Hi, I’ve just joined the forum as I’m completely obsessed with the Panther Stroud and I’ve been lucky to pickup a genuine Stroud motor for my trials project! Now I’m looking for a Stroud petrol tank ( rocking horse s**t!!) my particular obsession is with the alleged Springer Stroud that was built and sent to Sweden in around 1953!!

Hello everybody. I'm Alan and am not really new to the trials scene. I used to ride very lightly 5 or so years ago and have just bought myself a new toy. Hoping to get a little more into it this time and do a bit of travelling with the bike! Talk to you all on here soon! Alan.

Hi all, new to this forum but an old soul to motorcycling (considering my age). I bought a Mod. 116 in about 50 pieces I years ago and did an amateur restore a few years after that. I rode it a few times and then bent the kickstarter shaft on a monster backfire, so the cases had to be split again. I'm back at it and have a bare frame and a beaut of an engine being assembled. Excited to have another go at this and really knock this out of the park especially since I FINALLY found a reasonable and in good shape spark arrestor on an auction site for 45 dollars. I'll post some pics later but wanted to say hi. Gonna need to up my monthly parts budget esp of I want those …

Howdy, Thought I pop a quick post up here in the meet and greet area !!! My name is Mike, a long time rider... born and raised here in Colorado. I have some very limited trials experience with a couple prior bikes (Bultaco Alpina, Yamaha TY-250). I just picked up a new to me 1980 Bultaco Sherpa 350 199a. Not going to jump on any competitions out of the gate, just go bumping around in the mountains with my buddy on his Yamaha TY350 !!! Here's a link to my restore on my Sherpa... enjoy !!! 1980 Bultaco Sherpa 350 199a

Hi To All, Bought myself a Beta Rev3, a while back and have been slowly rebuilding back to a decent standard, got a problem though, sent the Barrel and Piston off to JETBORE in April, not received it back, just a whole load of excuses, Lost in Post, i have been off with a bad back, try phoning them and e-mailing them, no answer, suprise suprise.....Now bought a full top end off this great website, from a top bloke, George in Ayshire... So hopefully will be out on it next week, Can't wait, was wondering if anyone else has had a problem with JETBORE... If you have'nt beware, don't send them your hard earned cash, you may be let down badly. On a brighter note, the Beta is…

Hi guys. Been riding offroad bikes here in South Africa for a while, started getting into enduros very recently. I always wanted a Trials bike and decided to get one to hone my skills for my enduro riding. Bought myself a 2003 Beta Rev3. What a great machine. I might actually drop the enduro and compete in Trials one day. When I got the Beta, I did what i always did when i buy a secondhand bike and stripped it, checked everything out and re-assembled it. Nothing really to fix. Guess it's true that these bikes last very long. Took it for my first ride quickly (Did not kit up so i took it easy) at a small rocky hill behind where i stay just to get a feel for the bi…

Hi All. I purchased a 2006 TXT Pro 300 5 years ago but never really used it much as I don't know any other trials riders locally. Plus I was into track racing so hadn't the time really. Now I'm rebuilding the bike as it hasn't had much TLC from me or its previous owner by the looks of it. When it's all done I hope to put more effort into learning to ride properly!
