February 3, 200917 yr Hey, I'm riding a beta rev3 125 2008... and it likes to pour fuel out when I'm doing any sort of hopping. Actually, it's really bad when I do rear wheel hops. However, the bike doesn't seem to leak much at all if I don't hop. Is this normal? I pulled the carb out and checked the float level, no problem there. I lengthened the float bowl vent hose already so the bike doesn't pour gas out of there... oh, I also cleaned the whole carb, compress air and everything... Anyway to fix this or I'll just have to live with it? I love hopping on the rear but I really don't like it when I keep getting fuel on my rear tire!!! Help!!!
February 3, 200917 yr mine does the exact same, not sure if its supposed to but it does anyway. i have never ran out of fuel during a trial because of that yet
February 3, 200917 yr Might be worth resetting the float level to cut off at a little lower fuel level even if it is as spec. & see if that helps - did that with my Sherco 4T keihin and worked a treat. You can always reset it if it doesn't work. regards Jim
February 4, 200917 yr Author It'd be nice to be able to hop on the back wheel. How'd ya do it ? Well, I rode bicycle trials for 5 or more yrs... just swapped over to moto last summer. It took a while to get use to the control and rear suspension, but after I did, I just transferred my skill over Would setting the float different from spec screw up the bike going up or down big climbs? I heard something like that before... especially mine's a 125... I could be wrong!
