Plus this weeks bonus content includes the fitment of some brand new S3 Hardrock pegs!

If y’all don’t have a compressor but have a leaf blower, you can use that.

I also spray water displacement lube on the spoke nipples and then wipe the rims to remove over spray. Don't spray the disk brakes, you'll be sorry. Now my spokes will never seize up.

If your're having trouble staying on the bike it might be the silicone as it very slippery. Don't get it on the grips.

I noticed that you don't put grease on the sealing edge of the air filter. After your bike bores itself out you will.

I had a 2013 Ossa and sold it a few weeks later due to the access to the air filter. My 2021 gasgas and that beta are a sinch.

They are indeed!
Do you know that the only bearings that are sealed on the beta are the wheel bearings so just be careful with a power washer because my dads beta the stem was almost seized and it had only been jet washed once
Ask dad about nooks and crannys as you mentioned Dads got angry and said he has never nooked a cranny in his life!!

In this video you mention that you'd be doing a full breakdown/prep video. I'm interested in hearing more about the dog bone and bearing maintenance that you mentioned, is it in another one of your videos?

I was going to ask the same question.
A wash ? I take excellent care of my bikes, and yours looks quite clean.

Looks like the foot peg bolt supplied by S3 is too short, as it’s my understanding, your supposed to have 1.5 turns of thread at the outside of the nut, for 100% mechanical fit. It looks like it’s not got into the nylock.

Cleaning really is a thing for those that don’t want their bike to rot away lol, and good luck with the dog bones we have that video coming soon!
What was your solution for the dog bones?

Strip them and re-grease, they always have play in them. It’s a Beta thing….
Y'all don't have leaf blowers in the UK? So much more efficient and faster
