Hi folks. Does anyone know who made the frame for that rather nice and expensive BSA C15 for sale in the adds. Too expensive for me but would like a good frame to build my own.

That's great I'll try him tomorrow. Yes am worried will get carried away!!

Hi all, can someone confirm Jim Pickerings contact details for me and when is best to catch him. Got a bantam project on the go and after some upgrades. Cheers Steve

The triumph adventurer was basically a unit bsa frame, b25/b50 oif with the triumph twin engine fitted in it for trails, green lane work.

I think some of the smaller cc Fantics had 32mm Marzocchi forks

Hi Frank, I remember you visiting in 1984 and coming to the house. The painting is still hanging in the same place. Many thanks for the message of condolences and happy memories of my dad. I will let my mum know. Steve Cooper.

If anyone knows where there is a Cooper Bantam tucked away in a corner or is available please let me know. I would like to get hold of one of my dad bikes even if just the frame to build up. It would be a nice memory to have and use. Cheers Steve

Hi All, Anyone know where I can get some rickman brake shoes for my trials bike. Front and back. Thanks Steve

Hi all, Have a 250 replica james I have recently finished. The only problem is the carb. I have it on a MK1 amal 24mm, 20 pilot, 130 main and 105 needle with the clip in the top notch. The slide is a brass one and is a 3. Whilst it was fine at the previous trial it ran really rich on Saturday and cost me marks. The carb is a nearly new one so don't think there are any issues there. I am open to ideas as know they can be a bit funny on carburation. Thinking of a dellorto as they are faily cheap on e-bay. Any views welcome. Cheers Steve

Hi All, Anyone know where I can get a decent trials gear lever for my james ? Cheers Steve

Not sure of the year. Can i find out from the frame number etc ??

Hi All, Dragged my dad's RTL250 out the garage. Its been sat there several years and shows it!!! Its been done in Rothman's colours and has a home mades front disc conversion on it. Hopefully all the bits are there to turn it back to standard. Looking to get it up and running so it can be used. Rather spend the money on that than aquiring another twinshock!!!. Looking for any help and advice on spares, restoring, paintjob's etc before I launch into it. Had a Seeley Long long ago before went down the mono yam route then had a rest from trials for too long but getting into it again now. Cheers Steve.

Hi All, After some new trials jeans as have very old ellgrens. Would like some with padded knees as always bash them. Cost in mind as always but which ones are the best to go for Hebo, Jitsie, Cliche, XC-ting etc. Help appreciated. Steve
