  1. Oni nou is correct. You have to figure out if it is just crap pads and air which it could be. The M/C are not as great as they think they are. My `16 was crap, I fought it for about 6 months. Finally replaced the whole system with AJP. Just last week I went to a Nissin M/C. So far it is the best yet.
  2. It helps to use rim sealant on any tire during installation.
  3. An Evo 250 would be a better choice for your classic back ground. The 315R and Rev 3`s did not turn near as tight as these bikes were made with hopping in mind. The 250 is a nice mellow machine.
  4. Start with removing lanyard and reversing whatever you did.
  5. I am in Santa Fe NM watching my son work!
  6. You should have the best already. The S3 curve comes on the TRRS. I borrowed them off my son`s bike to try, they actually improved my riding on my Beta.
  7. I swear every time he put his helmet on, the bike seemed to gain weight too.
  8. Well, I dont recall you on the trials forum on adv. rider? A 5 year old gasser was before Torrot, so that could be part of the problem. There is plenty of Gas Gas parts in the USA. The problem is Torrot took over all operations of Gas Gas in the USA. Torrot has been short on parts. The real parts are owned by trials parts usa. AKA J.S.
  9. I ride a `16 factory 250 Beta. I have ridden all brands over the years, but always rode the Beta well. My son has a 2018 TRS 300 rr which I love, but for whatever reason I could probably have a lower score on the Beta at the end of the day. Sometimes it is not about the bling.
  10. It is possible that he is in a location without internet. This still happens more than some people think.
  11. Did you ever replace the spark plug cap and trim the wire back? You might check the pilot jet again just to make sure it`s clear. Or just lay the bike over till fuel spills out the carb. That is the quick way to prime the engine.
  12. He keeps bouncing around with his thoughts. Sounds like it is electrical, with the slow fan. He never has said if it starts and stops(the fan). But if he is actually riding it around and the fan is running and there is no leaks, it has to be no movement of the coolant. Especially being winter.
  13. This is his 6th thread on the same issue.
  14. I removed mine in a split second when my bike and I parted ways. Like twenty feet off a 6 foot drop during a National last year. I was 4 miles out of a 9 mile loop. I picked up all the bits put them in my fanny pack and taped the wires up separately. I have not touched it since and my bike looks better without it.
  15. The oko`s fit and just a tad larger than originals so better. I did see some on a carb site awhile back, but did not save the page.
  16. Actually those were mainly the bad years for Sherco due to the rear mounted fuel tank, fuel pump run by vacuum. Buy newer or consider a Beta.
  17. The mixture can't be fixed on the outside of a plugged carb.
  18. The only thing you need is a good carb clean. The pilot jet is probably plugged.
  19. Like a rod, side play is ok. Anything else not so good.
  20. I don`t recall mine as sloppy, but I have gone 10,9,10,11 and back to nine. So five sprockets on a 2016. It could also just be the brand.
  21. Just remove the lever and pump it with a phillips screwdriver. With the lever out of the way the piston should return all the way. If that does not work, remove the clutch line from the M/C and see if you can get fluid out of the m/c.
  22. Well at least it is winter!
  23. Check all thd pins in the cdi connection. We have seen a few that were out of place, not making a full connection.
  24. The plates are probably just stuck together. Point it in a good direction and ride it with the clutch pulled in until it releases. It helps to use the brakes and/or a wheelie or two. Sometimes takes 10-15 minutes.
