Hello T.C.M's I'm trying to find parts for my 84' Ty 250,and as I search the Net I'm finding it difficult to locate much of anything ? However,parts seem to be available in other countries...Am I missing some Canadian sites or are parts for theses bikes really not available here ? Do I really have to order parts from the UK or from down-under... Where do you other Ty owners get parts ; am I not looking hard enough ? I know here in Nova Scotia these bikes are a rarity and parts even more scarce... Any-thoughts ? Thanks

Hello from the Isle of Man!! Im gonna jump straight to my point... I have a 2010 Gas Gas pro300 and yesterday whilst riding i noticed my front forks felt different. When i say differen, its when i pull the front end up and there was no real dampening and the forks knock just before the wheels comes off the dirt. I also noticed they dont push down as far as before. Any help or advice would be great. Chris

HI how strange another new member from colchester area. I have been riding bikes a long time and have had a couple of goes at trials in the past. I have a Bultaco 325 1976 recently restored, a 315 Montesa 2000, a BMW R1200S, (I love this machine), and a KTM EXC400 that I use for green laneing, I was a member of Castle Colchester, but now plan to join Braintree club as its more trials oriantated. I am a civil engineering consultant, this is a pain as it uses up to much time that could be better spent riding.

Afternoon New to the forum, just a bit of background, I'm an experienced road bike & trail rider, plus I do a few non competitive Enduroland type events. Anyway although I now live in Suffolk I come from Devon and have ridden my friends Montesa down there a few times and really enjoyed it. So over the next few months I'm going to buy a trials iron and give it a go. So sorry but just a few typical newbie questions if I may? Apart from the track near Lowestoft is there anywhere else in Anglia where I can go practice? I live near Bury St Edmunds so this means I'm closer to Essex/Cambs. Can anyone recommend a club to join that maybe have a few beginner events and is g…

Well, here I am...... Which means I have joined the dark side. Last night at 10.30pm my wife emailed a seller to say that I could buy a clean 2003 Scorpa SY250. I spent about 15 minutes on the same bike a few weeks ago, outside the sellers garage and everything has gone from there. I have been riding bikes since age 14, and am now 48. Currently run a BMW R1200GS for my wife and I. I always wanted to ride a trials bike and used to play about with off road type bikes in the past. My intention is to enjoy myself..... maximum expectation is to be a novice dabber in a clubmans event or two every year. I live in Rochester, Kent in the UK, so if there are places close by…
