You bought a pile of ***** used bike missing parts and you still bitch about a poor purchase. The Beta techno was a trouble free bike. This guy is asking about a Cabo rep. Which is a great bike in the right hands. Just a little more bike than most people need. You will love it!
-
It also could be the `on` position runs out early. Ride with it on reserve all the time. Down side is you would be out of fuel. I did this on the Beta Techno`s because the CDI could break the plastic fuel tap in the on position on a hard drop off. I always ran it on reserve.
-
Nice project you have again. Probably need to custom make the stickers. Hopefully Billy T. will be along to help out as he brought them into the states.
-
Slide in backwards? Missing parts for the air screw or idle?
-
It would make excellent spectator viewing if the chair lift was working! We have a local event at a Ski resort every year. The chairs going up and down makes the event!
-
Good thing I have not ridden the Nationals lately. Nowadays with the no vulgar language rule, I would five half the sections from my mouth!
-
I`ve talked to myself for years, just in my mind. Now that I`m older I find myself talking out loud, usually at inopportune times. On the other hand, I`ve always talked to myself out loud while walking the section and holding my AIR bars complete with sounds.
-
That will just confuse him as it is a different technique. That guy is actually putting pressure on the left bar to turn right and then changing pressure to the right bar. Totally different riding.
-
Sounds like you have yourself all twisted up. The weight should be on the left foot, so the right should move freely. Also it sounds like you are over exaggerating the move (which I am sure that was how you were taught) and now you feel like a pretzel. Keep at it, but you should be loose and free. Good luck.
-
You can fix that in five minutes. Warm the bike up plenty good. (15 minutes) Pull up against a tree in fourth gear. Give it hell for 5 seconds or so. Ride around a little and repeat. Like I said before the finger height is out of specs. Your new rider will take forever to break them in.
-
That`s pretty cool! I hope I make the 60 year mark.
-
That was back when they came with Paoli`s. Beta and Scorpa had the same.
-
Just use a small fanny pack. Also a good place for a bottle of water. I usually use a small one, but also have ready a large one prepped to go!
-
It`s all about timing. In the second example you are using the bike to get the rear suspension to work. You can do it the same with the first example, but the timing has to be more precise and you actually have to use your legs, or hit the log lower.
-
Bou`s also tough as nails. In Tennessee last year he crashed hard on a rock he had ridden in the past. (The no-stop rule made this section way harder than before)He landed his back on a pointy boulder. I assumed they would cart him off as it was a terrible blow. It took about ten-fifteen minutes, but his minders helped him back up and got him going. He had trouble in that section all weekend.
-
Time is the only way to beat Bou. He`s still got another 5 years in him. So the up and coming thirteen year olds is where to find the one that can beat Bou.
-
We`ve probably have 4000 active riders. But at least 20 times that as far as trials bike ownership. A funnier comparison is we have about 120 in my state, and we are larger land wise than the UK.
-
So if the plug is too wet it will not spark. In that case it is flooded on the lower end and needs cleared out.
-
You can always buy a 125 and make it a 225 if more power is needed.
-
Buy by condition, not by model or make. A well used bike can just bring another`s troubles. Having the Raga is cool, but not necessarily better than the standard model for the average rider. The later year Gassers have had better reliability than the past. But still have the same flaws.
-
Try a few sites in Japan. They are the only ones that ride that thing!

-
People who ride trials bikes or just compete. Huge difference.
-
Is the plug wet with fuel, or you could put a little premix in the plug hole to bypass the carb.
-
Compression, spark and fuel is all you really need. Does the slide close all the way? (I have seen them in backwards)
-
No, it should work. Did the bike run before the rebuild?
