Rear suspension sag.
Buy an Ohlins or Rieger as your shock is probably tired. But it still won`t make you bunny hop. Timing,timing and timing, is how it works.

Montesa 4Rt for newbie
Loving Hondas is not the way to choose a trials bike. The Beta 200 is the hands down choice for a newbie bike. Honda also makes a truck. That would be last on my list when looking for a truck.

Paioli Fork leaking
Oh I see the mirror image while sitting and on my a***. But I was texting and driving in the middle of no where. In the middle of a old mining district in New Mexico.

Paioli Fork leaking
You do not need to order a tool. A feeler gauge is more correct as you have multiple size range. It only works if a piece of debris is the problem.

Laziest way to clean rust from a tank?
Vinegar and water, let it sit 4-5 days. Might have to redo a couple times. Remember to keep the tank full while sitting. Cheap and easy. A liner can become worst than dealing with the rust.

Arthritic fingers ?
I did this, since I injured my clutch finger. http://advrider.com/index.php?threads/2018-beta-factory.1286131/page-3#post-34566606 You could just find some lighter springs as it makes a huge difference. I would have to ride with two fingers if I had not done this.

Arthritic fingers ?
Move the lever mounts as far inward as possible to get the most leverage. I find s3 digit levers the best as they are thinner. What kind of bike do you ride?

Evo 250 2016 stuck in 1st
Uh oh. Sat with water for a year. Now that is another can of worms.

Evo 250 2016 stuck in 1st
You have to remove the whole clutch assembly to get to the shifter and drum. How are you ever going to split a motor if you do not understand the basics of how this works. It has been this way on 2 strokes for 50 years. Did you even look at the service manual.

Evo 250 2016 stuck in 1st
As stated above, it probably is not a transmission problem. It is a shifting problem which is located behind the clutch. Shift shaft to shift drum.

Ssdt gearing
Depends on what bike. Of course this is slanted as I have wanted to do the trials , but never have. I run 10/ 39 gearing, so I would go to 11/39. If it is a Beta first is useless for stock gearing and you need road gearing.

drain bolt
Being they never had an engine of their own till now it is hard to say. But Scorpa today is doing well. More popular than ever.

He asked about a Scorpa, not a 25 year old Yamaha. I thought maybe he updated.

Front brake pulsates
Crap brakes like everyone else. I threw away my brake techs and use the ajp`s off a 2005 4rt.

Jet washing bikes
Actually no, the trials bikes in the last couple of decades are not made to submarine through water like the days of old. Several things have happened. Most clubs in there land use do not ride in much water as they used to. The premier World Champions seem to cringe at a good wet and muddy event. And mainly the water cooled princess of bikes we ride now cannot take the abuse. Ever seen a modern bike try to cross a cold deep water stream? You have a real good chance of the cylinder cracking and locking up the motor. Trials and the bikes are not as tough as the events of old. By the way. Just run the bikes after a good wash. Also most owners manuals state this fact.

Gas gas 03 280 txt pro suspension
` I am new to trials seen. I have a Enduro and motocross background .` Try riding it first. A soft suspension is actually preferred in trials. Once you learn to be a trials rider, a newer bike would go much farther than throwing parts at it. I am am not saying spend much money. Ride this one for six months, if you like it upgrade for about a thousand bucks difference.

If it looks like a lower case bolt, that is also the drain.

2016 4T Hot ?
The mod was for the rev3 4T. You need to remove the muffler and the rear shock. Also make sure the intake boot is ok. They tear easily.A 125 main and a 27.5 pilot should eork depending on elevation. This would be the time to install the thumb screw.

Was the bike ever jetted? You need a Jitsie thumb screw adjuster.
