  1. Unplug the kill switch from the circuit, ride home ......
  2. David 14 : 2 In my fathers house there are many Rotax parts. If it were not so I would have told you .....
  3. @tshock250 Your father will probably have some " under the bench " that he could compare ?
  4. Is the jumbo shaft the same as earlier 240 / 280's ? Never tried it myself, but the person who mentioned it works extensively on tl's and tx300's.

    Trs Clutch Effort

    This is on a sharan, one of the springs in the dual mass FW made a bid for freedom through the circumference of the FW. Caught it just in time. Just the housing thats slightly scored. Flywheel / clutch had 122k miles which is pretty good value.

    Oil seal

    Think the o/p is still trying to work out what "wrong " means ......

    Trs Clutch Effort

    I hope not, mine just tried to eat its way through the gear box !
  8. My B40 has the frame no on the left (as your sitting on it) front engine mount.
  9. Think Fantics had marzzochi's ? If so use 2 IMO.

    Oil seal

    If it was mine I'd put the seal in the "wrong" way round. Got to be worth a try ?
  11. The 4rt was designed by Noah's grandfather ????
  12. I think the Montessori version had hand woven tyres and bamboo handlebars !
  13. When are you test riding the "rack"

    Electronic Ignition

    I went for the pro version, havn't used the power setting enough to give an impression. Ridden 2 trials and the standard setting is very good in every way. The old system was even worse than I had thought, first gear is longer and grips better, I have had to turn the petrol screw in about 1/2 a turn ! (Was one and a half turns out previously) My first trial with it fitted was the northern experts, 5 or 6 hours long, and about 6 litres of petrol, so a good varied test. All positive so far. ?
  15. A friend has Maxton's, said they are very good, but no better than the usual contenders which are consistently cheaper. They do look nice however. (not sure of the model number fitted to his bike)

    a smoky TR280i

    Fork seals don't seem to follow this pattern, if fitted conventionally !
  17. First box is similar to back box in design and function. How do you tell it needs done ? If you ride the bike regularly the sound is the giveaway, it gets louder and tinnier. Bottom end performance drops off. You have established the back box is full of crap, chances are the front one is too.
  18. Generally, inside there is a perforated tube ( usually solid with sh@t ) surrounding this is packing, glass fiber or similar. If it's steel burn it out. My preference is to cut a window and fit a plate to make repacking easier in the future. I use rive nuts and good quality silicone to seal.
  19. Steel or alloy ? Either way it's got to be cut open and re-packed.
  20. Try all the above first. Does it restart when hot ? If not you could have an ignition issue.
  21. If its alloy you may melt it, steel is ok to burn.
  22. Dellorto's can be either air or petrol screw, but as said, the petrol screw are more reliable in daily use.
  23. Something like this makes it easy to get the line reasonably accurate. https://www.fountaindirect.co.uk/vessini-wet-room-surface-channel-10mm.html?gclid=CjwKCAjwh9_bBRA_EiwApObaOMzojicq9Buq-FjXeec8Cb_oFX5qKKpd3HSEsrJpLRpVDIYeueIi7RoCjL0QAvD_BwE
