Well, As Promised!
As an aside...Mark, I don't know if you've heard of this guy Cliff Robertson RIP I don't recall him for his acting ability but I do remember him for his love of aviation, particularly his appreciation of the true historical/emotional value of the Spitfire and the Mosquito. He was appalled at the rate that Spitfires and Mossies were being scrapped just after the war so he bought his own MkIX Spit for posterity MK923 (he wasn't allowed a Mosquito). He blew his top whilst filming 633 Squadron when he realised they were going to burn a fully airworthy Mossie for a stunt...he said he watched the flames for the 3 hours it took to destroy the main (wooden) spar. He was also in the air above the Twin Towers at the time of 9/11 and was told in 'no uncertain terms' to land immediately. If you get time, do a little reading on,t internet about him, it sounds like he had a great attitude.I recommend reading a book about his own personal Spitfire custodian Jerry Billing aswell..A Knight among Knaves (?) Wayne Edit: oops the book's exact title is in the link

..a small electric motor,perhaps?- Some interesting pics
Crikey Cope, you're gonna need to get out the Michael Jackson dust mask and your asbestos underpants at that rate.- Bargain boots anyone?
Good call...but what size are your plates?- Albert Cabistany Slow motion trials
Yup,It's been posted up before but always worth a look....the way it de-constructs how he's working the bike...fab !- Trials in Cyprus
I'm sure I had Raki on the Sunni? side of Cyprus Bloody karasakal . You couldn't learn owt from me..riding or drinkin'. We once chartered a boat on the Greek Cypriot side,got p|55ed then tried to return to the Turkish side Should have guessed when the beach was covered with barbed-wire and steel girders (think; Saving Private Ryan)- Trials in Cyprus
I seem to remember (just !) that it was the Raki that you had to watch for ...you could run your bike on that stuff- Ben Hemingway Hurt at World Round
Being admin seems to bypass the profanity filter?- Yamaha TY250 Pinkey Riding
Man you must have done some miles to get there...where is the Gasser you're on about?- scorpa what year?
Scorpadave, I can see your confusion..both Godzilla and Pete-Scorpa3 claim to have had an 05 but,have different bash plates? I see that the year on year changes to the marque were very subtle indeed (front forks/clutch actuation/brake disks/bash plate etc.)...is there a 'best of breed' that the Scorpa fan club would recommend? I ask this after reading Godzilla's TCgarage comments Pete-Scorpa3 posted as I was typing...Ta !- scorpa what year?
Photos may help:- 2005? ..and.. 2007? but you can see the flat bottomed bash plate- Trials in Cyprus
Confirmed... link I see cyprus active no longer mention how to hire trials bikes. Ahh..Cyprus, where you can snow board in the morning then surf board in the afternoon- Trials in Cyprus
There was a guy doing trials out there (North side,Turkish), he had a bunch of Scorpas for hire but I don't know if he's still in business?- Its taken a while!
Is it in your garage yet?- Float bowl
Go easy on the 'hitting' it's only magnesium alloy(?) If the carb's on the bench just grip the bowl with some emery paper in your hand and pull/wiggle. The chances are that (once the brass nut is off) the bowl is just hung-up on the o-rings.- Fuji and MR HRC playing on their 4RT's
Tasty looking bikes..as for Fuji,he rides better when his hair is longer (Samson syndrome)- Bou 'unplugged'
- Its taken a while!
Oooh..What colour?...the bics. - Ossa TR 280i hard to start
