  1. I was looking at the TRR but went for the Jitsie ht2 flow, similar spec.
  2. Guy has also been associated with HOPE who are event sponsors and make wonderful things from aluminium..
  3. Hi Andy They are tight! If you have an arc welder, if you run it around the old bearing face it seems to heat the bearing locally and it falls off. Alternatively, you can cut through it very carefully with a disk cutter - take care not to catch the stem or yoke ! Stu

    Great Red Rose trial at weekend. Bulto likes the rocks
  5. Sounds weak and as it warms up it will get worse? Try lifting the needle or a lower cut out slide

    Greg, I didn't use the bike before fitting so it's hard to say..

    Here's my version and also vestys
  8. So it runs when it's rich (I.e. With choke on) - agree with cleanorbust sounds like an air leak..
  9. I've been lucky enough to have been allowed to enter a D5 bantam framed Sunbeam/tigress in the Scottish. Fingers crossed for an entry, very interesting bike!
  10. Thanks Derek, yes I'm a subscriber.
  11. Ah, yes I understand.
  12. No, just couldn't see a link, didn't mean anything by it
  13. Anyone seen the guidance booklet mentioned on the website?

    All proper racing brakes, eg. Fontana, Oldani, grimeca etc had cast iron liners. My worry with cast iron would be that it rusts very quickly, would definitely need wheel removed after every wet trial.

    How did raga go?,
  16. smelling123 replied to blutaco's topic in Bultaco
    The difference being Mahle are cast, wiseco forged. The italkit pistons are cast and seem good..

    Original bore clearance is 1.7 thou I'm told (by the gents at inmotion) that's all the rebore shop should need to know. Sounds quite tight to me, I'm having mine done to that spec but need to warm up gently....
  18. This months classic mechanics shows dip n blast
  19. My Old man runs his at 40:1 has for a few years, runs great. Same for my Bultaco. You 1/4 pint per gallon won't be far from 40:1?
  20. What did I do to my Bultaco today? I tried very hard to break it at the acquaduct classics trial. Great trial but expert route bit beyond my modest talents - very slippy rocks Bike survived a few falls but puncture 2 sections before the end stopped play...
  21. Give some trials bike to holiday resort 'center parcs'. More fun than the crap quads or Segway and kids would get started young. Probably electric would be ideal
  22. One just sold on ebay for £1550 in very bad condition. Yours has the alloy tank (worth £400 alone). Id say around £2.5k.
