Hi there, i have recently bought a 94 tyz250 and I am hoping to get into the trials scene. I have done a couple of trials about four years ago and really enjoyed it. I am just getting my bike up to scratch before entering any competitions. Is anyone from around my area interested in maybe meeting up to give me a few pointers or riding advice? I have raced speedway, motorcross, and enduro, I have a fair amount of experiance at trail riding and also I have a cbr600fx road bike.

Hi, I would like to know the whereabouts of Walwin motorcycles. There should be about 10 or 15 out there somewhere. They were built between 1958 to 1972.

Hello. Bought a Scorpa SY(?)250 a couple months back. After 8 years without any bike. Have done four beginner trials with the West of England Club. (Top score of 38 so far!!) Bike has a few issues that I keep meaning to get to, clutch wants bleeding, front brake sticking, wrong size needle, drinks fuel.... but hey, its great fun & gets me off my backside! I'll be posting some questions in the 'how to...' forum as soon as I find it. Cheers Karl.

I'm trying to re-build an Aprilia Climber 240cc from a load of bits I bought off ebay. Why? I hear you cry! In truth I'm not really sure, it started off as a project when I bought the frame. Me and my son were going to make it into something together. Then I got hold of the original engine, and now I'm kinda hooked on trying to get it back to an original state. Fact is, I'm several bits missing, and spares for this beast are expensive. For one, the coil is missing. A new one is

Howdy! I'm Mike from Tampa. I was a member of the Florida Trials Association in the 70's, in the time of Curly Goforth and Brock Sattelmeier, and rode with my friend Thom Tysl (Suzuki RL250). We rode usually at Gran Canyon in Brooksville ( which became a Disc Golf course later, and is now someone's investment property), on my (later) repainted, tricked-out but still hugely heavy home-welded slanted-shock Marland Whaley-replica Honda TL 250, joined the Air Force, rode some in the Omaha, Nebraska area on a (then new, and fondly remembered) Bultaco Sherpa T 350, got posted to England, and lost access to trials riding from there on out. But I still have a fondness for …

Hi I have just joined today; I have dabbled with motor cycles all my life, in my youth I scrambled on a Cotton Starmaker and then a BSA Victor being part of the Ipswich Motors Cycle and Light Car Club. I then did a bit of Speedway in 1975 for a few years and then finished with some Grass track. Now the family have grown up I have got a Honda CB750 for commuting to work and a very good friend has loaned me his Montesa Cota 348 with the view of doing it up and then being able to do a bit of twin shock trials this winter. I am very impressed with this web site.
