bultokid Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Hello to all - Looking to get a Sherpa to do some AHRMA trials. Any real differences between them besides cradle, swingarm ? Always wanted the blue 199a but seems there are couple nice 199's floating around and I'm a spode newbie on a trials bike. Thanks to all for your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motovintage Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 Hello to all - Looking to get a Sherpa to do some AHRMA trials. Any real differences between them besides cradle, swingarm ? Always wanted the blue 199a but seems there are couple nice 199's floating around and I'm a spode newbie on a trials bike. Thanks to all for your help the frame & swingarm are the main difference, I read on another post that the internal gearing is different, I thought the frame geometry was differnt on the a & b but I am not sure of that. 199a & b seem harder to come by these days, where are you in Texas? I am abought 1/2 way between Austin & Houston Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bultokid Posted March 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 I am in Houston. Rode my first trials @ Rio AHRMA event and had a blast...man it's MUCH harder than anyone that has never tried it could EVER imagine. So just bought a nice 199 yesterday.

motovintage Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 cool I rode that event also, Rio is a good place to ride, the Houston trials bunch are good folks, post up some pics of the 199, I am also building a Bultaco now, may be a while before it's ready due to limited funds, hope to have it ready by next year's state series Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bultokid Posted March 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 I was the fish out of water on the TY350. Here's the Bul I bought. Hope to see you at Rio again-----Rhett http://www.pbase.com/jetdoctor/bultaco_sherpa_t_m199&page=all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
