steve_earle Posted September 13, 2015 Report Share Posted September 13, 2015 Just seen this for sale looks interesting? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Gas-Gas-HYBRID-TY-YAMAHA-ENGINE-TRIALS-BIKE-WITH-GASGAS-FRAME-PROFESSIONAL-CON-/221865682054?&_trksid=p2056016.l4276 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirdabalot Posted September 14, 2015 Report Share Posted September 14, 2015 The ad mentions Gas Gas aluminium frame? Engine has unusual clutch cover. Noticed the Beta silencer and mudguard. Could this combination of motorcycle parts be the best or worst of all worlds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazybond700 Posted September 14, 2015 Report Share Posted September 14, 2015 Frame is just the ''ordinary'' pro which is steel (I think) but looks like quite propper build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john b Posted September 14, 2015 Report Share Posted September 14, 2015 If I was after a modern bike I would buy it. Bargain at £2K when you consider what else is available ! Cheers John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asc Posted September 14, 2015 Report Share Posted September 14, 2015 seems the in thing to do ,seen graham tales on his 2rt honda ,both look really well put together ,don't think you could build the yamagas for 2k,projects can be money pits.

crazybond700 Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 I think that last bit is the problem. A nice project like valter ponzo has cost more than a brand new gasgas/sherco/beta etc does. and offcoarse you need to find the right parts. But they are nice projects. But like the honda of Valter I wouldnt want to ride it anymore, so I better just buy a (secondhand) bike! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastbelly Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 Damn, I would buy that in a flash. Got no money at the mo. Loved my Scorpa engine. My Gasser is way to leary! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
