If you are in the UK you have a choice from NJB , Betor supplied by BVM and Falcon or Rock shocks . Budgets vary

In the UK the TY had a bit of resurgence in recent years. One for sale on ebay is a typical top level bike Yamaha TY 175 chase twinshock trials bike new build | eBay One of the best earlier bikes I saw at a trial was a Kato bike from Japan.

Can anyone here confirm the shock length and fork length for the BSA C15 Mills framed bikes. Thanks

Was about to ask in a new thread . I think 13.5" rear shocks , not sure about forks

Could be something to do with Nigel Birkett.

Keep scrolling the list , the white frames were later. The first mono was red framed. The Shirt parts are after market .

You need to talk to Gerry Minshall for the hubs. I don't have a number but I am sure someone may have email or number .

Just bought a Trifield rolling chassis , has short road shocks fitted... Anyone here know the ideal shock length eye to eye ? Thanks

A lot of work going into this, fair play. As mentioned before you may want to calm the motor down with a flywheel weight . The TS185 was still being produced a few years ago, it was a good motor as was the 250 .

What sub frame are you using ??/

Is there a diagram as a starting point to set up a PVL ignition on the D14 BSA Bantam ? Thanks in advance

Wax jackets cleaned , I had some done by them a few years ago . Can't fault them.

Depends . I am hoping for a short sharp shock but the hint of 6 months earlier is worrying. I don't think Boris acted early enough , should have been stricter , who knows ? I doubt we will see any sport this year be it pro or hobby , I think it will take us a few years to get over it if it drags out .

Dragging this thread back.. Have rules changed for a Mills in Scotland ??

Loosen the exhaust at the barrel , let it blow and see if it improves a bit. If so then blocked exhaust .

If you are considering a c15 then Charlies site is worth a look . http://www.bsaotter.com/

Or a Bantam ...

You can just unplug most of the loom and reg/ rec and just leave the ignition. You will need to wire in a kill switch unless you keep the Honda one.

Thanks Charlie, the strap I am talking about would be 120 / 150mm diameter
