy. Some nasty sand sections this works amazingly well. He can do a 360 in a very short area, just very hard to stop after the last hop without a dab. (The risky part) A simple one wheel hop is more precise.

If you have a good dealer, that is invaluable. Gasser it is!

Bilks just gave you the proper link to fix the Beta mikuni. Billy T had the best fix in layman terms (And price). It`s easy to do and works. 90% of the Beta`s had this problem.

A sticky clutch is proper for a Beta, other wise the factory would of fixed it a few decades ago.

It also could be the condition of the exhaust. But I have seen bikes that a change of the filter does do this, especially on such a small engine.

That`s the point. It would have to be a main stream build. Honda, Yamaha etc. But like the Honda TLR Reflex( Yamaha could have done the 225 motor) that could be stripped down to basics. Gas Gas brought it in, a cheap under powered motor that was not street legal in most places. How many Gas Gas dealers have showrooms displaying models to hundreds of buyers? The Japs are missing the boat, used trials bikes are bought up fast in the USA due to Endurocross.

Any bike from the 90`s feel too heavy now!

Any shaft will wear. Just did a 2010 Evo yesterday.

We need more of a middle ground between the last two opinions. Broken frames and unreliable engines is not progress. Neither is adding weight to meet set standards. What we really need is a bike to get more new riders involved in our dying sport. Maybe a tlr230, electric start, disc brakes and street legal. Something that might be sold by the thousands, but not just for trials riders.

Page 9 of the parts book as the pdf was loaded page one, twelve, eleven etc. Mark , your not riding the Texas round at Sid`s new ranch? 12,000 plus acres of trials land.

The shaft could be bad. They can get a groove worn into the shaft.

Very strange if it was just in a shop. What kind of work was done. I`d double check the connections, specifically the grounds.

Sounds more a throttle cable issue. You should be able to hear the slide close all the way. It makes a distinct clunk. Not idling can be a blocked pilot circuit. Sounds as though a good carb clean is in order.

6,11 and 23 on page 9.

There is three springs in the shifter linkage. One of them is broke.

This sport is you against yourself. For the most part everyone that is watching would love to see you clean the section. That is why it is 90 % mental.

Swing arm broke. Most Gas Gas riders ( Top) seem to have a few bikes a year.

Yes, they sell more parts. But they also warranty more parts!

Just glancing at this. Without the regulator bolted it might not be grounded!

Usually you would look at the same motor. Rarely does a 4 stroke fit a two stroke.
