  1. right......... i need to change the bush in the bottom of my shock on my rev3 but i cant undo the bolt, there is no linkage, the shock bolts to the left swing arm, and the allen key bolt is resest in the swing arm (page 6 bolt 6) if anyone can post the picture that might help, i dont know how http://www.betatrialuk.com/images/st...0-270frame.pdf we have soaked it over 2 nights in oil, and tried a allen key socket on a breakerbar & shocking it, which resulted in problem 2 the allen has snapped flush in the bolt head, but as i said the bolt is reset in the swing arm. i dont fancy using heat, as its all ally and may damage the shock? so, i need to 1) get the bit of allen key out 2) undo the bolt
  2. hairdryer/heatgun & a fingernail,
  3. like if you go out and its not raining you wont get wet? man.......... you one clever dude, as i said i dont want to argue about it, (personaly i could'nt give a fork) my freind got rid of the gas gas cos he was fed up with the crap in the airbox. he has been riding 30+ years and has had loads of bikes.

    08 Beta Plug

    yes but is it running ok? if so i would leave it, i think the 5 is better in the summer
  6. yes.................yes i am HTH
  7. did you ask BVM about the manual? they could probaly get you one, but theres not a lot in them, just basic info IIRC

    08 Beta Plug

    so why do you think it needs changing?
  9. the last twice i have ordered of them its taken a long time to come, the 1 time i know it was not sent when they first said, & i did not get it for over a week, the 2nd time it took longer than normal. but, previosly the service has been 100% its put me off them a bit, but mistakes do happen, and the post this time of year is not the best. BVM are very helpful, and will deal with any problems the best they can,
  10. i dont want to argue with you but, my freinds airbox needed cleaning everytime it was used, how you can say this is untrue as you dont know him puzzles me he is on a beta now and happy
  11. no its not............. the airbox was full of crap after every ride i went from gas gas to beta, and wont go back, but you need to try the bikes,
  12. why are you getting fed up with the beta? is it just the brake? have you tried bleeding it ? just over
  13. last time i did, and i was told it had been sent on thursday, the next time i phoned they said it had been sent on monday, i have been let down twice now by BVM, i wont give them a third chance
  14. it seems to be on every day at 3pm and 4am
  15. i would agree i have ordered things off BVM at 4pm and still had them for the next day in the past BUT i spent over
  16. dunno? i have not seen eastenders for ages
  17. im not on about British Nationals, im on about riders winning the sportsman route, week in week out on less than 10
  18. local free adds, bike trader & bike shops, BVM in stroud is not too far away from you, but they have p1$$ed me off, with poor delevery service, so i wont mention them
  19. yup......... i see the pics were relesed only a day or 2 after this thread was started, but i agree with the plonker coment, if only for buying a scorpa
