jordi Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 Could it be one of those Russian built cheap twin shocks that were imported about 10 or so years ago? Name of them escapes me at present. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterb Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 It's an RTX 212 or 125, Russian motor in an English frame from the late 1990's, not such a good bike I understand. Look at the posting TRX212, in this forum section, 8 under this one. Bye, PeterB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillary Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 I went all the way over to the Hull area many years ago to test one for TMX - what a waste of a journey, about as competitive as a Aspes Yak, the world's worst ever production trials bike.

spud Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 (edited) I returned to trials after a 25 break and my bike back then was a air cooled TY250. On my return in 2000 (foot and mouth year) i tried a 90's RTX and the conclusion was the TY was the better bike. By an off chance i popped over to my parents house and found the TY was still in their garage even after i was told the garage had been cleared. So i rode the TY in club trials for about 6 months and then sold for a 315 mont, which if i were you would be the bike you may want to look at as an old 315 mont is still a very good bike and cheap. My thoughts on the RTX are echo'd by Hillary they are poo. Edited December 30, 2007 by spud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
