Did anyone get a photo of the Bantam trials bike which was shown on Saturday? It had a large diameter frame top tube with the engine suspended from it attached by the cylinder head.
There was just so much of interest, it is only now a few days later that you remember some of the things on display.
Hi, nice someone noticed this Bantam. My dad built this when worked at BSA. Told me a million stories of building it and all the engine work. Also about the trials he did. I was lucky to ride it in trials as a schoolboy. Fair do's, the chap who has it now cleaned it up nicely.
Hi foley92, you anywhere near great barr? Do you know where to ride? We go out most weekends, could show you a few places,. Have a look in places to ride forum. Tom
Have you spoken to the girl in accounts at Gas Gas uk? She helped road registered my txt 2 weeks ago. She confirmed import and dating and sent a copy to DVLA and 1 to me. I sent form, dating letter, insurance,personal identity (photo copy of passport and licence) and money for registration and tax. Came back a week later tax disc, next day log book. I was surprised at speed. She's clued up on all the goings on involved.
hi Rich, GasGas uk do a great lightweight number plate and bracket around £10. they'll post it to you. Just have to stick your reg number on. Local car shop had some letters and numbers. gas gas 01298 766813. Hope that helps
I would recommend IOM TT to anybody, tv coverage does some justice but its even more amazing when your there!!! TT closer to the edge...sidecar number 3 clipping railings at Bradden Bridge, passenger coming off....have to put my hands up to that one!
