    Beta Rev 3 Head Gasket

    Place the gasket on the cylinder taking care that the reference tab on the gasket must be placed aligned with exhaust flange
  3. The kill switch hopefully will have killed the bike before the handlebar has had chance to dig into the ground, so the engine will be dead before the throttel is wedged open! As soon as you let go of the throttel it will close, as the lanyard is pulled the engine dies and then when the bike falls to the floor it will not rev it's nads off.
  4. Have you repacked your silencer? You will probably find it is full oil from put-putting around, get a new packing kit from beta uk, job done and the bike will run and sound better!
  5. It is just an elbow that a hose can be connected to to direct the flow of water if the bike was to boil.
  6. Dougie is on tv now channel itv4!
  7. Caught Red handed! Someone must know who they are, but will they get what they deserve!!

    What Ratio

    80/1 fully synthetic or semi.
  9. How's it going, have you got to any trials yet?
  10. Your rant is not in context with my post, it was made regarding the number entered and spectators that rushed from section to section to watch the event.
  11. Welcome to the world of trials, find your local club that caters for beginners and enter a trial as soon as you can so you will know what to practice and you will see an improvement each time you ride.
  12. BTC first round today had 61 riders across all classes (27 champ, 30 expert, and 4 youth) and 100 + spectators! Better than last year, could things be on the up?
  13. We have had two beta 80's and thay were really good. As your daughter is 15 a good 125 will be fine and she will be able to ride it on the bottom end of the rev range Rather than having to use the top end on the 80. I can only comment on the beta as that all we have had but the rev 125 and the evo 125 are nice and soft until you get the revs up so would be fine for your daughter as see has some bike skills already. As I said above we love the beta bikes but I am sure any of the brands would be good, the sherco may be a handful!
  14. That has just made it even more difficult to determin a stop or not!
  15. You will get it going but don't let the setbacks stop you!
  16. You only need a flat road select 2nd or 3rd run along side the bike jump on side saddle as you let the clutch out to overcome the initial compression, then hope off and keep running with the clutch out!
  17. You could give a bump start a go.
  18. What have you done to get to this point, was it cleaning up the connections or did you find anything shorted behind the flywheel? Great news stick with it.
  19. You have had problems with your coolant impeller (as you mentioned in earlier posts) so you may have cooked the gasket first time out after your rebuild, may be if you ensure your coolant circulation is correct and you did not get the bike too hot! You may be lucky and a new gasket will sort it out! Good luck. PS was your fan working?
  20. Adjust your tyre pressure, the lower the pressure the easier it will be to balance, work your way back up as you get better!
  21. No, just floats on the spline?
  22. I have not used them myself but I think people have had good results from west country windings, you will need to google them!
  23. You need to remove the flywheel if you are reeding full continuity on the black. is the flywheel casing full of water or any sign of water staining?
  24. If that is reading 37 on the blue then that is about right, but if it is 0.037 then you have a dead short.
  25. Wire as per the diagram ensure you connect the black to earth. You may need to remove the red and white connector plugs and clean the terminals with contact cleaner, the contacts are probably covered in green corrosion, if they are green then this could be your problem.
