Had a rev 3 200. Now have an Evo 200. Beta have not changed the engine characteristics much at all. The older Rev felt like it had a heavier flywheel but I never bothered checking.
The 200 is the ideal entry level/beginner.
If your screwing up on one of these then you probably shouldn't be riding trials
Not much torque on a Beta 200????
You've got to be kidding me.
I have 2 of them. Couldn't be happier. Ideal sized bike for trials for anyone less than A grade.
We put Forma soles on our Sidi boots.
Almost 12 months in and have been super impressed with the longevity.
The Sidi soles are very very grippy though.
It's always a tradeoff though- grip vs longevity
Just build up the worn area underneath the peg mounts and grind back flat. That will be perfectly fine.
That is some serious scarps tho.
I would suggest riding lighter on the bike
I had one of these.
A regular job with this model was to pull the clutch plates out and run the steels some emery paper on a flat plate so as to allow oil in between the plates.
The stockers were almost mirror smooth and this fixes the problem.
And considering it's a 20 year old bike, would pay to do all the other stuff too
The crack you heard was most likely the kickstart engagment gear crapping itself.
A regular occurance with gassers.
Every one of mine has either eaten its ks gear or the shaft or both.
