    Mini 6 is what is stamped on the flywheel, I already sent it to the US guy he was very helpful and even did some stator assy. diode digging and replacement with no joy. So off to the UK it went.

    If I remember the older Betas had some no or weak spark stator/CDI problems when they got 5+ years old.

    if it is a simply stator winding issue that's a real EZ fix. Wallybean can probably do it.

    I love trials........first bike I bought at age 13 was a 1974 Suzuki RL 250. And since have had an 72 Ossa 250 MAR, 74 Montesa Cota 250,
    75 Bultaco Sherpa T and just sold my 86 Yamaha TY350.

    Here's a bucket list moment from a few years back...........spent 4 days riding Moab with a few trials bikes and various dirt bikes.
    2009 Gas Gas TXT 280 Pro going up the back side of Hell's Gate. Was an absolute blast riding the Hell's Revenge area on trials bikes.

    How you liking the 280 heard its more of a firey ride than my 300.
    Still took fww of my 300txt and introduced it to slow action throttle this didnt calm it down just made it more controlled an thats what trials is about.
    Still have to teach myself to slowdown i attempt everything to fast.

    The 280 was very smooth and predictable. There were so many rocky ledges and solid rock inclines to play on
    in Moab, and the 280 always had plenty of power and grip. Was attempting some crazy stuff on a routine basis
    those few days, whether on the trials bikes or the dirt bikes. Kane Creek Canyon was awesome too.
    The whole area is a dirt/trials bike paradise!:)

    finally got my 92 Beta zero up at em all is very well except the brakes....I need to do brake work. weak front and zero rear front is fine will install new pads and give a good bleed with fresh fluid rear may need more. But again the motor is solid and gearbox feel good too.

    I had my '85 Fantic 300 out and did a trials school for our local air cooled series. Doing 2 hours of trials drill work and then 2 hours in sections repeat riding, makes you appreciate hydraulic brakes and clutch. :oldman:

    also note this trials stuff fries the legs big time!!! Its great exercise of balance, weight transfer, and pushing/loading/unloading with legs.
