The forks are standard. IIts the distance between the yokes that makes the travel look short. i needed to raise the top yoke to clear the tank on full lock. I also want to paush the forks through as far as possible to quicken the steering slightly. Classictrial head angle change is out of my budgert for the time being.

Having said they the forks dont bottom but dont match the rear falcon which are very soft. Still I have a week to go...


steve, did we bet 5, 50 or 500 quid ;-)

Well Lee,

Did you enjoy yourself at the Sun Inn?? was it wet enough for you..?

It was sad news indeed that after the presentations Bill Pye announced that this year would be the last three day trial,
the land owners are in there 80's and i guess its all getting a bit much.. (there wasnt a dry eye in the place)

Thanks to Bill who has brought us many years of the best trialing for our old bikes, not many people understand how much
work is involved in running this trial... the bracken has to be chopped down and work starts many weeks beforehand, and after
the trial finishes there is still lots to do..! well done Bill, Rose and the team :D

ps: It would be nice if another land owner would let us use their land maybe???? "just a thought"

Hi Scrumpy, you beat me to it. It wer reet grand. Lots of fun, loads of mud, I dont even think I was last!

IŽll second that, my thanks to Rose and Bill, I recognise the work involved and the trial reflected that. Thank you.

My thanks also go to Chris at Classic Trial, he was spot on the the jetting on the OKO, a 35 is also the best ;-) I got my Tanks and I saw he had some great succuss with one on a big four stroke. The 340 did the lot, I was the one lagging!

Also thanks to the rest of you guys who pick me up out of some of that mud. IŽll post a few video clip links later.

Were are the results posted????

Jep picked up the enfield. It rattled so I got it 250 pounds cheaper. I paid 1250 for a 61 500 in a 54 crusader frame. dont look like tonys....yet
