Bultaco do you see the differences
I see it now. It was the old style clutch rod adjuster that was fooling me, I'd forgotten about those.

Advice buying used EM epure or sport
Bear in mind that e bikes are different and require e bike skills. Not to argue your point, but to expect a gas bike rider to jump off his bike onto an e bike and ride up to his gas bike level is unrealistic. In the near future we will see e bike specialists who can ride at very high levels. Kuroyama may be one, he was a top level bicycle and gas bike rider and I believe will be Yamaha's top e bike rider.

You're right, that looks like a bottom pivot kick lever on the original. I've never seen anything like that.

Lokks like a later style rear rim, passenger pegs are a nice touch.

Electric Trials Bike for Trials Rookie
You can certainly learn to negotiate such obstacles but the technique will be somewhat different/modified, so I would say rather than getting hung up on conventional techniques learn to adapt them to your equipment. It can certainly be done. A seat is generally more of a hindrance for turns and descents than climbs.

Electric Trials Bike for Trials Rookie
E bikes and EM have advanced quite a bit.

Electric Trials Bike for Trials Rookie
I think 7 years is a lifetime in e bike years. I would'nt consider it unless it's real cheap and/or I was a tinkerer wanting to buy a bike to update/modify.

Electric Trials Bike for Trials Rookie
You could look at it two ways. You could get the clutch model and ride it more likeyour KTM, or you could go clutchless and rideit more like your MTB.

Are you saying the tank was originally porous and lined with another product?

Assuming you're working on a Sherpa T, I think modern pegs in the original high mounts would look hideous. Pursang/Frontera pegs will fit and look original. I just looked at your earlier posts. Modern, thicker, gaskets in stead of the original paper type, will help with weld clearance on your cases, you may still need to do some grinding though.

When inspecting gears focus on the dogs on the sides of the gear and the surfaces they engage on adjacent gears.

Shocked
Do you know what the secondary voltage is on your two stroke? Shocks from kill buttons used to be common in the rain, fortunately there are better kill buttons availble nowdays.

BETA REV 3
Overall they're fine. If you want any specific info you'll need to divulge the year.

TY 250 piston stamped id markings
You still haven't. There is no fraction there, it's a decimal point inserted into a decimal value. I've never heard it said that way, I would say 16 ten thousandths.

What year is this Bultaco Sherpa?
Right footpeg is moved back to Trials position, left one is still forward, that's special.

Ski plate needed- make or purchase?
I have a used alu plate for your bike in Chattaroy, WA. I'm going to look for the peg mounts you asked about tomorrow. I'll send you my phone #.

TY250A Flywheel question...
Yamaha didn't make a kit to move the pegs back and down, Sammy Miller did, that may be what you have. I think I may have the Yamaha Peg mounts pictured above, if you're interested I'll dig around and see. Here's the brake lever you want. https://www.partzilla.com/product/yamaha/23X-83922-01-00

What are you guys running for chains and sprockets and why?
Nothing wrong with doing things the hard way if you prefer but PBI also sells the original dished sprockets in your choice of sizes.

Hodaka custom trail 1970
Are you sure it's not Keich? I assume they supplied the cap to whoever made the tank. https://www.kelch.com/products/caps-gauges-and-sensors/

TY250A Flywheel question...
I recommend using the 23x levers you can look them up on a TY350.

TY250A Flywheel question...
I think your pegs are in the stock position. Yamaha sold a kit to move them forward, which included the brake pedal you have, I think I have a set of them. The aftermarket sold peg mounts that went down and back. I don't have a TY anymore.
