All those are junk bikes. ALL of the posts you do is crap. You have no clue where a vin is on a motorcycle and you act like you have some vast knowledge.?,?
Go back to your mothers basement.
I did mine Sunday. 14mm off the left and about 25mm off the right. I have an aluminum throttle tube that sits about 10mm wider due to the bearing.
I also removed the magnet and put a real teather kill switch under my bar pad. The tether will attach to my fanny pack, so no more killing the engine waving at friends.😄
We call that whiskey throttle on this side of the pond. You have moved you hand to where you cannot move the throttle back to the idle position. When you hit your wrist is pulling the throrrle even more. Slow the whole movement down and get to the clutch quicker.
Also your levers are too low to ever have full control.
That was my first trials bike at 12 years old. I learned alot on that bike. But mainly how to crash, as I could not touch the ground. Clean or a 5 back in that first year I rode it. Have fun.
A new or newer Beta 250 is quite mild than all the other brands. Ride one and see. Note the compression on the 250 is way softer than even a 200 and the power is on the soft side.
Did you rrplace the top hat and spring? With out the clutch on the shaft could the shaft move off the spring? Seems like it kept the shaft from moving. Been about 8 years since I did my last one. Good luck.
Sorry nobody has responded, but you are better off to take the fork apart. Inspect and clean it and refill with 5 wt oil. By now that poor old bike probably needs a new spring in that left fork.
They only service info is long gone, unless you find something printed out on the net. Gas Gas never made a manual other than the parts break down and the owners manual just had basic info like capacities. It`s a very basic bike to work on as long as you have spark!
MY son has a 300rr and I just got a 301. I have a 42 on the rear of mine and the topend on the 301 is still much faster in first gear. Totally different feel as the engine brake is hard to notice on the new model.
I just got my 301. Great bike if you don`t plan on hopping all day. Rode my first event yesterday. I cleaned the first section and nobody else did the first loop. Great way to start on my first 4 stroke since 1975!
