    Beta Drowned?

    The young un had an off in a river today Should'nt laugh Any who's the bike lay down for 30secs 1/4 submerged When I got to him, picked it up it started no bother 10 mins later after running fine, it died There's no spark Plug replaced still no spark When we got home I took off the stator cover and soaked it in WD40 (I dont know if I did good) It's a 2008 Rev 3 200cc I aint no mechanic! but any suggestions would be appriciated
  2. That'll be all fixed by next weekend
  3. It's only a Bargin if you need it And I needed it And it's a cracker The Owner of the bike gave me £50.00 of the asking price He was a really nice guy, he even threw in Carbon fork protectors, Filters (2) and quality Oil and a new plug And this http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MONTESA-4RT-OWNERS-WORKSHOP-MANUAL-/290568799895?pt=UK_CarParts_Vehicles_Manuals_Litterature_ET&hash=item43a7400697 I drove home with the Grin of a Cheshire Cat Considering I went to look at a 2008 Beta 4t that looked like it would be more at home in Steptoe's yard, I paid £50.00 more for the Monty than the "Tube" was asking for the Beta! and the Monty's 10 times the bike Roll on Saturday ...........................................
  4. You should have got your "Wee" pal George to do it for you Me thinks you've travelled miles to buy a "Crock O' Sh*t" It will make it easier for me to kick your ass on Sunday @ Drumcarro
  5. This works for me And there's no law saying the tailgate needs to be up, as long as everything is secured and you can see the lights I'm loving that "Yank" BTW .
  6. If I get any good I'll get an entry form for next year http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=sheffield+indoor+trials+2011&aq=f .
  7. Good Answer, Thanks, I've been on the planet for a while now and have ridden bikes most of my life, latterly more off roading, even a bit of quading, but now I'm about to tip my toe into the world of Trials Wish me luck
  8. How often are you meant to change the oil in a gearbox on a trials bike?
  9. The reason I ask, I too am looking to buy a bike, I'm a big lad, but I've been told not to jump in and buy a big cc bike ? I've looked at a few, but I'm new to this game, some are nice and clean, others I would call tatty, some have been farmed? it's a minefield out there!
  10. Hi There! whats you're reason behind this statment, are you speaking from experience, maybe a bad one
