Classic Trials

this realy was and is a great trial. Spud, you missed out this year! cheers Lee

I'm planning to put a Bultaco rear wheel on a C15. I also have the swingarm and am wondering if it may be a better idea to install that also. From what I read, the C15 arm has limited tire clearance and is improved if made longer by an inch. C15 type mounts could be welded to the front of the Bultaco arm to accomplish both. Has anyone done this? Are there other recommendations?

Bilco, fanny 200, number 98, doesnt look happy.... neither did Fritz on the MZ laying down. http://s521.photobucket.com/albums/w332/Fa...0Exmoor%202010/

G'Day We have an ongoing discussion going on in Australia regarding the fact that a Bultaco Sherpa M10 won our national championship Classic (Pre 65) class last year and with the championships coming up again soon we need to know the facts about this model of Bultaco. Can anyone tell us without any shadow of doubt that the M10 was available to the retail market prior to Jan 1st 1965. My memory isn't clear enough to recall when Sam first appeared on his Sherpa but somewhere there must be facts and figures to either support or dispute the legitemacy of the model over here. I need to be refered to manufacturers records or something definite that proves when mass producti…

Does anyone here know why when the Japanese started to produce bikes they chose to put the gear lever on the left instead of the right which was the norm on the Brit bikes at the time. I know it's not strictly a trials question as it covers road as well . Was there a reason for it I wonder ?? I will delete this topic if I can fathom it out. Thanks in advance. (I should know this but I can't remember)

Think this has been posted before, but has anybody noticed the rider at 4.49 looks to be using the clutch. Thought this was illegal or something back then !

Hello, My name is Morgan, I am 23, and live in Saskatchewan Canada. I was recently at a garage sale and saw an old bike, thinking it was a Honda Elsinore from behind. Got closer, realized it was a Montesa, owner asked me if I would like top buy it. I replied, "no, I don't have that kind of money", he laughed and said, "For $40 she is yours." So I bought it. It seems to be in decent shape, however it is missing a few bits and pieces. He had told me it did not have spark, and upon further inspection I found that the points are not opening up. So I have located replacement points and a condensor. My first question is, does anyone know where I can get flywheel pull…
