Hello all,
I'd like to build a pre-unit trials bike and am looking for any help and info on what would be the best way to go in regards to what make and parts to start hunting down. I'd prefer something either Ariel or AJS based but could consider others such as Triumph twin or Norton.
So any advice on suitable engines, frames, etc. that are sometimes available (for not stupid money) would be greatly appreciated. I am not on a budget as such but neither would I want to pay a kings ransom for every part and end up with a bike that wasn't worth half of the build cost. I may as well just buy a nice bike to start with, which I would do but they don't seem to come up for sale very often, hence the thoughts turning to building one.
I have been riding classic scrambles for nearly 50 years but it's starting to hurt when I fall off now so even though I'm sure I'll still fall off in a trial at least I wont be going as fast.
Thanks, Victor.
