Twinshock

It begins.........oh, did I mention it was GREEN!

Just acquired what I am led to believe is an Ossa TR77 - a 250cc Ossa of 1978 vintage (Frame No 8-700191). Does anyone know anything about these bikes? and more importantly does anyone have the correct air filter and side panels for this bike? It might also be very useful if someone can remind me how to attach a picture - I can't remember how I did it previously and the help menu doesnt seem to have anything useful to say

anyone doing green this year(kt250),currently emptying my wallet on this one(but having a blast doing it) has anyone ever seen a plastic replacement tank?

Hi all...... My dad knows some one who has a greeves challenger... is it a trials bike or a mx bike? Cheers danny

Found this on Italian Ebay....... http://annunci.ebay.it/annunci/moto/monza-brianza-annunci-monza/greeves-scottish-250-mod-24tcs-trial-epoca-anno-1960-rara/19664103

I have a bike fitted with a 110mm conical Grimeca hub which is very similar to those fitted to a Fantic. It differs in the following ways; the strengthening hubs internally are much larger, there are small strengthening ribs visible on the outside of the hub, the distance between the spoke sets left and right is narrower resulting in a narrower hub. It was originally white. Fantic sprocket and back plate fit. The bike was constructed in about 1983 or 1984. Does anyone have one for sale or know of a model it was fitted to.

Hi all Just purchased a 1982 gripper 350, came with a mikuni 28 mm on it, can anyone provide me with jetting that works well for them? cheers bob

I've had enough !!!. I have finally got mad enough to remanufacture fibre-glass airboxes for the TR-80 250 and 350. A local fairing maker can run them off, but the cost of the initial mould is quite high. If we can order say 10 at the same time, it makes it much cheaper. At the moment,

Anybody know how much ?. Thanks in advance. Peter

Does anyone know what colour orange 250 Ossa Grippers were (e.g. RAL code) so I can get some paint mixed to the correct colour?

Here is a link to another site where this bike has been mentioned. Anyone know more about these bikes or seen or riden them? http://www.ozvmx.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3179

Anybody know where I can get a kickstart lever and front fender for a GRM Trialsmaster?

Where do I buy a good set of trials bars that are with a 6 or seven inch height or does anyone make risers for a TY250A? I would prefer that they had little or no sweep back.

My Cota 247 has had quite a few bar bending spills - and now even a light fall results in a bend so I I think they are past their use by date. Can I get some suggestions on replacements. I do like the original wide bars they are approx 820 mm (32 inches) and I would prefer something without the cross bar support so as to keep the original look.

What bars work best on a KT-250? The ones that were on it were sup high rise. Regular bars seem low and very close to me. The handlebar clamps on the triple clamps are way back near the tank.

A friend who is not that handy with forums and other complex matters just browses and email has one of these bikes which he might be selling but doesn't know how original this is and what year it is. I'd say the seat is not original, the rest seems fine. The bike is for sale in MD but he is trying to appraise its value, any input is welcomed. To contact the owner directly w2ss@lycos.com

Hi my name is Morten. I just bought this bike, possible the only Wassell in Norway. (registered for road use) I was told it is a 1974 Trial ? Antilope ? Can anyone tell me anything about this particular bike ? The seat and taillight is for sure not original, anything else ? Regards Morten

Hi everyone ,im after some help .My bully 199b as a really bad top end rattle on tickover (sounds like piston slap to me )then clears when revved .Its just had a new pattern piston,little end bearing and a rebore (not the best rebore i've had done )it had a bit of play ,but guy measured it and said nothing to worry about so i put the top end on.Anybody else had a problem before ....Thanks .....Also should have said it only started to rattle after about 2-3 litres of petrol ,running it around my yard .

I've got a white plastic petrol tank that's turned yellowish with the petrol vapour over the years. Is it possible to get rid of this yellowing to restore to its former beauty and if so how? Many thanks

. Bore and piston is OK on the 349 but the piston pin has suffered from the same internal corrosion that wrecked many other parts (I already have a rod and big-end kit to fit). I can get a new piston, with a pin, for the oh-so modest sum of
