Classic Trials

Hi guys can anybody help with info on how to remove the speedo drive from an HT5 rear wheel. I am used to Norton ones which just pull off. I believe the HT5 drive has a locking ring is this the C spanner ring behind the speedo drive? If yes is it LH or RH thread? Need to take it off to get my spokes repaired

Hi, my rear hub brake needs relining, the new pads do not engage with the hub enough to work. Can anyone recommend someone that can remove and replace the existing liner. Its a Bultaco Sherpa T, 1966 ish. Local to Oxfordshire / South of the UK would be a bonus, but Im happy to travel to get working rear brake. Thanks

Hi, I’m looking to buy a Cub. Please let me know if anyone has one they’re looking to sell. Thanks

My TK carb is just worn out on my Yamaha mono TY. I'm looking into replacing it with the old stand bye, the Mikuni VM26. I had read that Jon S. had success with these. Does anyone know the jetting specs for a Mikuni VM26? Thank you for your help.

Recently acquired a 1963 Cub converted to a TR20 replica complete with 3TA forks. I am a relatively light rider (65kg) and find the suspension very hard and also noisy with the rebound 'slam'. I am toying with the idea of fitting progressive springs (and possibly rebound springs) ?? The legs have casting numbers H1119 and H1120 (possibly suggests sidecar origins ??) with what I believe are a red/white marked 464mm long springs. The units themselves feel smooth and tight so I'm disinclined to dismantle them further. Any experience, advice or suggestions for suitable solutions would be very much appreciated.

Does anyone have any info on frames made for Bantams by Paul? Munslow

OK, it’s obviously Grimeca, but what did it come from and where can I get pads and seals? It came off my well-used Beta TR35, at least that’s what I think it is after a lot of research. But I can’t find any reference to a 4 piston caliper/mount combo like this on *any* Beta parts list from the 88 to 92 era, at least. It fits my (steel) swingarm like it was made for it. The pistons measure 25 and 22m. Everything is in good shape except for the dust seals, which have completely disintegrated. Short term I can reassemble w/o them, but I’d much having them there, obviously. thanks for any pointers, Sam

I have most of a 1968 B44. The main thing I don't have is an engine, and these engines seem hard to find. Would a Triumph unit twin fit into that frame without too much trouble?
