Twinshock

Hi everyone does anyone know if kickstart gears are the same on other models ie 247.or can anyone help me locate them cheers for any help!

I have a ty250d project bike i'm working on, frame has had headstock steepened & peg mounts moved with modern pegs by previous rider. I've just gotten the parts to rebuild the foxshox(trials type) that were already fitted, had to reposition mounts to bring bike back to level. Now for the big question, are there any worthwhile mods that can be done to the forks while they're apart for seals, ie possibly remake damper rods in alloy with any suggested alterations to hole size & position. I know they'll never feel anything like a set of modern forks but if they can be improved why shouldn't i do it?

Hi Just want some idea of the value of the bikes above. Both start and run. The Yam not so well as I have not touched it for about 6 months but looks good and could do with a tune. The Ital is in very good condition, no rattles, plenty of power and it still has the original tires, Michellin, in excellent condition. I am thinking of listing them on Ebay. I have three other bikes (Montesas) and as I am getting on I just can't find the time to give them all a good run. What do you reckon would be a reasonable price to expect? The bikes are located in Australia. Thanks for any advice.

Forget little 200 Honda's, how about xl500 power!! Seen on French ebay

Have just acquired a rare aprilia 50 trials of 1981 vintage..... (similar to a fantic 50). It's got the obligatory minarelli motor but the carburations a bit, erm, fluffy! -runs all nice at tick over, ok on full throttle but not so good on the rest. Carb doesn't have a pilot jet, just a main and an emulsion tube. Anybody got a carb of japanese origin (approx 15mm) they would care to pass on for a good price......? Andy. ps. or 125 honda 4 stroke motor.......

Does any of the Cota 330 owners group have a 330 with full wiring/lights intact? Need a couple of queries answered.. cheers sandy.

Any one going this weekend from Southern / South East centre ?

While my TLR waits for completion, I have turned my attention to finishing up my model 49 Sherpa T. I have seen photos of this model with a silver frame and some with a black frame. Anyone know which is the stock color?

The skid plate for my 74 TY250A is missing. B&J Racing has aftermarket plates, but the owner got hurt and is unable to ship. Are there other options for a skid plate, possibly from a different bike that will fit, or aftermarket that will fit with a little modification? Thank You Glenn

Some time ago I posted for information for the Main bearing numbers on a Cota 247cc 1978 / 1980, Unfortunately I did not print the post and it has now been deleated Therefore could any body please let me have the bearing numbers and seal numbers if available Many thanks, and this time I will print them

Hello, Looking to make my Ossa clutch a little easier to pull. I have a Teflon cable. Just wondering if anyone has done anything with springs. Taking all suggestions. Thanks.

Hi folks, There will be another ahrma Trials at Unadilla's MX Rewind this year. June 5th. I am in need of checkers. If you are available, or have friends who can help, please let me know with a PM. The Trials is right after the CC race. Several people I know do both the CC race and the Trials, so there's time between events to make your way over. There will also be at least 1st place trophies for novice, intermediate and expert classes, for post 1979 air-cooled Trials bikes with drum brakes and twin shocks, even though this is a non points ahrma class. Feel free to ask me any questions about the event. And please help out if you can.

Hello I have a 1983 349MH which I think has the wrong stautions. With the bike lent against the wall the length from the centre of the axle to the bottom of the bottom yolk is 52cm. Is there anyone out there with one of these bikes who could take this measurment for me. Thanks

just got my ossa 350 gripper back together after the psiton rings yet and a thought struck me, being 1980 would it be better to run it on leaded or unleaded, will it make much if a difference either way, im not bothered about performance, just wondering how running unleaded in an engine that old will affect engine wear. oh yeah, does anyone know what sort of mix i should be running, we ran it on 25:1 but we dont know

Hi. Got a 248 with a buckled front wheel and awfull brake!!! Have a spare beamish wheel, what's the chance of it fitting the mont? Cheers
