South Liverpool Motor Club Trial 1977

We had a great photographer come along to most the events he even managed to get a few shots of me with both feet on the pegs.

Here is the photo i hope i have it right this time.

It would be great to see some of your photos from the 70s

I always loved mud still do, that ok were are we going now feeling endless fun

Here is one more show me your favorite shots this is a one of the few feet up shots of me Bultaco power .......

Great pictures of a fantastic era of trials, keep posting them.

I did my best to make a photo of a old polaroid it was starting to change colour the small digital cameras are good at this

Escaping for a hill side bog in the time trial South liverpool Motor Club about 1978, got me wellies on and me bike has the sammy miller bath tub bashplate ....

nice photos i was only 9 years old then still remeber tho the good old days wish they was back.

Well here is one of a nice clean Ulf Karlsson replica ready for the next trial, was a nice bike but liked the bultaco much more. i look much older now

its a photo of an old photo just put it by a widow ( nice soft light north light ) and made some copy photos and picked the best

You can just about make out the Sandiford sticker on the tank

It looks like the rear shockers have been moved forward at the top too...again though a good bike, a lot of good riders got results on the 247 Monts.

The UKR was a good looking bike and didn't have the hideous sized rear sprocket like the earlier ones, also the clutch arm was in a better place instead of clogged up with ***** under the engine.

Why was it called the Ulf Karlsson Replica though?

I thought he achieved his best results on the 349 much later on?

Cheers Blackie.

Aye, but it might have been difficult for them to know that when they were producing the 250 UKR those years before, when he was merely a top runner and Swedish Champion.?

Hi Blackie

It came from Sandifords with the rear shocks set like that and a mikuni carb on it, after i had been riding it for a bit

we set it up with the standard Amal carb and i liked it much more, but missed my Bultaco so sold it and got a new bultaco my first new bike .......

Did the UKR have the Mk1 1/2 Amal with the choke/air lever on it or the Mk1 627?
