March 24, 201610 yr Hey. I got a Beta Rev3 from around 2002-2003- with a 250 ore 270 cc engine. It runs very well at idle , but when I speed, it begins to shoot in the exhaust and go bad . What could this be? I have new spark plug , fresh gasoline . cleaned the carb . Im not sure if the pilot jet is correct adjusted. I did try first with 1 round, then 1,5, then 2 and then 2,5 and then 3 turns, but nothing helped. Any tips? Second thing, Im not sure how old this bike is, i got a frame number x ZD3B9000Y0002660 x Anyone who can help me translate that frame number? On the engine side its written 352C/1 0 1/1. It go ta Mikuni carb Just to be sure, The pilot yet is the little screw i mark with a red dot on the picture right ? Thanks from Norway!
March 24, 201610 yr On the lower photo', is that a water droplet in the clear tube? Might be worth draining the tank and carb' and making sure it's nice and moisture free.
March 24, 201610 yr The one that's painted is your Air screw not pilot jet,normally set at between 1 1/2 to 2 1/4 turns out.The pilot jet is inside the carb,
March 25, 201610 yr Hi, I had a similar issue with my rev3 a few years back, turned out to be a grounding issue where a wire had rubbed off the frame until the insulation was removed on a small position. The core of the wire would contact the frame under vibration and cause a misfire. Worth a look, pull the radiator out to get good access to wires behind head stock and check them all for damage. You can use electrical tape as a temporary fix on the damaged section to help determine if it's the cause of your issue.

September 7, 20223 yr I also have the exact same bike, with a carb issue it's running really rich, can someone tell me the settings on the carb screws please. And also the fuel on/off switch I suspect is broken does anybody know the positions the switch should be for fuel on/ off / rez??
