Hi, I'm looking for both the front and rear brake plates from a 175. Anyone able to point me in the right direction ? Also looking for a new front mudguard, same shape as the original. Thanks

I just stripped an 08 and the gaskets came in one complete kit.

Look out for smoke signals.

Just stripped down my 270 from last year to do the bearings. They are in some state. It was well looked after and wouldn't have had much abuse. Never had to strip a Beta before to do this.

I'll give that a go. Thanks.

Great minds and all that Well worth the bit of work involved. Anyone tried a smaller pilot jet in a 250 ?

Yeah needs a bit of trimming on the bracket and new holes drilled because the legs are closer, but handy enough to do. Sits a touch higher but that's no harm.

The other reason was the new one is cheap looking. No shine off it.

No it's not, but it is if they keep snapping

I put an 08 mudguard on mine. The new type just looks like trouble.

I found if you use a soapy water on stickers with clear parts it can dry out white underneath. Water on its own works ok.

Mine hasn't leaked so far anyway. Fingers crossed

I've only ever ridden Betas. Never felt comfortable on a Gas Gas. Just didn't suit me. Haven't had the Evo to a trial yet but from just messing about on it I'm very impressed. Runs very clean, feels nice and stable. Hard to say much more till I get to ride it properly.

Every bike has it's problems. I'd rather bolt on a stator than fit bearings and gearbox parts Can't fault it so far... watch this space anyway

Just got a 250 and find it very hard for my weight. Anyone around 9.5/10 stone played about with theirs ? Have to say I'm more than impressed with it so far, and no it doesn't leak

Yeah I had a 94 Techno 250 and it was probably the most powerful. Go for new rings and that should do the trick nicely.

I had a spare one for an 03 270. A friend couldn't get one for his 04 200 so he took mine and threw it in, and believe it or not it worked. I'm not an expert on electrics so I don't know how or why it worked. Did two trials on it since and no problems. I know there was two different wiring setups but not sure what year it changed... but if it has the same connectors and you don't have to do any messing with wires I'd try it.

I painted mudguards on an 03 to freshen it up before, was ok for a few weeks but the lacquer isn't up to it. It goes really dull and wears through in no time, and I put on 3 good coats of HS.

I got a picture that came from them, it was picture 3 (no other pictures on it) and it said that they SHOULD be parallel when the carb is vertical ? I set it that way and it seems ok anyway so I don't think I'll be stripping it down again in a hurry

Rode the bike today, and it went well. Alot happier with it now. Transformed the bike.

Got the details of the carb with a diagram of the float level from Lampkins. Main : 110 Pilot : 48 Needle : At highest notch (richest) Mixture screw : 1/2 a turn out For float level turn the carb upside down, the top of the floats as you look at it should be parallel with the body of the carb. My bike was running lean down low at the weekend, so I changed the needle height as it was in the fourth notch, and I adjusted the floats which stopped the overflowing too when the bike is at an angle. Sounds good on the stand but haven't had a real chance to try it out. One other thing. I heard that along the line the needles changed. Not sure how true this is. Mine says JJH, is that what everyone has ?

Have it all back together and it seems ok now. Trial on Sunday so we'll see how it goes. There's no flywheel weight so should be interesting

I have it apart and it's clean. The mixture screw is out one turn from tight. Is that the way it should be ?

I probably should have told the whole story i had a new one ordered but was told they wouldn't have one for over a month so i bought this off someone who only did one trial on it and said they couldn't handle the power. Petrol is pi**ing out of it, so i'm gonna strip it down tonight and clean it, don't know if it has been messed with so not sure if it's even set up the way it should be. So was just looking for any tips. Hope that explains things a bit better

Hi, just got a new bike and I'm just wondering has anyone and tips for setting up the carb ?
