Front brakes that actually work
Having been a bit disappointed with the front braketech brakes on the Husky, I thought I would overhaul the caliper. I also replaced the pads.
I may have to do the master seals as there may be air getting in there over night somehow but after employing some of the tricks I read on the forums, they were running awesome for this ride. I also pushed the master to the left so that when I use them with one finger, it is near the end of the lever.
I've think I have the air out now but in future, I'll just pump the brakes with no front tyre in until the pads touch, then separate the pads which for me, flushes the small air bubbles out of the master. I did this a few times in a row and it seemed to work.
In all the time of owning this bike, the front brakes have never felt like this.
I also found the pistons in the caliper were very sticky and now move so freely with an overhaul.
Half way through the ride, we stopped and Dave discovered that his clutch lever mount is broken so out with the cable ties. He runs the flag style hand guards but they run a mount from the hand guard to the bar end.
This puts all impacts directly through the clutch and brake handle bar mounts and now he will either be replacing the whole master or (more than likely) making a mount out of metal putty.

Nannup Enduro Pt2

Continued on from my last video. This video has a lot more manual handling of the bikes as we started getting into the steeper country. With my hand a bit sore, I wasn't pushing the limits too much and being so far from home, I wasn't taking any hero lines. It was good to watch the lads with skills.

Was lucky enough to tag along on a weekend down in Nannup. Was supposed to be a two day ride but a crash on a down hill had me only do the one day. With a heavy shower with hail to start the ride off, I was so cold. I felt like a crash would spell a broken wrist as they were like ice blocks and nothing would give if I had to put my hands down to break a fall. Lucky it was pretty open that I cou...

Out for a quick ride over some of the shitty, rocky tracks to see how my latest shock revalve went. As I got back to the car, the rain started falling so perfect timing. I can just remove my shock with my eyes closed now. Another revalve when I got home and hopefully it goes well for tomorrow's group ride.

A mate geed me up for a ride out at Dwelly but I had to get my shock back together first. It was an 80km ride of flowy singles with a few hills thrown in. I am not a massive fan of the motoz tractionator as it is too stiff and the best grip I got out of the tyre was close to 0PSI but that still wasn't confidence inspiring going down the rutted hills.

      I’m always worried about knees. I don’t run knee braces as i get bruises and discomfort from the hard style knee guards i’ve used in the past. I am running with the Travis Pastrana 199 soft knee guards and they’ve been good so far but anytime that I see a potential foot hang up, i take that foot off the peg. I ride standing all the time though and that makes it easier to lift feet when i need to. Hope it’s nothing too serious for you with your knees.

    Hi Kenny, I will be interested in what you think about your Husky, since you have had the TPI Power kit installed. I have the same bike, it's a 2023 model with the TPI Power kit. I have noticed that I'm fouling the plugs probably every 8-12 hours of riding. I have followed the instructions from 2 Stroke Performance, regarding warming the bike up. There is a difference in power delivery with the Power kit, that's for sure. I enjoy riding my Husq, as I have had 3 of them, one 4 stroke & two 2 stokes 2017 300 & 2023 250 tpi. Like to see what you think the difference between your Beta & Husq. Sorry if your name is not Kenny, my name is Borry, I'm the guy who was asking about the riding in Dwellingup. As I have never been down there, if you dont mind one day if I or we can join in with you guys for a ride or two, your video's of the riding in Dwelly look like the tracks we love riding.

    Thanks this helped me take mine apart and replace a torn up seal. Then get it back together!

    What parts are needing replaced that causing the oil contamination? Do you run the standard valving or modify the stacks?

      I contacted the shop that sold my mate the sphere cartridges. The parts aren’t here yet but they can’t be far away. I ordered a new oil seal for the bottom of cartridge tube, new piston band for the mid valve piston as that will be contaminated, a new tube that the the mid valve piston travels in and what ever seals needed to go in with the removal of that tube. The rod for the mid valve isn’t scratched so I’ll be leaving that alone. I don’t have part numbers as the shop i was talking to was very good with just letting him know what i found and explaining what i wanted. My friend was getting it revalved at at a tuner locally but he was always complaining that it wasn’t what he wanted. I put the shims back to stock and then adjusted the stacks from there. It was multiple attempts as my mate is not very good at relaying what he wants but he is happy now with what I’ve done to them now.

    What year is your bike and what is your weight? I have a 23 200rr and I’ve been considering new suspension. I’m 220lbs ready to ride. The stock suspension range is 155 - 195.

      I’m 108kgs with no gear. Just put a 6.0kg/mm shock spring in and revalved the shock myself. I also installed a Lainer compression adjuster in the shock too as the standard sachs shock high and low speed adjuster is rubbish. It’s a 2019 200RR. In my sachs forks, i run 0.48’s. Revalved myself. You can get the Sachs suspension running good but not many know how where i am so i started doing it myself. Have done a set of honda showa forks too as a bit of fun.

      Sure. Have you had the forks apart before? If you have some tools and some hand skills, anyone can do it. And the more you play around, the more comfortable you will get. You'll need to buy the cap spanner? betausa.com/content/SUPPORT_PDF%27s/Suspension%20ZF%20FF%20Open%20Cartridge%20manual.pdf is where you'll find the manual for the forks. I had to drill out the bleed holes to 3mm on the spring guide and that allowed me to remove the oring on the shaft below the guide. The shock is a little more involved as you need nitrogen or another inert gas to charge up the shock. You'll need a fork seal driver too if you want to pull the tubes apart to inspect for wear but if the oil that comes out is grey or glittery, then you have wear. You can message me on messenger if you want, ken veivers
