(looks like it to me) I know that bike. It worths that money, it is a 198B fully restored and prepared for competition and equiped with all the best parts available.

davestan Posted January 23, 2015 Report Share Posted January 23, 2015 My dad has 3 of these bikes that you all speak of, along with a load of other Spanish trials bikes ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big_e Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 I think you will find that there were (approx) 272 198Bs exported to the UK, all five speed and all stamped on both the engine and the frame, the paint scheme being the Finish flag colours to celebrate Vesterinen's World Championships. If you look at the 'Finished my 198B at last' post, you will see an example and there are many others kicking about UK. Incidentally, the one shown in my last post is the one Dave Renham was selling last April, as shown below when I got it. The easy way to identify it is by the rear frame loop, the rear swinging arm and the sidestand. Only the white framed 199B had the six speed box. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lbhbul Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) big_e, Hope you can show us what it looks like now. A good spot would be on thread Tell Us About The History of your Bully I am sure we would all enjoy the story. PS Silly me, nice bike.

smelling123 Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 Here's mine, used regularly in twinshock trials in UK for the last 4 years. Unrestored but upgraded the suspension. https://www.flickr.com/photos/76022002@N08/7035234511/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/76022002@N08/6889224476/ Great bike, 5 speed, seems to have some `left overs` used on it - steel brake arms instead of alloy etc. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trialsrfun Posted January 25, 2015 Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 (edited) In the eighties quite some time after Bultaco ceased production there was a new 198B in Sandiford's Bury showroom. I remember it vividly each time I went in it seemed to say BUY ME now I wish I had! Edited January 27, 2015 by trialsrfun 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
