I have the mould tooling to make the covers, Also the moulded seat pad tooling

The shock used was made by Falcon, and there is a unused modified mono s/arm listed on ebay from time to time, ( Ian at J A M Sport , I think ) I have the tank cover mould ,which is different to the twinshock one, as there is no flared parts for the shocks mounts.

Vanman There are TWO rubber seals one at the face the other at the rear,they fit into shallow recesses, if these have been missing for some time the brake pedal can get sloppy,and wear the hole. If you buy new seals try to get the ones with a metal outer cage,

CP191 I would advise caution with the above post !

CP191 Certainly the real deal !. except for part of the rear silencer box, which looks to have had a trail bike style rear end grafted on. Looks like the frame has been plated, ask your uncle ,was the frame ever painted blue ? bit of a story to this bike.

Hi CP191 Has the bike been painted blue at some stage in its life ? If so I can tell you some history to the bike.

The 250 is a totaly different hub , bigger diameter brake drum, so bigger diameter brake shoes, straight pull spokes, uses the same spindle far better brake than the 200

Hi Roger, the phone no is out of date, new no 07855 888808

Two models of 80cc small wheel (red tank), and the big wheel with the leading axle adaptor on the front forks, as for the blue tank model ,( some where 125) pretty sure it is single figures.

Oxboy is right, Whitehawk. very few where made in this size , possibly only six, will have a short wheelbase when built up, not realy suitable for an adult,

Whizzy Read your PMs

Bob Gollner put a Husky motor in a Cheetah trials bike back in 1967 or 1968, Gordon Adsett rode it in the Hoad national, it did not perform well compared to the villiers version

I take it you are talking 35mm TLR 200 forks ? the difference is the 250 forks are longer, but is is achieved in the damper rod ,slightly more travel, so possible to upgrade/modify 200 forks, but as quite a few people with 250s run the legs up through the top yoke, you may feel it is not worth the effort.

It is the Motoplastique one ,with the polyethelene inner tank ,£200 in gloss gell coat colour finish, and it fits properly, unlike some of the others, that the fork legs hit on full lock.

If it had not been for the date at the top of the page, I would have thought you where talking about Sammy Miller in the mid 1970s in the southern centre !
