micm Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 Changing to the 200 engine underpinnings from the 125 to the 250, was there sometimes a problem before. Bearings for example? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearings for example? I thought the 200 was a sleeved down 250, not a bored out 125. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trialsrfun Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 (edited) The Rev 200 was definitely 250 based so things must have changed when the Evo was introduced. Edited August 31, 2015 by trialsrfun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dan williams Posted August 31, 2015 Report Share Posted August 31, 2015 Yup Bold new graphics. Still think the 2014 Factory my buddy has is the prettiest bike I've ever seen. Well certainly up there with the old Rothman's Hondas 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve_earle Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 The engine is strong but now outdated, The mag cases and lighter crank in the factory models doesn't make much difference, They are much more front end heavy than an Ossa or Gasser and don't grip like a Sherco. As others have said the 15 factory is the best looking bike yet, I can't wait to see the 16 Factory next year, I'm betting on a blue frame! I'm stuck with my Evo for a while but I do slowly like it more with every ride and tweak, Apart from a linkage I see no real improvement from the later Rev3.

heffergm Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 There's a lot to be said for the extra weight on the front. If you ride more traditionally, rather than hopping, I found the beta really good at not washing out the front end, unlike my sherco which I need to be really careful on.

dan williams Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 (edited) Yeah I like my 2013 but wish I hadn't snapped the white front fender I had put on. Bad line choice. Edited September 7, 2015 by dan williams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
