    Anyone already do a cross check for new (or more available used) rear caliper for the 2004REV 250? None available (USA ) but maybe there is another bike/brand also using the same AJS/Braktec rear? I know some scooters used them too but not sure models. Joe

    New riders get too frustrated in the first few months or so just trying to kick start the bikes since they regularly stall them. Eliminating one of the early frustrations helps them get over the hump in the learning stage and you have much better success. Joe

    Electric start Yamaha TTR 125 would be much better than that. Joe

    I would think that after 3 years, the O.P. has it figured out by now. Joe

    Brake shoes: Montesa $12.80-$16.80 all other brands $2.49-$3.99. The NGK plugs have only doubled since then. Joe

    Looks like 12.0 to 1 and like I said it's a real bugger to kick. May be one reason Beta greatly reduced it in later years. https://bikez.com/motorcycles/beta_rev_3_2004.php Joe

    The 2004 Beta REV 250 I have states 12.5 to 1 somewhere in the manual. A bugger to kick that left side mini lever too. Later on the evo's went to 9.5 to 1 as a reference. Joe

    Good one, LOL. (Freudian slip?). Joe

    Big difference in compression between Rev and Evo. I believe the Rev is 12.5 to 1 and Evo is 9 to 1 so that makes Evo much easier to kich over. Joe

    Have been looking at and considering MTB helmets with mouthguards myself. Joe

    Well that was easier than mine. Turns out previous owner decided to connect kill switch ground wire to the positive yellow lead from the magneto (???).....effectively grounding out any D.C. accessories. In my case this was the fan, which never came on when I first got it. Took a bit to figure out and then fix. Good as new now. Joe
