Those rocks are spaced just right to make a crazy long sections of good tight turns. Learning the cool tricks are good, but learning to turn correctly is the key to trials. All the good riders can ride incredible huge rocks, but the only way to get points out of them is technical turns.
-
Did you turn off the gas when parked? I would say you wet the plug.
-
UK all the way. More riders, more events. But the USA has the best riding!
-
When you compress the bars(Forks) the bars should be turns slightly in the direction of the turn as well as your shoulders, When the rear suspension starts coming up to move your hips and legs into the direction you are going.

Find a very small ledge to come off of, or a small rock to kick off. I actually learned by riding off a curb at work during my lunch breaks. Took several weeks or more to get good at it.

Smaller for the main, bigger for pilot. Actually has to do with atmospheric pressure. Take a trip to Colorado or New Mexico and ask what people run. Or if you ever make it to a National Look up Dale M. the Gas Gas Importer and he will give the same info.
-
We run at 5500ft. At sea level they run a 36. You need a 38 and maybe the 115.
-
Since the bike is down and have plenty of time. Read up on the finger height and clutch pack measurement. Also many swear by the Beta clutch fix. There also several videos out on this subject. Before anything the finger height has to be with in specs.
-
You still need the bigger pilot.

You need a 38 pilot and a 115.

Actually a complete newbie just needs any cheap bike. Be it a twin shock or a water pumper. People either fall head over heals for trials or hate it. Those that love it will upgrade to a newer bike right away. The haters think it is a silly sport because they found out it is hard. (And they look a fool). It`s a great fun sport as long as you stay with in your real abilities. Beginners or Experts, most just grin riding all day long.

Thanks. I needed something new to try. Six years and slowly getting better.

If you are lucky it could be a dirty carb. At the worst the main bearings and seals are going bad. You could pop the flywheel cover off, grab the flywheel and check for play. You could also have an air leak at the intake boot, that can be checked while running. Use contact cleaner or some other spray while idling and spray around the intake.
-
According to the parts list the water pump pin is 12mm long. I hope it is that pin as it is easy to drop if you are working with the bike on it`s side.
-
I would check the kick start idler gear (That would be the easiest) but it would make more sense that it is the bearing that the kick start shaft slides into.
-
Well if you are using a tube there is no issues. But the tube type is the correct one to use.
-
You made me think of something. Did you adjust the levers for his hands? The master cylinder piston has to have free play to move it`s whole travel or else it physically cannot push fluid.
-
If it`s new you should be talking to your dealer. I do not remember clutch drag on my son`s 80. At 10 he is not going to be backing the bike up in gear, but he should be able to find neutral. And you are right about the difference between the electric and gas bikes. Most kids have not made the change very well.
-
No worries, we have four riders that have had by passes and one more with a pacemaker. The one that had it done in `97 was one of our top riders for years afterwards. After the surgery he took up extreme sports like Heli skiing and kite boarding. It`s all about attitude. Just have fun.
-
Is that when you are actually moving.

-
White, red, green then kill switch. I think it is color coded if you remove the coil to see the other side.
-
And I laugh each time a guy falls and tears those pants and ass. I still wear mx pants, but remove excess padding and the silly rubber labels that do not breath. By the way I started riding trials long before the silly gear came along.
-
They were attached to the cylinder head stay that mounts to the frame above the carb. It had a little slide on type bracket. The zip tie should work.
-
The Beta owners manual has the starting points for your weight. The front forks spring preload (left) should be ten turns in. They leave the rear to your choice. The earlier Revs had the rear spring compression. Seems it was 105mm, but that was long time ago for my brain. Good luck.
