  1. The oil also makes a difference on a quick bite or not. That was why most of us used atf on the pro clutch. I sold a 2004 pro to a guy. He had me resell it as he bought a new Montesa. I could hardly ride the thing, the clutch was so slow. I called him and asked what he had done to the bike. All he did was change to Amsoil.
  2. Top of the beta forum. 2008 Beta keihin carb. First page has a pdf.
  3. Its a security torx with a hole in the center. The OKO is a direct copy of the Kiehin, but there gasket fits better. The stock one shrinks Try mid atlantic trials for OKO parts.
  4. https://advrider.com/f/threads/keihin-death-barble.1285977/ Try this.
  5. Keihin death barble. Buy some security torx remove jet tower then clean. Order new oring gasket for an OKO carb.
  6. Well you have to remove the header pipe, and removing the tank and muffler is no big deal.
  7. If you are just doing the top end, leave it in the frame. You can pull the motor without removing the skid plate. Which will keep the frame in place.
  8. H did not bring the Gas Gas as it was a vintage event. I was curious too.
  9. I am at a trials camping at the moment. I have a friend that just bought one and is here. I am assuming the box is now made in China as KTM is big on that. Of course he is the only rider in our club that has had covid. I have never seen him without a mask, even while driving his truck. He did catch it at his work. I will let you know what I find.

    No spark.

    So what was it?

    Brake fade

    Start with new pads as people always think they have plenty of pad when its beyond the wear limit.

    No spark.

    Check all the grounds and connections first. Also get a puller and check the woodruff key. Zeros sheared them all the time.
  13. The doctors will tell you it`s golfers elbow etc. Send you to physical therapy. Give you shots. Tell you to quit doing the things that you do. Flat out lie to you. Never really help you at all. I heard every damn story in the book. Mine was actually work related from my late thirty`s to late forties. Which did not matter, I just wanted to stop it from being worse. It started to affect my riding at about 51 years old. and continued until I could not even turn the ignition in my work truck. That was when I knew It had become critical when I had to ask my laborer to start my truck! Of course that was when the virus was just starting and it was impossible to see a doctor. I finally got in last June. Finally a DR. with a brain, 5 minutes in he tells me I need surgery as my muscles have atrophied and need ulnar nerve transposition surgery. I had surgery on my right elbow on 9/11/20 and 4 weeks later on my left. I will never be the same, but at least I am getting stronger instead of getting weaker all the time. Here I am 61 years old and getting better after 10 years of being put off even though I had insurance to pay for the surgery. Good luck.
  14. It was usually the black wire off the cdi, but that was a long time ago.
  15. Sure the cooling system does not have air trapped?
  16. Very strange this last year that bike sales, watercraft and recreational vehicles have been having record sales. It took a pandemic to get sales booming? It makes no sense whatever. Not much negotiating when they can`t get any replacement inventory.
  17. No its not, but ut needs to be set up NOT to leak. Beta used that same carb from 1990 to 2007.

  19. The first thing to try is the easiest, reset the ECU (see "Engine start" in text snipped from manual). If it doesn't start in 3-4 kicks after that, the next thing is turn up the idle 1/2 turn CCW with the idle air screw. Doing another ECU reset doesn't hurt. If it starts, you can readjust idle following the manual after running for a while.
  20. Well it would be much easier to run a tube type IRC! Some how we managed to ride in the 70`s without tubeless rims!

    I need help

    You did not say what year, what carb. But. yes the carb boot to air box must be attached.
  22. Our club president, NATC Rep and New Mexico Team manager bought a house with the most killer rocks on the property. Her husband thinks we could do a World Round there, except no parking. That has been our go to place to ride during the last year. I can ride in my front yard, but her place is one of the best places in the state.
  23. I have gone 80 to 100 several times through the years. But do it safely. I put the tire outside my shop, long hose with the clip type to hold it on the valve stem. I use a valve to control it and after it pops on I release the pressure before I get near it.
  24. 18 300 trrs. The rear spring you should be good. You probably dont need the front. 1200 FT IS BASICALLY SEA LEVEL. Just minor carb adjustments. AIR and idle. Sag does not matter. The stock settings are where to start from. MOre important for the front and rear to work together.
  25. Every mechanic has his preferences, being availabilty, ease of use or price. But that is what rrg was made for. http://www.redrubbergrease.com
