I've just received the TMX 29/09/06 here in NZ And noticed New SY160 4 Stroke advertised Fastrax Motosports and a private sale Scorpa 163R 07! Is this a new 160cc model or just the new 07 SY175F model.

Also whats the price of a replacement muguard SY175F my welder broke it (honest) with the back wheel out on side stand it fell he tried to catch it with the mudguard and guess what!! Is the 125 one the same price?

bump

My only bugbear with my 06 175 is the rear mudgaurd it is just too stiff and eats cable ties with the slightest knock. My cure was too cut a 2inch strip of 400*18 rear tube and slip it over the mudgaurd so its sits just infront of the rear silencer. I have had some pretty bigs offs and touch wood have not broke a gaurd yet, the gaurd just springs back into place.

Hey Austini

Thanks for your reply, I will try your innertube mod bit annoyed about the muguard being split by the welder had 2 splits up to the fixing hole before but once they go above the hole its only a question of time as they go brittle the other side of plastic weld.

I was interested to read on on another thread that your bike runs good, I'm having problems with mine fluffing and missing when you wind on the throttle half way through a trial. I have the 17.5 pilot tried 102.5 main. Been running a 105, tried a 107.5 yesterday removed air filter which has BelRay filter oil. And it was OK!

So I will try it with a dry air filter next.

Don't run your bike with a dry air filter mate thats asking for trouble, maybe you have put too much oil on it!!! check for airleaks around your carby, make sure all the jubilee clips are done up. All I have done is follow the Birketts mods and she runs great all the time infact shes the smallest bike in my grade and still gives the big boys a run for their $$$$$$$$
