scorpa3 Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 I'll email you off line concerning the puller. BVM were brilliant (as always) they supplied the new stator free of charge under warranty, despite the bike being 2nd hand (but as new, if you know what I mean) then when the second one packed in a few weeks later, they offered to change it free of charge a second time. By then I'd had enough, two trials spoilt out of five events entered because the electrics packed in. BVM gave me a brilliant price in px for a new Scorpa and I rode it in a trial the very next day. Although in fairness, the Beta was litterally like new, (as in unmarked with the hairs still on the tyres) but it was a non runner. I just wish I'd bought the bike brand new from them in the first place. It just goes to show you get what you pay for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james111089 Posted December 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 (edited) spoke to JLI and he said that electrical problems are not relevernt on the 2002 bike because its a differnt system. he said to run it on semi synthetic oil at 70:1 and to use a 5 heat range plug and repack the silencer. 'it sounds like its getting choked up' at the moment i am using a 7 and fully synth oil so will change these and see what its like just letting you guys know James Edited December 5, 2005 by james111089 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neonsurge Posted December 5, 2005 Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 (edited) anyone seen these http://www.uk-motoplat.com/beta-rev3-ignition.htm <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Those are the same Leonelli ignitions that BVM sell. I like the idea of the programmable/switchable module. Edited December 5, 2005 by neonsurge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james111089 Posted December 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 (edited) i have repacked the silencer and will get some more two stroke oil and a plug asap and then see how she runs hopfully that will cure it other wise ill look into the electrics is it true then the electrics dont go on the 2002 because its a differnt system James Edited December 5, 2005 by james111089 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
