  1. thanks curly, why do you need an evo disc? the rev 3 disc will fit in so is it not just a matter of spacing it out then?
  2. could you possibly get a picture of how its done? is the spacer in the disc side then?
  3. rev 3 wheel wont fit an evo, is there a kit now available then, i made my own mods and broke the hib so id like to see a picture of what someone else hase come up with
  4. everyone thinks every new bike looks crap when it first comes to light , with the ( im guessing) demise of scorpa another manufacturer is what the market needs, albeit i think they are pricing themselves out of the market?
  5. in the early days there were a few s models with plastic tanks, not saying thats what yours is, just stating a fact
  6. dell i have an 08 mudguard on mine, and i must admit its a lot better looking as the colour matches the rest of the red bits
  7. a spacer behind the disc wont work as it pulls the caliper out of shape, it is possible to machine a spacer and fit it in between the sprocket and the hub, this works until your hub breaks when your going up a hill which happened mine just edited to say that the disc will fit in the caliper, it rubs against is slightly for the 1st few minutes then clears itself I dont recommed modifying a rev 3 wheel as i am speaking from experience , although each to their own
  8. i think they are a really lovely lookin bike, have never seen one in the flesh
  9. i remember that model, gas gas had a bad reputation back then
  10. i thought the fortuna was 94 but i was wrong
  11. any beta owner should go nowhere else for their bits, next day delivery and stock of everything
  12. yes the 08 rev 3 i had was a great bike, to which i put 90% of that down to the keihn carb
  13. dan you have just explained to me that when i had my 06 270 i thought it was a great bike, moved to the 07 270 and found it an animal, this prompted me to get an 08 250 which was the best bike i ever had slowly but surely im getting onto the evo a bit, but its a different kettle of fish all together i think you are over the top in how you clean your carb out tho, i never take mine off
  14. completly different than the rev 3 to ride and i feel that the 250 has as much poke as the 07 270 i had a couple of years ago downside is the front mudguard, touch it and it will snap the rev 3 fork brace needs to be modified to make it fit
  15. no they dont If your clutch does drag the easiest thing to do is just ride off and put the bike into a high gear and put the front and rear brake on
  16. looks like the previous user, was using it for road riding, pretty irrelevant but id change those bars if you plan to use it for trials
  17. although this is off topic, the way i feel at the moment id happily buy my rev 3 back
  18. I dont think Doug will have any problems beating Brown indoors yet, by the way, is dougie doing another season on the outdoors for beta?
  19. I take it you had a crash and snapped it then?
  20. Its easy to say if you really want to go just pay the price, but spending a week in the isle of man aint cheap when all you really need to do is be there for a 4 days max Its a real shame and i hope things change in the near future
  21. they also killed the manx 2 day trial for me
  22. nah, if it works for you guys thats good, il do what works for me
  23. i can never get my head around people doing that, why not just seal it up with instant gasket type stuff and then forget about it
  24. i think the bike is awful looking, having said that i hope to have one soon
  25. that is correct, ****e design of an air filter was the 00-01
