I need a black plastic universal rear fender/mudguard for a Honda TL 125 in a Sammy Miller frame.. I bought a Gonelli from Fecked, but they are short - sort of 3/4 length. I bought a second and tried joining them together, but the profile was wrong and it looked rubbish. They sell white and silver, and other colours are available, but apparently not black. I don't want to paint or use alloy ones. Any ideas?

Hi All, just new to Trials and looking for some info on a 1964 TR20 Cub I bought (FMB 24B) I know it belonged to a HR (HB?) Pemberton from Colwyn Bay and was sold in 1971 to a Mike Worrall. Attached is the one photo I have but not sure who this is. Apologies if this in the wrong category Any info gratefully recieved

Hi Guys I would like to know . how to convert Triumph T20 Road Frame to TR20 specification I believe swing arm will be wider/length .. Is there any changes required in the frame. if someone have some measurements that will be great. any info will be helpful. Regards

After completing an Ossa TR 350 last year (1st restoration) i wanted to give it another go, however the Ossa cost me quite a lot of money so i wanted to see what could be achieved on a tight budget. I had a Yam TY 250 in the back of the Garage and i bought a little Montesa Cota 200 for

TY175 questions but reed valves in general. In talking to a reputable engine builder he said that "in his experience a softer reed pedal worked better for trials applications." I have replaced my stock reeds with a set of Boysen reeds but couldn't feel any difference, thoughts? Could you tell a difference or is it an accumaltive increase with each little bit making it some what better? I didn't get to ask him about the metal reed stops on the reeds, would the work better in the stock positions or would they work better if you "bent" them so they would open wider or again would it be a waist of time and energy? This is all in search of the just a little more low end grunt…

Sectioned. (I should be) Hi Guy

Hi all, Have just acquired the remnants of a b40wd. Was sold to me as a Stafford but having had those in the past I was sure the frame was different. Have found the frame number B40GB 3213 which leads me to believe it is a wd B40 issued to the UK army in 1969. The only original bits appear to be the rear wheel and the frame itself so I am thinking of creating a trials/green lane type thing. I have read a few articles on this and it seems that the wd bikes are particularly suited to this, or am i mistaken? Also, I have looked at various frame pictures online and none seem quite like mine, although it does have the bracket for the remote oil filter - any advice gr…

Hello, I recently acquired a 1985 Canam 320 Trial bike. I’m looking to source some parts for it. I’m in need of a stator with the flywheel, aswell as a front fender. Anyone know where I might be able to find atleast the stator so I can get it running?! It’s a Hiro Sammy Hiller engine

I have a yamaha ty175 and the clutch lever has to be let almost right out before it engages. I have tightened the adjuster on the handlebar in as far as it will go and it still is to far out to be able to control it properly when riding. Is there anyway of adjusting it more maybe on the engine end so that it engages a few centimetres from the handlebar. Thanks

Can anyone help me to identify these forks which are from a B40 trials bike I got earlier in the year (Surrey area). I've stripped them to replace the seals which were shot but cannot find anything to suggest a manufacturer. Stanchions are 32mm diam and 597mm long (parallel along entire length) There were two 42mm x 32mm x 7mm seals in each fork (is it normal to have 2 seals?) I'd like to get info on what volume and sort of oil to use in them Thanks in advance for any replies.

Firstly apologies, i am useless with ignition systems, and this one is so simple !! ​I have a Honda TL125 hat was running, as i didnt have a stop switch fitted yet, and as i had a connection in th the black lead that comes out of the stator coil (?) (one on left of engine, i pulled it apart and the engine stopped. Then straight away connected it back up and no spark at all. ​Then after a bit of messing, connected the lead to the white one coming out of the stator coil (?) - it then started - i then put my hand over the carb to stop the bike - it now wont start on either connection and only occassionally has a spark when connected to the white lead.? ​What have i done…
