oldktmdoug Posted March 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 Update. Parts are in, maybe we will be together and running by the weekend! Woo Hoo! Of course, I have messed up my left hip, so that may complicate the issue. Can't get a break it seems... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldktmdoug Posted April 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 Woo Hoo! She is a runner, rode her around a bit, let her run and get good and warm. Not a leak, easy to start, must have done it correctly! Woo Hoo! Tomorrow is a day of learning, can't wait to play on her all day. Man that was a lot of work, but she is worth it. I think I spent $1200 or so all in for this free motorcycle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oli Posted February 2, 2017 Report Share Posted February 2, 2017 Hi guys. I'm new to trials and also new to this forum. Maybe I should do an intro first but just a quickie for now. I recently picked up a Beta 270 rev3 2007 model and soon found out about this corrosion problem. Well, 2 months later I decided to inspect the pump, the previous owner mentioned something about the previous owner having checked it but I decided to know for sure. Immediately I was very surprised at the lack of damage, there really isn't much to speak of apart from some of the paint having come loose which I cleaned up but there's no pitting at all. Was I just lucky with this purchase?? or possibly the right coolant has been used all along. I also managed to get a pic of the piston surface through the plug hole, possibly need to de-coke at some point. The piston from the exhaust port looks a little scratched too. Otherwise the impeller is fine which is the main point of discussion. Looking forward to chatting and I'm sure I will learn a lot here.
