Been there done that !!! Forgot where I parked the van last week.......

The days when we did not have to lock our cars or house .

Thanks very much for that, Cheers.

Yes just found it , Tony made a great job of that cover wonder what he used to finish the job with ( Paint ??)

Hi Tony , That looks fab but please what is jb weld ??? I got the plate from ty trials just got to fit it .

Nice tidy job Tony thanks.

Spen are you going to Malory tomz ?

Hi Spen , Tell me do you have to put a blanking plate on where it came out of ? Oh by the way I got a quote for insurance 3 party only they want £278.00 per annum this must be with my age and not rode a bike in 40 years

Hello , Would it be detrimental to remove the pump compleatly ? Thanks.

The AA man on his BSA M21 side valve combo , now there was a sight saluting to his hearts Content if he saw you had a Badge on your motor .. (Good Pay to in them days) I should know I worked for em and yes I rode the combo !!!? ......

Hi Buddy, NoNo No , I hate that one have tried every thing believe me But the nearest is Tesco's cheapest ( Everyday Value Chocolate Spread) Not quite as dark as Frys used to be but not far off and less Than £1.00. Yum yum

Well Spen after a lot of consideration me decided you can use that gleaming Scottish Greeves in trials after all, let's face it they were made to use not just to look at, Enjoy it, Me very jealous

When we need not Lock our Front Door or Car !!! Keep em coming

Useful link feet up , thanks,

Thanks Guys, whatever I take off I will keep so when my days are gone whoever gets it will be able to replenish with the bits I took off. I will put up pics before I start and completed job when finished , I do not intend using it in trials but will put her on the road for me to go for a spin. One thing I will not be putting back is the oil tank. Off subject Spen , have a peeps at anything goes thread you must have something to add??? (only one thing per day )

Come on all let's see what you miss anything goes. I'll start it off. ( ps, only one thing per day ) Orange Boxes!!!!!!

Well Spen if I want to get the bike back to its original state they will have to go . Bad day at the office today.

Hi all,Could someone please explain the advantages of Gas Shocks as opposed to the original factory units fitted to a Ty 250 1976. I brought this as a project to while away my time and restore it as it is identical bike I brought back in 1976. My knowledge is very limited as you can see. Thanks.

Never a truer word Spen , since I started on this journey it's amazing what I have learnt and how I have found lost Palls for over 40 years . When you get to my age you value people like I have met and come in contact with, for years thought I was on the scrap heap but this motorbike interest has given me a new lease And am itching for April and a go at the first trial in years even if I only do a few sections , I see my self doing quite a bit of Observing especially around the Peak District and for the Dales club so club Sec's shout ahead we know you desperate for observers . And yes Spen all I want now is a Greeves Scottish pre 65. Good luck. And thanks to other members who have helped me with my probes with the bikes .

Oni ! I get leaded 4star at rothley nr Leicester Cheers

Hi , it was destroying the plastic tank on my ty175 so I drained it out recently cleansed out tank and used Causewells re liner, stripped and cleaned carb new fuel pipe and tap filters and put in 4star leaded, what a difference it has made. O/K tiss more than double the cost of unleaded but I won't be using a lot of this 4 star leaded , also I am now going to do the same on my other bike, I did here that plans were ahead to increase ethanol in petrol, Cheers .

Omg, hope the duchess do not think I got her new tooth brushes, Thanks for your help.
