    Just bit more interested in Royal Enfield trials these days. I would like know more about Royal Enfield Bullet HNP 331

    ridden by Johnny Brittain in 1957 in SSDT. Interested to know what engine/frame etc modification were done to this bike. any more picture will be nice 

     

    Found very rare interesting video able to locate Royal Enfield Trials HNP 332 ?. at 33:57 on the trailer.

    Good to know how was trials riding in 1950s .. bit diffcult & driving in very high waters etc ,admire the history of british trials.

  2. hi mettise,if you are anywhere hear norfolk call me and i will teach you how to build your own wheels, plus if you need  use of a machine shop or welding shop,, with tuition if needed just ask ,i have just retired after 50 years of building competition bikes, so i think it would be good if i can help out people with any problems when building off road bikes ,its time i put something back into the sport that has given me many years enjoyment , this also applies to any forum readers ,the worst way out it will cost the price of the bits which i can source at trade prices plus a beer for me , will.    

    Any chance to visit Ireland ...  unlimited supply of beer for sure  :guinness:  , you can make some youtube channel or blog , if you would like.. many beginner like me can learning from your experience.  Thanks for offering help ...

  3. Hi Guys 

     

    Talking about cost got this one for free from friends shed this morning. now i will look for "aawil" approach to find lightweight early hub or Charlie's one , 

     

    @Charlie

    can you please explain , how you use Jialing JH125L wheel and this wheel can used in the same way on c15.

  4. @aawil 

    I like you ideas .. I am doing my first trials project ( c15 ). and successfully started my midlife crisis.

    I have a question , if someone is using bantam/tiger cub hub (40 spokes holes) with Jap rim .( 36  spoke holes )

    so you will leave 4 spokes holes empty on hub or you will re-arrange spoke hole distance on hub to make them 36 ..? if you can share some pictures that will be easy to understand.

     

    Thanks and Regards

     

     I apologize i didn't read the the message well and didnt know early hub e.g bantam d1 hub came with 36 spokes. holes , still interested to see the brake arrangement using d1 hub or early hub.  :wall:

    I was googling around found the below ebay item .. 

    111578488882 ,( BSA Triumph 57-1279 40-3022 75-3121 C15 T20 Kickstart Quadrant NOS )

  8. Hi guys

     

    I started to build Pre-65 trails bike. when started to buy things, soon realize it costly stuff and i cannot continue , now trying to build C15 green leaner :(

    cost is increasing very fast. i believe may be after 20-25 years. these bikes will be for elite only. Sorry no offence , its just my opinion

     

    @Charlie

    I like Broony and your Mini Super Otter. :)

  9. Hi Guys 

     

    Finally i got OSSA Mar forks for my BSA C15 project. 

    I have couple of questions,

     

    > There is oil leak from screw on fork leg. I tried to tighten it , but its thread is gone , how to fix it ?

     

    > What is easiest way to hook OSSA forks to C15 ? . Should I use C15 ball bearing race to OSSA yokes.

    or should i use C15 yokes ? and OSSA forks legs . I prefer to use OSSA yokes if possible , they seem more suitable to me.

     

    I am attaching pictures .. please advise. 

     

    Thanks in advance

     

    Cheers

  11. Thanks for reply. 

     

    I will use Ossa forks/TY wheel as suggested.

    I want to use bike on/off road. if i need bike to be Road legal.

    should i need front/back/speedometer to be working ??

    I thinking of using default 6V ignition system on the bike or should i convert it to 12V ?

    how much teeth should gearbox sprockets required. ?

    its seems diffcult to find 40 hole RIM for T20/bantam Hub , is it possible to use 36 hole Japanese RIM  ? 

     

    Your advise bring my project back on track. 

     

    Appreciate your help :-)

     

    Regards
