  1. Firstly…. Well done for considering with an open mind. After a couple of try’s I think I have an idea garage for my fun (and lack of talent). I have an old bike for the classic easy trials and a modern 250 Beta for the easy route in a modern trial. I did attempt a twin shock on the easy route of a modern trial but I am afraid I lacked the skill to ‘keep on it’!! My beta (as a gas gas would be) is easy to ride and light enough to pick up. It’s the smiles I have gone for and ease of maintenance. good luck and let us know what you get.
  2. Yep HFS in the gripper forks. I picked the middle set up (Expert). I am no means an expert but the change was really noticeable with more feeling and control. One thing that is so more obvious now that I am ‘getting’ on in years is fitness. I think that no matter how good the bike is, if not fit (which I could do with improving) control is sometimes lacking
  3. Engine ???? I also bought a trials Cub.
  4. 2020 was a ‘nothing year’ and most people would like to not remember it. I found that I actually spent more money than I thought I could......... pictures to prove. Follow my gripper story #ossa_gripper on Instagram what did you spend ...
  5. Hi ... just to resurrect this topic. I am looking at machining down a spare cush drive flyweight to allow me to simply remove the existing weight and fit the machined down weight without any further mods... Will this work. Also puzzled on a clutch problem... Is the clutch more prone to slip with lighter oil than heavier oil ??
  6. Hi do you have a casing protector fitted above the chain?
  7. Cheers. Thanks for the comments. I am busting a gut to get it dirty....... I have some MAR handle bar mounts to try out also.
  8. Finished the rebuild. Powder coated frame after foot peg lowering, new HFS fork internals, new rear shocks, CRIB fork brace and mudguard bridge, Barnetts clutch plates and OKO card jetted to suit the gripper.
  9. Side panels made .......... orders can be taken yellow or orange. ?
  10. Just now the a stage of rebuild.... slowly. Gonna try black mudguards for a while but it’ll prob go back to orange. I am also going to try to ‘make’ a pair of side panels out of Acrylic..... follow on instagram
  11. Have the gripper stripped down now for a few mods .. Just back from Powdercoaters (done by Rage Powdercoating at Thirsk) Follow the rebuild Instagram ossa_gripper_
  12. My OSSA TR80 250 'Gripper' Picture was just pre Lockdown at a trial held by Darlington and District Motor Club. It was a hard trial (for me.... just turned 62!!!) Finished three behind Vesty ... But also last .LOL
