  1. Yep a 18inch rear wheel, just after anything that will fit or can be modified. Thanks
  2. Thanks Would a 3ta arm do if its modified they are a lot cheaper than an RE one
  3. Can anyone help, building a Trifield but not sure what swinging arm to use. The frame is 1958 but the existing swinging arm will only allow a 17inch rear wheel. Any ideas! And does anyone have one. Thanks JOJOTUT
  4. Ok thanks lads I will give them a ring.
  5. Hi, East Yorkshire near the Humber Bridge. Thanks
  6. Hi just pulled out a 199a I bought back in the day and found that the previous owner tried to put a new main bearing in the crankcase with a 10lb hammer wearing a blindfold! I don't think he even heated up the casing! The bearing housing has a crack all the way through. I took this to a local engineering firm and held their hands up and said stopped doing that stuff years ago. Anyone out there in trails land that know anyone I can trust and at a reasonable price. Thanks
  7. I have a Stormer front break that I am in the process of using AND a Stormer rear break that I want to use.
  8. Ok thanks for that, do you think I can use a Stormer rear break then!
  9. Hi putting a pre 65 bike together and have an AJS Stormer alloy wheel and hub, can this be used! I have seen a few bikes with what looks like this setup or is there something else similar. Or what's the best setup to use, can't afford new alloy one's yet.
  10. Hi everyone, a little help please. Over the last year or so I have been putting together a Trifeild! Before I start building can anyone help with the forks. Not sure what I need, ie length which ones I can use for pre 65 trails. Can I get new yokes made in alumimium! I was looking at 35 mm forks or can I not use these. Just did not want to finish this and get the bike rejected my rule. Again info on the rear shocks would be great When I start building I will start to post build. Has anyone done one of these! All the best
  11. Thanks for the web addresses the one posted by mudyman did not open but the other one did. Talked(via email) to a guy who sells original stuff for theses bikes in Spain and he says that there is a book for the TR80 model and wanted over $100 for it?? Think I will make do with the company’s printer. All the very best to everyone
  12. Thanks for that Woody, sorry did not mean to take over this posting mudyman, anyone know know how to date the 350 Gripper and is there a site I can get a Clymer from. My head is starting to clear a bit now and the smile is coming back. Thanks to everyone
  13. Hi do you have an engine strip down for one of these? I have looked all over the place, people are saying that there is not one. I can get an exploded view but by the time you try and make it bigger you cannot make anything out. Its a bit a problem when you buy a bike when you have had a drink and the guy says "Its all there mate! all you need to do is put it back together?" You take the bike home the engine looks like your 6 year old has given up on it, your wife looks at you and with that I told you so smile and you reach for the cans again. O why do we do it. Sorry about that, someone help

    350 Gripper

    Hi do you have a workshop manual on this bike, Is it a TR80? I have one of these and need information on it as I will be undertaking a full rebuild. Thanks
  15. Sorry Lads its manual
  16. You know whatits like, you are part way through a restoration when you get chance of another bike! I just got hold of one of these and need help in finding a manua and where to get parts from. Can anyone help. Thanks
  17. Hi trials riding sorry
  18. Hi everyone can you advise what are decent trail boots as my steel toe capped wellies have more holes that a Swiss cheese! Just starting back after 20 years off and the amount of boots out there is frightening! I will be using these for local club trails and a lot of practice; do you only get what you pay for? Is it better taking my hard earned to a show? Thanks
  19. Hi everyone, happy new year! I have just taken the cylinder head off my 325 and it has a bit of side scoring to the piston, the bore looks ok. Would it be better to just put new rings on it or rebore it? If it had had a rebore previous would there be any markings on the piston? as there is nothing showing? Inside the piston it just says "S made in japan" and "ART" and what looks like a Y with a line over it (I thought this was a + at first) under that there is a number 1. The engine ran well with a bit of smoke before I took it apart. If it needs a rebore what pistons are avaiable. Thanks
  20. Thnaks for that but mine are the square section ones and this one is round. JOJOTUT
  21. Hi thanks for that, I am just wanting one fork leg (right) dont need the pair as mine is damaged ! anyone out there got one spare? Thanks for all your help.
  22. Hi are there any other fork bottoms that are the same as a 348? I have a damaged right fork leg near the bolt hole and its beyond repair if anyone could help. Just trying to get the thing back up running as the wet weather is calling and need to be out there!
