Nice one Phil :D I was looking for one of those a few years back but weren't any about at a decent price. I ended up with my 07 Beta which uses exact same rfs engine.
As others have said, engine is a peach, very linear, plenty enough power everywhere for us old blokes :lol:
Mine runs 13 50 sprockets, seems fine to me. Stuck a 14 front on when I brought down here to Spain last time as more open trails here and got 20-21 km a litre. Get around 17-18 km/ l back in french lanes but I don't tend to rev it out as it's so torquey.
As Bob says, easy enough to start on kicker even for a shorty like me though had no battery probs with mine ... button even easier.. ;)
Enjoy !! Look forward to catching up in springtime.

Bit like that bloke who was run over by a steam train. He was well chuffed too. :roll:

Glad it's a good'un Phil. Great value. Little does it know what a tough life it's going to have from now on. Run up and down impossible hills and flung at the scenery every outing...

When I tell Peter the Beta that he's off to Phil's next time out, you can see him flinch.

@ Nico ..................this is running a 13/52 so probably down to 15 km/l but i reckon its about right for the slight ups and downs here :twisted:

@ Ian................cheers , haven't looked yet but will do , i'm sure that ding would knock out :lol: :lol: :lol: what the hell did you hit ?

@Dave ......I'm just easing the Raptor in .......gently gently :twisted:
