Gearbox oil 450ml.

What happened to " The things are really overpriced nightmares " ? They really are, you know, but fun is fun. Having repaired a couple of CRF Hondas, I can tell you!!!!

I think they should outlaw four strokes with mufflers and FI!! Put a straight pipe or a mega on it and ride like a real man! Let-r- rip! Brrrrraaaaappppp!

One of the tricks to downhills is Controlling Momentum. Ass back and arms straight and all that, however you need to rool off slow, almost stopped at the top, feeling for traction with the front as you inch down, Once the rear is over the edge it is near useless and if you lock it it no longer functions as a rudder, so you gotta pulse it possibly to keep things in line. If you let up on the brakes and start to accelelate, you may be done, as you will likely continue to accelerate and possibly to the point of out of control.So the initial control becomes more important in the outcome of the event. Hopefully you are low enough on the hill now, that even if you must let up on the front brake to keep it from skidding or slipping on a root, you will not blow through the sectioin markers at the bottom. Hope that makes sense.

Welcome!

Something not quite right. Not sure which perv! HAAAA!

Yu just need to worry about keeping Ty off the bike so it does not get damaged!

Scheduled for the last weekend in March as I recall! Spring Break for rials riders! Lots of fun riding classes to choose from with great instructors like Ryan Young! Camp, ride, relax, ride, enjoy, ride, eat, ride, do i over the next day! www. trialstrainingcenter.com

Internal baffle could be broken.

I know that looks a bit awkward yet it works a treat once you get the short board length set. Our GG importer only keeps the spade shovel in his trailer. Makes it look easy!

Yes and no. Fact is I usualy give everything a decent clean prior to assembly. I only put in the note as a precaution and common sense should prevail here. You will not find that in the manuals. I seem to recall reductions of 10-15% or so as a rule for lubricated threads, could be more, as a steel bolt may pull threads right out a ali case! One does not want to overdoo them. If it does not feel right, it probably is not! Yet not everyone has tons of experience at running bolts by feel.

I gotta agree I love the smell of the castor. I tried the Maxima version and my findings were not all that great. Even running the 80:1 mix, I had no problem with engine lubrication in a trials bike, as oil accumulates in a motor at those rpm's. I did not reallh have a problem with carbon build on top the piston, as I ho like to give them a good run. What I have problems with is the very hard carbon buildup in the exhaust. Almost as thouth it passes the engine then bakes on! I had a helluva time trying to de-grunge the header pipe, even using all sorts of chemicals and scraping. It's gotta be hell on a midbox and muffler baffling, and them ain't cheap on a Sherco or anything else. Suffice to say I am back on the full synthetic, no more for me, pity as the smell gives gristle!

Jeez man, you lost the teef an baws!Bout time to take a pee too!

Something is not properly earthed! Frame, engine, coil?

I finally took the time to compile this list. As many of these numbers are scattered throughout the manuals, here is a quick ref for all. Feel free to copy, and hopefully we can pin this! Crankshaft Flywheel Nut 73 lb/ft (100 n/m) Crankshaft Primary Drive Gear Nut 73 lb/ft (100 n/m) Clutch Basket Nut 45 lb/ft (60 n/m) Cylinder Base Nuts 16 lb/ft, 192 lb/in (22 n/m) Cylinder Head[nuts or bolts] 7 lb/ft, 84 lb/in (10 n/m) Clutch Spring Retaining Bolts 5 lb/ft, 60 lb/in (7 n/m) Engine Case Bolts 6mm dia. (including right main cover) 8 lb/ft, 96 lb/in (11 n/m) This measure would apply to other external bolts of 6mm dia. such as intake and exhaust. Engine Outer Cover Bolts 5mm dia. (including water pump cover) 5 lb/ft, 60 lb/in (7 n/m) Note: Plastic flywheel cover should only be snugged up as the plastic will distort. ps- As I have never found an official ruling on the 5mm stator plate bolts. These are a bit different due to the slots in the plate and the washers that may tend to bend a bit. One may want to use caution and just nip them up by hand and possibly apply a drop of blue locktite to the thread to hopefully insure they are not loosened by vibration. Comments or suggestions are welcomed, as I have done my best to insure accuracy here. There could be slight variences in the metric conversion values, however these are a non- issue as they are less than the variences in a certified torque wrench. And I am not responsible for Any Of It! Specs are for clean dry threads in good condition and use of anti-sieze or other compounds may effect these numbers. Use good judgement and common sense and refer to the manuals! Cheers, MC

Uh, good one? Change the sparkie first, Spark from where? Insure the earths undr the tank are good clean and tight.

So what's in the bloody locker? I know damn well peter torkin' is still about, You lads post up on a regular basis!

Did he beat Peter?

I thought it a bit ironic that in the Girls Allowed forum, the current topic is "What Size?" ----- I figure it best to try one of each untill you find comfort!

Wot is BS then?

Just WRONG!

I hope they also provided you with a slow throttle tube and a change of undies!! Thats a quick bike!

I use a blast cabinet with glass bead for many small parts that need to go back to bare metal. Does a fine job yet requires a good air source as well. You may find a local that can do that stuff on the cheap. We still have some chemicals here that work, but they are messy as well.

If it does this just running accross a field, yet ok normally or just short run, one would want to insure fuel is flowing properly. A pinchet vent tube or stuck vent to the tank cap can cause a vacume in the tank. A blocked screen on the petcock valve could restrict proper flow. With a Dellorto the banjo filter on the carb could do the same. Then there is the float valve as Chris stated. A #250 min. The fuel must flow reliably, lest it runs out. It is easy enough to ck these things.
