    Ty 250 Z Spares

    Anyone have any idea where I could get a TYz rear mudguard? or has anyone got a 2nd hand one they no longer require? condition not important cheers Ant
  3. Nice job Vaughan - well done When is it making it's debut and I will come along to watch? Cheers Ant
  4. Top Link - well done I have sent mine off but unfortunatley I have a Labour MP and he will undoubtedly do as His Tonyness wishes but we must try. Too busy hugging Foxes
  5. Need a TYz rear guard as mine is cracked Ant idea who stocks them and the cost? Cheers Ant
  6. E-bay scary place got a Garage full of stuff Bought a bike on Saturday and it came with a trailer so I now have 4 Trials Bikes a 3 bike trailer and a 2 bike trailer Wife thinks I am losing the plot but I can't miss up on a bargain. I used to transport on a flat, garden type trailer but could never get the bike to stay put on a flat bed. Bike trailer has saved me loads of grief

    Yamaha Ty 250 Z

    I have just bought one of these fine machines and was wondering if the good Folk on this Forum would have any info to help in keeping it in Trialable condition? Specifically parts availability and manuals / handbooks (Photocopies or purchase) would be apreciated. Any advice on setting up and fuel oil mix ratio - basically anything! Don,t seem as common as the aircooled TY but looks a very well built bit of kit Looking to start competing this Spring (once the mud is out the way) in the North East Thanks in advance

    Tyz V's Scorpa

    Interesting thread this as I have just bought a 94 TYz on Saturday 24th Feb. I have been to watch a couple of Trials and Joined Consett Trials Club yesterday and intend to take the plunge this Spring. I also have an Aprilia Climber and the TYz is a lot more forgiving and looks a lot easier for the middle aged fat novice! Look out for us on North East Club Trials and pop ofer for a Chat.
  9. As an absolute novice I have found this Forum to be very helpfull and any advice requested has been given with good grace and patience. This has also been the case on the Trials I have been to watch. I have been involved with Special Stage Rallying for over 20 years and am looking to get my Son aged 6 into motorsport and see Trials as the perfect start. This Forum is spot on as it is and I would hate to see it degenerate into the slanging match that other Forums I use seem to have done. (Rallying is a Bitchy Sport) A Novice Thread would be an interesting thought as it may give us newbies an avenue to ask the questions that most of you good folk take for granted and I for one have held back from replying to a couple of interesting chats due to inexperiance. Keep up the good work

    Berlingo

    Aprilia Climber fits in a Berlingo Multispace with the rear seats folded so a Berlingo Van would be no problem. Berlingo,s generally are cheap and cherfull good MPG and handle well but they are budget vehicles and finish and interiors are basic. Had mine since 2001 with minor niggles but it has had a beating to be honest but I would have another.
  12. Just had a look at your web page and I am impressed - keep up the good work. I am local to you and will look out for the finished bike. Ant
  13. I am based near to the Metrocentre in Gateshead about 3 miles South of Newcastle. What is the nearest town to the places you have mentioned as I may have a trip down. The place in Durham is Warden Law Kart Track but it is usually very busy just after christmas with mini motos etc. I will make enquiries with the Consett Club and see what is available locally. Thanks for the help.
  14. Well I have bought an Aprilia 280 Climber and it seems a fit beast! wasn,t a fortune either! Very powerfull and in quite good nick but it looks to have stood for some time and just requires using and bedding everything in. I am going to enter my local Club, I think it,s Consett Trials Club and do a couple of Training Days Anywhere to practice in the North East?
  15. Thanks for the replies I have ridden a TY mono and it seemed very forgiving compared to the Bike I had at the time but as that was an Italjet T350 the comparison may have been a bit unfair. The Beta looks a nice bike and after doing a bit of research I think I will pass on the Mont 314 & the Aprilia Climber as they seem to have a bit of a negative vibe about them elswhere on the Forum. Gas Gas & Beta seem the more common bike at Trials I have watched recently and I expect a few to be available after Christmas so I will widen my search. Cheers Ant PS - anyone any views on going the Twinshock route?
