do i detect a bit of frustration creeping in dave ? the world is full of two types of people, those who do and those who talk. no point in wasting your breath on the latter !!!

i think he means sprocket ratios

they look a funny colour already !!!

castrol TTS at 50:1

on the way to a trial my dave cooper rack broke,the square tube next to the weld has fractured,and has dumped the bike on the road. you can guess at the result !!! has any one else had this happen? is there a better quality rack on the market ? CHECK YOUR RACK NOW !!!!!!!

hi kirby,you need a slow one so you don`t end up in the trees upside down!!!!

there are some things that should NEVER be forgotten.

i think it was an amal concentric mk 2, i think you can still get them new. try surrey cycles.

are there any bike trial clubs in the midlands ? we live near leicester,i want to get my son involved. what age is good to start bike trials ?

hi scotty,you need to talk to fred in new zealand,he is very helpfuland has all the bits http://kawasakikt.tripod.com/FREDKT.html

me and the majesty will be up for some of that !!!

got to stand and look at it a bit before i get it dirty.might be out at the next peak classic.

many thanks swoosh,take a look at going green in twinshocks

just finished my latest project -

not being a computer nerd i am unable to post pics,can anyone give me a clue? please keep it simple !!

hi paul,get the standard forks re-chromed,give me a call,i know a good place for the job. find a pair of norton or triumph twin inner valve springs use these as spacers,you may have to shorten them depends how buggered your springs are. with the forks fully compressed and springs removed,fill to 5 - 6 inches from top with 15 or 20w fork oil if you experiment you can get them very good

thanks woody,see you there!

my entry arrived this morning but there is no start address !!!! any one know where the start is ?

best looking - rockshocks,best working - falcon. a bit of personal preference many will probably disagree.

martin is spot on as usual,my 280 has the extended arm and is as light as my majesty clutch. correct adjustment is vital to avoid drag or slip.

for that price i would want vesty`s ability thrown in !!!!

sorry mate - i have to correct you.early grippers had an alloy tank with separate plastic side panels. a friend of mine had a new one like this.don`t know when they changed to one piece tank seat.

I remember my TL well,possibly the worst trials bike ever built - unless you know different !!!!

fantastic twinshock,they are very easy to ride,and most bits are easy to get.expect to pay upto

j.k hirst are very good for yam twinshocks also.
