  1. I recently changed the seals on txt pro but the od of the seals supplied are undersize. They seemed to fit ok The od should have been 52.2mm but the ones supplied are 52.0mm, they don’t seem to be leaking but I’ve not done a trial yet! Anyone else had this issue, I don’t fancy wasting the oil to change them
  2. I've done Zinc plating on nuts bolts and brackets at home, with good success. but its only tiny parts I do Also you need to be aware of hydrogen embrittlement.
  3. Does it need the bigend replacing or just main bearings?
  4. thats a nice looking bike, I’d be happy to swap it for my old gasgas if you want a trials bike
  5. It would be a brave man to try on my sweaty helmet!? Many years ago the wife kept it clean and shiny, but she’s lost interest now! ?
  6. If you put a 19" trials tyre on a bantam you would need to extend the swing-arm, and that's all that's needed to fit a proper trials tyre
  7. But in fairness proper gb oil is the best option Using whatever you are happy with is a personal choice. I like the clutch action from ATF, but it’s not for everyone!
  8. I've used ATF if my gasgas for over 11 years, never had a single problem and it’s still on its original main bearings Don’t autoboxes have bearings, and how much oil do most 2T mains (and big-ends) get with a weak premix! Whenever i hear someone say "Literally heard the consequences" I laugh
  9. Automatic Transmission, (Gearbox with wet clutches). whats the problem, and its in some user manuals
  10. I use ATF, seems to work well
  11. No, but It had a rather large Lucas lead acid battery? I'm sure there could be a modern Pre65 version?
  12. BSA did build an electric trials bike, there's a picture of it with Jeff Smith riding (See: Don Morley’s BSA singles book)
  13. That’s a bit Harsh, I guess what B40rt is saying they are probably knackered. Most people just replace with new!
  14. They are good shocks, no reason to change (unless you want to give them too me ?)
  15. I had the same problem a few years ago, I changed from Champion to NGK and the problem vanished. (bike was running a motaplat ignition) I was reluctant to change as I got the Champion plugs for free from work! it was only one bike that had the issue with the champion plugs, all my other bikes ran fine on them
  16. Plus you could sell your old parts for around £150 (if they are in good condition)
  17. Make a note on the sheet next to the riders number, then inform the C-of-C or anyone running the trial!
  18. All pro's are hard to find neutral Try using your hand, it makes it easier
  19. It weighs exactly 50kgs, so it gives me 150kgs. Just enough for a beamish ? Just needs a few more jobs to finish, and source a spare wheel!
  20. I'm 99% sure its an old gracecourt skivvy chassis (Gross 200kg), but the chassis plate has long gone!
  21. I’ve just tied up an old bike trailer, and have replaced lights, tyres, some welding and a fresh paint job. But it has no chassis plate, I’m guessing it’s a homebuilt or modified small trailer Whats the law on not having a chassis plate on an old trailer?
  22. I use tubeless on my beamish without any problems
  23. If you have taken the rotor off it will need timing correctly, unless you fancy replacing a holed piston
