March 26, 201214 yr Author One for sale here: http://www.trialsire...hp?topic=2054.0 Thats a very good price for that bike. (If the bike is complete, not too bad and a real 198B...) Edited March 26, 201214 yr by Greeves
April 9, 201214 yr http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bultaco-198b-250cc-Vazquez-Trials-Bike-/260998161159?pt=UK_Motorcycles&hash=item3cc4b3e307 Here is one well worth the money if it is what it says it is. (looks like it to me)
April 9, 201214 yr Author http://www.ebay.co.u...=item3cc4b3e307 Here is one well worth the money if it is what it says it is. (looks like it to me) I know that bike. It worths that money, it is a 198B fully restored and prepared for competition and equiped with all the best parts available.
January 23, 201511 yr My dad has 3 of these bikes that you all speak of, along with a load of other Spanish trials bikes ?
January 24, 201511 yr I think you will find that there were (approx) 272 198Bs exported to the UK, all five speed and all stamped on both the engine and the frame, the paint scheme being the Finish flag colours to celebrate Vesterinen's World Championships. If you look at the 'Finished my 198B at last' post, you will see an example and there are many others kicking about UK. Incidentally, the one shown in my last post is the one Dave Renham was selling last April, as shown below when I got it. The easy way to identify it is by the rear frame loop, the rear swinging arm and the sidestand. Only the white framed 199B had the six speed box.
January 24, 201511 yr big_e, Hope you can show us what it looks like now. A good spot would be on thread Tell Us About The History of your Bully I am sure we would all enjoy the story. PS Silly me, nice bike. Larry Edited January 24, 201511 yr by lbhbul
January 24, 201511 yr Here's mine, used regularly in twinshock trials in UK for the last 4 years. Unrestored but upgraded the suspension. https://www.flickr.com/photos/76022002@N08/7035234511/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/76022002@N08/6889224476/ Great bike, 5 speed, seems to have some `left overs` used on it - steel brake arms instead of alloy etc.
January 24, 201511 yr Bondy, Very nice machine, now you need to get it dirty. Smelling, Looking good, you take good care. Larry

January 25, 201511 yr In the eighties quite some time after Bultaco ceased production there was a new 198B in Sandiford's Bury showroom. I remember it vividly each time I went in it seemed to say BUY ME now I wish I had! Edited January 27, 201511 yr by trialsrfun
January 25, 201511 yr Never even touched the engine hewson! She's ready for a cosmetic rebuild some time soon but no rush
