Lil' Willie's dad. Posted January 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 Fitted this before the trial yesterday, brilliant mudflaps made of a seemingly really good material. I've left it long to see how it would be. It stopped the radiator filling with crud, it got none in it at all and it was a messy trial in a few sections. It also matches the new beta colours perfectly! Cheers for the head's up Rob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron 79 Posted January 15, 2019 Report Share Posted January 15, 2019 Glad it worked for you, we have been really happy with them. Only issue on bigger bikes is if it catches things when the suspension is compressed but on the smaller Junior Beta’s it has worked well for us and looks good to. Did you get anywhere with the rear suspension between junior, senior and 125’s? I checked the Beta website and they all have different part numbers so that maybe down to spring ratings but be interested to know if the Junior 80 Ohlins will fit the big wheel as I was informed it would not Cheers Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil' Willie's dad. Posted January 17, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2019 Can anyone tell me the best exhaust packing for the 80. A specific brand please? Many thanks.

Whilst up the garage preserving my marriage, I noticed that the steering lock could maybe better on the Beta. Has anyone removed or modified the stops? If so, was it detrimental or advantageous for youths with maybe not as much upper body strength to wrestle it round sections? Apologies for derailing, but this was the main reason for my last question. Many thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil' Willie's dad. Posted January 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2019 Does anybody know how to add weight to the flywheel, or somebody that does it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil' Willie's dad. Posted June 6, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2019 Ok, so decided not to add to the flywheel weight. As he has grown into the bike it has become apparent that the 'pop' of the front wheel has been more beneficial in nationals. Throttle control and body positioning coming to the fore as expected. With regards to the Ohlins shock on the Evo80 medium wheel, The shock has to be modified using a longer shock body tube to fit the big wheel. If you contact Andy Dawson he will sort this out for you.

Lil' Willie's dad. Posted April 1, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2020 After over a year of running the bike, we have found that running it on putoline trials oil at 60ml per gallon has completely iradicated the need to repack the silencer monthly!
