January 2, 20179 yr Greetings from Savannah, GA. I just got a '76 TY250 and I look fwd to some vintage trials this year. Now I need to get her ready for action, so a few performance tweeks are in order. After I get my garage finished haha... cheers, -Dave
January 3, 20179 yr Welcome Dave! I have a friend in GA.who rides a Bultaco.I believe he will be setting up or helping set up for an AHRMA trials in Washington GA on 3/11/17. I would say the best things you could do to the TY are good tires and shocks.Also maybe a good flushing,fresh oil and new springs for the forks. Good luck and have fun!
January 4, 20179 yr Hi Dave ; Contact B&J racing in Dickson tenn. They know a wee bit about TY's and can hook you up with ITSA events ... Great folks and great rides !!!! Glenn
January 9, 20179 yr Author Hi guys, thanks for the advice. I plan on hitting the first event in March which is the one in Washington, GA I believe, and I already have some new bits on order from B&J. Cheers and happy trails!

As far as shocks go, is the idea to just get the right spring rate and have the plush damping? At the first meeting, I'll ask around about shocks, for all I know mine are suitable. I'll be ordering some IRC tires eventually. Freshening all the fluids, replacing original cables and drum pads and some taller bars. Otherwise, my little blue bike is in pretty good shape. First two stroke I've ever had that started on first kick every time, all I can figure is it must be out of tune haha.
