Classic Trials

Take a look at this, item number 220077682406 I first thought it was a bsa bamtan engine shoehorned into a beamish frame!!! it dont look right to me? what do you all think? perhaps it was purpose built? who knows?

Hi, Wounder if any of you may have a clue how this rider is? http://i633.photobucket.com/albums/uu54/pa...0_BantamBSA.jpg The photo came from a French classic website, but unfortunatley I dont remember the address, apologize. Pat

after getting savaged by a rottweiler on Sunday, some of my humour about riding trials had left me, but after putting this clip together in the office today it renewed my faith This is why I ended up swimming in the stream on section 4 yesterday, laughing. A few people in the office heard Dale's commentary, came over for a look and also were rather interested, more in the falling off than the sport, but could see what fun it is. Ah well, feel better now.

September 23rd 2007 is the date for the Twinshock Trials enthusiast. The Wye Valley Auto Cub will be running a traditional road road based trial dedicated to Twinshock trials motorcycles. The trial will be run over a 30 mile loop taking in 12 groups, using 30 observed sections. Using many of the old Wye Valley Traders Groups in the area,plus new groups the organisers have managed to secure. The organisers are hoping to attract some of the riders of the Twinshock era from the 70s and 80s as well as many of the regulars of todays Twinshock scene. The trial will have two routes, so riders who take part in the ACU classic series and the Sammy Miller serieswill be catered…

Just a quick thanks for a great trial today,although i ride a modern mono,i find the sections perfect for my level [average]. I know some do,nt like moderns riding a classic trial,but hey would it be viable without them?Cheers

Anybody have any idea when yamaha introduced there first Competition Bikes Vinnie

Hi, does anybody happen to know what the different positions on the Yamaha TY 125 ignition switch are for? Thanks!

Has anybody any opinions on using E5/E10 petrol in a TY125? My son has been restoring one and is at the point of (fingers crossed) starting it up, but the question of running an old two stroke bike with E5 or E10 petrol has come up.. None of the companies websites are clear (e.g. Esso, Shell) whether any of their fuel is guaranteed ethanol free (e.g. Synergy Supreme+ 99 which in some areas has ethanol in, some not..), so I wondered what the general opinion is? In theory Oxfordshire (where he lives) should have ethanol free Synergy Supreme+ 99, but I'd rather he not be a guinea pig..

I inherited a late 70’s / early 80’s TY175 off my brother but it’s missing the petrol tank, I don’t suppose anyone has one kicking about they would like to sell ? thanks

Hi all, Is there an alternitave kickstart shaft for a 1976 ty175, my shaft splines have been took off and i need a new shaft but cant find one, a shaft the same on another bike would be ok -josh

Hi all, what’s the best oil for the gearbox on a 1988 ty 250 mono? gotta take the plates out cos the stick when not being used so will need fresh oil cheers guys

Im about to rebuild my wheels with new tyres and was wondering what people do when they run tubes. I have Michelins on ally rims but not tubeless so not sure if I should run rimlocks or not.
