In this video you mention that you'd be doing a full breakdown/prep video. I'm interested in hearing more about the dog bone and bearing maintenance that you mentioned, is it in another one of your videos?
@@TrialTube Oh man, I'd really appreciate it! Maybe on the super awesome Factory 200... since that is what I have as well! :-) I appreciate that you look through comments on old videos and respond, great channel!
great video!.. want to know more about dogbone maintenance please oh and just to pi$$ off your OCD did you see all the crap you left under the chain guard haha!
Any chance you could let us know your fix for the beta linkage play before i bite the bullet and order the jitsie dog bones and delta link in a bid to cure it. Thanks
Do you know that the only bearings that are sealed on the beta are the wheel bearings so just be careful with a power washer because my dads beta the stem was almost seized and it had only been jet washed once
I also spray water displacement lube on the spoke nipples and then wipe the rims to remove over spray. Don't spray the disk brakes, you'll be sorry. Now my spokes will never seize up.
Looks like the foot peg bolt supplied by S3 is too short, as it’s my understanding, your supposed to have 1.5 turns of thread at the outside of the nut, for 100% mechanical fit. It looks like it’s not got into the nylock.
Don't worry it did. Angle of the camera didn't help there and I pinched them up afterwards. Thanks for watching though and please remember to share and subscribe.
brilliant so cleaning is really a thing and not just ride the bike til you cant see it anymore ? cant i stick it in the carwash! seriously top vid lad just gone out to excavate me dog bones
Nice prep some more riding soon please and want to see the 300rr
If y’all don’t have a compressor but have a leaf blower, you can use that.
I had a 2013 Ossa and sold it a few weeks later due to the access to the air filter. My 2021 gasgas and that beta are a sinch.
They are indeed!
What was your solution for the dog bones?
Strip them and re-grease, they always have play in them. It’s a Beta thing….

Ahhhh we didn’t get round to it but it son the agenda as this is a Beta requirement!

I was going to ask the same question.
great to see someone who knows how to clean a bike right...
i normaly spray mine with silicone spray when it,s all dry..
So do I! God loves that stuff (insta new bike spray!)
If your're having trouble staying on the bike it might be the silicone as it very slippery. Don't get it on the grips.
I noticed that you don't put grease on the sealing edge of the air filter. After your bike bores itself out you will.

A wash ? I take excellent care of my bikes, and yours looks quite clean.
Mine get a lot more than a wash too, but this video is a simple basic to help those that don’t know where to start!
Great video!!!!❤
Glad you liked it!!

Ask dad about nooks and crannys as you mentioned
Dads got angry and said he has never nooked a cranny in his life!!
Then he hasn’t lived!!! 🤣
Haha he must have otherwise you wouldn't of been born bruv😅

Great tip!!
What kind of water displacement lube are you using?
@@EdmundsZvegincevs wd40
Y'all don't have leaf blowers in the UK? So much more efficient and faster
Yeah we do. Use them gardening...👍
@@TrialTube gardewhat? :)

You have assumed right! Thanks for watching.

Cleaning really is a thing for those that don’t want their bike to rot away lol, and good luck with the dog bones we have that video coming soon!
The whole Air System of the Betas is still so complicated to maintain. :/
We will do a full “how to” soon!
Be careful with pressure washers they can remove decals........ask me how I know.
That’s why mine is a low pressure one 😉
Dont stop… more cleaning please… and a little polishing.
Haha ok!
I hate thumbing in a softie
🤣🤣🤣✊
I bought my bike to ride not clean it.
Everyone rides them, cleaning and maintaining will allow you to ride more….duurrr
