  1. Right up date My lad said he was up in the revs just about to change gear, but when he shut off it didn't for a couple of seconds then cut out? Yes it's water cooled, But level ok Good strong spark no matter how you have the plug lead Reed block ok, had that out last night Even tried it with easy start I don't know, it just dosen't sound right when you kick it over I think I'll put it back together and get it to someone who know more than me!
  2. Whilst out at the weekend, my lads 1999 beta techno 200cc just stopped between sections. when we came across my very red faced, puffing and panting 15 year old, he said it reved a bit then stopped??? Just stopping, yes, but why rev a bit? he might be misstaken? Anyway, i put a new plug in, good strong spark, flushed the "nice and clean" carb out again. Kick, kick, kick,............You get the picture! Nothing. Wet plug, wet exhaust! (now off, as well as air filter) Checked the woodruff key, As mine had sheared in the passed, flywheel wasnt tight, but key OK So here i am asking for your help, as my head's getting sore!
  3. Thanks guys, she's purring like a kitten again!! I'll know where to come for help next time, there'll no doubt be one!!
  4. Flywheel nut 73ftlbs torque?? Thought I'd check
  5. YES woodruff key it was!! The flywheel nut wasn't that tight, but the flywheel came off with a good pop. I'll order one, or maybe two tomorrow! Let's hope that's all it is. Thanks again guys!!
  6. would it shear just like that? seams strange. I'll get hold of a flywheel puller and have a look, thanks
  7. I got my and my lads bike out of the van, started them up (2nd kick) put my helmet on, rode down to the beck (100 yds) My bike (2001 sherco 290) was a bit choked up so i rev'd it to clear it, when the rev's droped it stalled, not wanting to start! At home i tried a new plug, no go, cleaned the carb, still no go?? Now, I've got fuel and spark, even put yet another new plug on. When i kick it over, it backfires, but won't catch and start? Ive tried it with the air box off, exhaust off, filler cap off, feels like i'm banging my head against a brick wall! I'm sure someone with more knowlage than me will know what's up with the old girl! Thanks Tim

    beta oil question

    What mixture are you mixing the putoline TT trial pro at??
  9. Am i going mad?!! Right where do i start, I came off my 02 sherco 2.9 and snapped the clutch lever off, i got a pair of forged ones to go on, but the clutch one didnt fit, so i got another one (different make) and that dose'nt fit ether! Now i have to try and describe why not! From the center of the pivot bolt hole, to the center of the plunger is only 15mm on the clutch where the front brake is 20mm as are all the levers (both brake & clutch). It looks like the master cylindar has been drilled out wrong. But to confuse me more the orignal clutch lever mesures 15mm to match? I'll try and put some photo's on to describe better. I'm not sure what else i can tell you, if you could mesure the distance between the pivot bolt and plunger on your clutch, at least i'd know if its my master cylinder thats wrong. Can't work out how to put photos on sorry. Do Gas Gas's have the same master cylinders? I hope you can help me TIM
  10. Now boys n girls. I've just bought my lad a 1993 beta synt 125, granted a bit tatty, but sound. Would look a whole lot better with a sticker kit, or at least some stickers. The only route i've tried is searching google, no joy, not even any good clear photo's so i could gat some made. Well its over to you, hope you can help, its his birthday soon. Ta TIM

    93 Synt Clutch

    Do you still have the bike? Its just i've just bought my lad one from preston, wondered if it was the same bike. This one's a 125. I'm having trouble with the rear caliper, somones stripped the bleed nipple, well the alloy, not the nipple!
  12. Hi, Am i just being thick? Is Castrol edge sport 5W-30 engine oil or gear oil? Sherco web site says 10-40 Will that be engine or gear oil, just got the bike and always had 4 strokes before. Its just i've got some Millers 10-40 (semi or fully synthetic, cant remember) engine oil in the garage, but don't want to put the wrong stuff in!!! Ta trh71
