Was my first trials bike, and is now the backup unit. Compared to the GGs it is a good chassis, steers tighter, heavier in front/lighter in back. But it's really anemic; the expert kids don't want to ride it. Chainslap says it's the slowest revving motor ever made...

I'm ready to sell it, get the next new bike, and have my 09GG280 become the backup. Lord knows that bike is thrashed enough.

But I could also take (the Beta) to Big Joe, get a new piston, maybe even make it a 270? What do we know about this?

I don't know if it has flywheel weights. It's jetted for 7000'. Seems to prefer race gas, at least every other tank.
