Re: Try All=Street+Trial+Flat+MX
I thinnk it's a Beta Rev-3. It's a Trials bike and the manouvers he is performing are typical of indoor observed Trials but he's applying them to a freestyle environment. Notice the absence of any seat whatsoever...

OK, you UK greenlaners and mud scramblers, Go here, scroll down to the

What bike is he riding, What class of bike does it belong to, and how
does one train for that??? Pedal bikes?

Ruari,
Thank you so much!!! I certainly will post pic's once I'm done with it. It is my first big bike. I'm a german immigrant in the US and I used to ride in Germany small bikes (Zndapp and Kreidler mainly 50 cc's and dirt bikes), but when my daughter was born I stopped riding (25 years ago).? I enjoyed riding on the back of my husbands bikes, but when he was deployed to Afghanistan (1 1/2 yrs ago) I had to find something to do. I decided bike riding is something I truly enjoy and bought myself a 250 Honda Rebel, however I soon realized it was just not enough power for me on the freeways. I started looking for a used? newer Bonneville and came across a W650 and thought it was a much prettier bike. My husband could not believe I bought this bike while he was gone, he was proud of me, haha. He informed me it is a somewhat rare bike here in the US, they only sold 700 here in the US. And yes I agree with you it does look a lot closer to a Triumph 1959.

Sal,
Thank you very much this is very helpful. My husband already made these adjustments and it is a little better. Yeah we figured the clutch couldn't be worn yet with these miles, but weren't sure how the previous riders rode this bike :)
Anita

Hi, Anita.
First
adjustment is at the hand grip. First slide the rubber boot back. Then unlock the large thumbwheel, then turn the small one until the handle is loose - so you can get at least a nickel's worth of play where the handle meets the housing. Then re-lock the large thumbwheel and replace the boot. If this is unattainable, you can adjust where the cable grips, accessible on the left side of the engine, after removing the sprocket cover (if you go this route, be careful to keep track of the cover bolts. They are all different lengths.) In all likelihood, though, the hand lever adjustment will be enough with only 12K miles.
The W's clutch tends to be a bit grabby - that is, it grabs late in the handle travel and there's only a very narrow feather zone. This is normal. One of the few weaknesses of the bike, IMHO. Wish we had a nice hydraulic clutch like the Mean
Streak.

Re: Sag or Preload; & suspension
Thanks, Bill. I was happy until I found I don't meet current standards.
But then, I don't anyway, so why worry?

Thanks!!! Yeah he knows about that. We are stoked about the ride it'll be my first long ride. Going from LA to Monterey, its a great ride along Big Sur. He rides a 04 Triumph Thruxton. Of course when we ride up together to any place everyone thinks the W is a brit bike. I just love bursting their bubble. :)

Yeah, I'm a fan of that one. The August Cycle World did a
write up on it, really liked it. Recommended reading if the bike peaks your
interest. Detuned 650R, nice power curve. Like a W on steroids. Whole different
look, though.

They're releasing it as an early 08, but not for California. I
hope they bring a Cal legal model in next year. Won't meet smog

I'm not aware of any that immediately come to mind in the USA or Europe- you could ask Jon if he knows or can advise who was the subcontractor for the header pipes for the Fishpipes. However, here are some Japanese companies, which may include POSH, Daytona, Daiwa and K-Factory :
Good luck & let me know if you find any!

Sag or Preload; & suspension
Hi, I popped by the motorcycle co-op today and they
measured my W650 preload "sag."
They are not terribly familiar with older style
bikes, they are a sportbike/racer shop.
?
I have Hagon progressive front fork springs, and
Hagon 20 Kg. rear classic shocks.
I weigh 198 lbs dry and 217 on the bike with
gear.
?
They suggested 30 mm front;? and 35 mm. rear
was right for sportbikes.
My results were: Front 50 mm.; and rear 27
mm.
?
Details were:
Front 170 mm. unloaded; 130 one bounce; 120 with
full load? = 50mm.
Rear? 160 mm. unloaded; 160 one bounce (note
no difference); 133 loaded?= 27 mm.
One bounce means bike loaded under its own weight,
no rider.
?
They suggested I use longer spacers in front, and
go back to the factory 18 Kg. shocks at the rear.?
Or see if I can adjust the Hagon rear shocks.?
They said the longest setting?turned out (which I think I'm on) had the
most preload, which I didn't realize, I thought it went the other way.? So
I guess I turn it clockwise from the bottom to shorten it to increase the
preload sag?? I'm confused.
?
Any comments from you folks?? I wonder if
sportbike measurements are applicable here, particularly when the W650 rear
shocks are so vertical by comparison.

I bought two RD 350s today, a 1974 RD 350 B (purple) and a 1975 RD 350 C
(orange). OK, so I am lonely/bored and this is what I do.
The plan is to use one for parts and make one a runner, however, both seem
to be intact..the 74 has a holed piston, but everything else is there..the
74 is kinda rusty too.
Anyway, not a big investment yet, it should be fun getting them up and
running...or at least, getting one of them up and running.
