Classic Trials

Has anyone got any idea when the regs for the Manx Classic come out and where to get them from. In previous years, by the time I've found out they are out the trial is already full.... I'd really like to do it this year along with the Manx National and make a week's holiday out of it as I've never done either. I e-mailed the club yesterday so waiting for their reply but just wondered if anyone on here knew - or even has a set already....

More good stuff from Youtube:

This looks interesting. I'd love to see Bernie ride again. From Todotrial As you will already know exists for several years a Championship of Europe de Trial de Cla'sicas (you can see the calendar of tests in zone 4 of Classic Todotrial) denominated Eurocup, that consists of six tests in six different European countries. Then the FIM has wanted to take a step and to harness the trial of classic more to the maximum creating a new exclusive international contest for classic motos, like it happens to other specialties like the speed, but this time for trial. Yes, one is World-wide about Trial de Cla'sicas, that will dispute for the first time in 2008 and that it will count…

I need a new tank for the Sherpa T 199 i'm restoring. Have looked at the plastic tanks that Bultacouk sell which are in a matt finish. Were the tanks originally in a matt finish, or should i spray the tank to a gloss finish?

Im interested in adding one of these (if i can find one?) it wont be a rigid!!! to my collection as ive always loved the look of these bikes, how much are these in good condition? what year/ model best? how effective are these in pre65 trials (dont quote len hutty as thats more to do with the rider than the bike! ) also can one get used to the rear brake being on the left side of the machine as ive always been on continental re japs style bikes most of my life! pointers what to look for in case of being ripped off? thanks in advance lads

Hi, Im looking for a supplier of the two small oil seals located right at the bottom of the forks on my Ossa 350 1977. They are 16mm diameter, hole size 8mm and 2mm thickness. Im located in the North East of the UK, Anyone can help ? Vaughan.

I've fitted new red gonelli mudgaurds on my kt, but i needed to match the colour so i can paint the tank and side panels, so i went to autospray paint factors near me and we matched it up!!! If any one else needs the colour its - St Germain red (duller variant) manufacturer - Suzuki car.

Is there any way i can find out if my KT 250 has ever been registered and find out the registration number ????????????

I've been trying to get chain and sprockets for my kawasaki kt last week with no luck!!! Does anyone know where in the U.K i can get some???? I've tried BVM and TALON and they haven't got any!!

I hate having to pay a fortune for trials tyre!!!!!!! Are there any good deals about???

Has anyone done any long distance trials such as the Moor to Sea and the Ilkley Trial? I fancy a go at something a bit different. If so what sort of bike would be suitable? A pre 65,a twinshock or even a modern enduro type bike? What sort of bikes are popular in these events and are the trials any good? Any thoughts/comments welcomed.

is this a road trial or on private land ?

Whilst busy working this afternoon; came across this clip http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-6...mp;q=blue+peter Can anyone identify the bike and/or rider; It's a shame that they failed to blow up Anthea Turner (and the perm) completely.

While looking around I came across this Classic dirt bike Nice Bultaco and Mick Andrews so must be worth a look, 2 new YOU HAVE USED WORDS OR A PHRASE WHICH ARE NOT PERMITTED ON THIS WEBSITE.
