Classic Trials

I have a couple of bikes I would like to show at Malvern next year and I would quite like to do the autojumble too. I missed it this year as I was on holiday, I am about to book my holiday for next year and don't want to miss the show - does anyone know when it is being held yet? Cheers, Jim

Any help would be appreaciated. Haynes manual says you have to remove clutch, alernator, primary chain tensioner, and engine sprocket simultaniously (probably dropping all 25 beatings in the process) before removeing the cluth back plate to get access to gearbox sprocket. Is this the only way or are there any shortcuts ? Thanks.

In the process of getting my James ready for the dreaded m.o.t. as the Scottish i rapidly approaching So is there anything i need to do or make sure of as i have never m.o.t. d a trials bike before. Do i need a horn? reflector ? speedo? All advice appreciated

Would like to update the steering on my original Godden framed Majesty, and thanks to someone on here have found a top guy able to do it for me. However the mods I have asked about would be quite costly (

I have got a 1980 Montesa 123 and the rear brake pedal has seen better days. I contacted Sandifords and they informed that the part is NLA, so does any one have one lying around or know if they would be available in Spain? Cheers

Did the 1st round go ahead last weekend? Nothing in the TMX? Anyone got any results?

There now seem to be several new updated chassis kits available for P65 and twinshock bikes, wonder if anyone knows exactly what is available and the prices being asked?

Hi Guys, I'm new. I live in Portugal and always loved doing trials but in a very "unpro" way. I mean I have limited time to ride the bike, so if ride the bike I often feel like it has sqaure wheels, flat tires, and it on purpose makes me fall. Anyway, I still have a brand new exhust pipe lying in my shed and don't know what to do with it. The problem is I don't really know for wich bike it is. I know I bought it years ago from a trials lover (sorry for my bad English, I'm from Belgium) so I'm quite sure it's suppose to fit on a Honda Trials bike. But wich bike? Here are the specs: HM446 Honda Krizman Spark Arrester Model 411 US Pat #3407575 SANKEI 2045 Hopefully …

Wonder if anyone has the results of the Colin Dommet trial held last week?

Seen the other post on the 50's and 60's trials, here is another one thats worth watching.

Not sure if this is a repost but this video is great ! I,m sure Big John and other pre 65 riders will love this. http://www.veoh.com/videos/v6308839jd2xSk29

There's some kind of rubber seal in the bottom of Amal L2627/402 (Made in Spain) choke plunger. In my carb this seal is worn out so it doesn't work properly. From where I could get a new one plunger?

How many people out there are restoring old trials bikes at the moment ??????????? theres gotta be loads of us?? We must be mad???????

Just for fun! In Mike Rapleys header, I used a picture from a classic trial. Who is it and where and when was the picture taken? For a bonus point - I modified the original picture. Can you tell me what shouldn't be there. Nice and easy for most of you guys I bet !

Hi, I was told this is the place to be for the following... (taken from a classic bike forum i use) I know the reg so if theres any pictures somewhere?...

Hi trial-ites, I have a conundrum... I ride a 1986 TLR200 its in good nick and almost every time I pass the garage I'm in there fiddling with this or that, making it slowly better and better. It doesn't cost much to keep going, virtually nil on fuel or oil, and replacing consumables, bearings etc are what you'd expect to do on any bike. And there's no linkage bushes to maintain. So ok, its cheap to run, Its nice looking and goes well. Here's my problem. Nearly all my mates ride modern monos. They keep saying I should chop in "the old nail" (bloody cheek!) and join them in the ranks of the banana frame brigade. I'm always near the bottom of our group in the results t…

Can I download an entry form from somewhere? or does anyone know the entry fee and I will use a standard form Thanks
