I would say get a Beta Rev 50, been the TY route after an auto mx type bike. He picked up clutch control very fast, kids eh, & its 30yrs ahead of a TY80.
I use supermarket multi surface cleaner, about 99p a litre, and a soft ish brush, paintbrush for the fiddly bits. Works just as well for me, tried most.
Ran a new Mitchelin today for the first time after only having experienced vee rubber. Riding in slick clay mud the difference in upright grip was very noticable. Cleaning climbs the vee wouldn't get half way up with less speed. Cross camber though it doesn't appear to have any more grip.
I use a tube in mine and was inflated to 3psi.
The vee has done 300 miles of road work and still good for another 300. Bet a Mitchelin wont do that !
my 02 is registered etc, I commute to work occasionally (12 mile round trip), and ride to where I practice, 3 miles as often as possible.
Have fitted Acerbis LED rearlight, 4RT headlight (good colour match, dip+mainbeam, 35w halogen bulb), hydraulic brake light switch on back
brake, and made a seat. To do this. Find your ideal backside position and duct tape some thick polythene with a good overlap. On top of this
lay 4-5 layers or fiberglass, allow to cure, remove/ trim sides when cured. Evosick on layers of foam in a wedge shape to "level" seat. Upholster with your
favourite covering. Asda sell large self adhesive velcro bits, use these to secure seat pan, then easy to remove / replace. I use 12/42 gearing, cruises
45/50 mph. Don't be afraid to ride your Beta on the road, go commute over cars!
