I think my main problem with it is that it does not boil over. Installing Evans is like installing a fuse that is too big for a circuit. If the bike is boiling over, it is an indication that something needs attention, it is a great indication too, you get visual steam, you get the sweet coolant smell, and sometimes you can hear it boiling in the radiator.
There are heat transfer issues too. Part of the goal is a fluid that will suck up as much heat as possible and expel it through the radiator fins.

So I have my second Beta 300 Super Smooth showing up in April I have been told and that is my favorite size Beta .It also will double as my enduro / Trail / all around dirt bike .
I have a second set of wheels so now I just have to figure out what the best enduro tires will be . I also have the seat / tank combo to give me a bit of rest and distance to ride with enduro guys .
I have had a few 200 and they are a sweet bike for my riding style but I am getting a Vertigo 200 this year and that is a true 225cc bike I am sure more than a few guys will want to test out both of these sweet machines !

The link worked for me. That poor little engine was screamin!80 is enough for Expert, so we probably only need like 20 ccs for INT

Enjoy!f’n trials thread…
So has anyone had a set of dedicated wheels for enduro tires for a Super Smooth I do have them and now I have to figure out what the best enduro tires will be for trail riding .
If anyone has experience with this what did you find worked the best ?
I read in the manual that the stock spring on my Evo 200 is 70N/mm. When looking at the Beta USA site is this equivalent to a 7 Kg spring? So if I'm reading the chart correctly my bike is sprung for someone 130 - 150 lbs.
Evo Rear Shock Spring
Powdercoated Red, Fits the new 2015+ Evo 2-stroke and 2017+ Evo 4-stroke, FACTORY EDITIONS USE AB-81028-XXbetausa.com
I was thinking at my 200lb weight that I was in between springs, but it looks like I'm right on the money with a 7.6 Kg spring.
Now I'm really confused. On this site, re-spring recommendations vary wildly...Make sure you balance the front and rear springs, just replacing a rear could make the bike turn weird.
Now I'm really confused. On this site, re-spring recommendations vary wildly...
A) stock springs are good for any weight, no need to change (for new trials riders, slow, etc)
B) only change the rear spring, it's Ok if the front is undersprung
C) change Both Springs to match rider weight
Just curious as to why the ADVbikes Trails Ambassadors have such drastically different opinions on springs ...
Have to agree with Yinzer Moto , Change Both.
the CRF is sprung for 290# and it make the bike compliant and smooth.
"A balanced manner" ......C'mon man, don't do stuff like that so early in the morning...Yes, lots of opinions on this. At your weight, pushing 300#, you definitely need to respring. Springs are not as critical on trials bike, you can be out of range a bit and it is ok, as long as the suspension moves in a balanced manner. You are twice the weight of what a normal bike is sprung for, so some adjustments will be needed. You can look at my YouTube for a video on suspension setup and what I mean by “a balanced manner “.
