[What Kinda Helmet Lid Do You Wear? Any Good Recommendation?]

I was looking at the TRR but went for the Jitsie ht2 flow, similar spec.

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 !

Great Red Rose trial at weekend. Bulto likes the rocks

[Bantam Bogging]

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

So it runs when it's rich (I.e. With choke on) - agree with cleanorbust sounds like an air leak..

[Works Bsa Tigress Engined Bike.]

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!

Thanks Derek, yes I'm a subscriber.

[Ssdt Pre65 Eligibility Guidance]

Ah, yes I understand.

[Ssdt Pre65 Eligibility Guidance]

Oh no here we go again....

No, just couldn't see a link, didn't mean anything by it

[Ssdt Pre65 Eligibility Guidance]

Anyone seen the guidance booklet mentioned on the website?

[Brake Lining]

I have used steel on all of mine as opposed to cast iron, the reason being is that cast iron has basically graphite in the microstructure which makes the surface greasy to touch and aids in lubrication ie liners and piston rings, not really what you want for a brake surface.

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.

[Trs Bike Unveiled]

How did raga go?,

[199A Rebore]

The difference being Mahle are cast, wiseco forged. The italkit pistons are cast and seem good..

[199A Rebore]

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....

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?

[What Did You Do To Your Bultaco Today?]

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...

[What Did You Do To Your Bultaco Today?]

Lovely pursang!

[How To Get Our Sport To Grow]

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

[Bultaco 199B]

One just sold on ebay for £1550 in very bad condition. Yours has the alloy tank (worth £400 alone). Id say around £2.5k.
