laird387 Posted July 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 Hi, Now what have we here - could be a Honda and the registration suggests 1973 - but that doesn't 'feel' right. Barry Robinson photographed it and he was certainly busy in 1973 - so really, we have to say 'Help' can anyone recognise the rider and give any details about the location and date. Otherwise - enjoy.

cleanorbust Posted July 27, 2014 Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 I think that is one of the Jefferies Hondas, as derived from the XL250 trail bike by Peter Gaunt. The M registration would place it as 1973/4 which would be correct for the bike which I recall first appeared at the 1974 Scottish in the hands of Gaunt and Nick Jefferies, who led the trial at one point. Sorry can't help with the rider in the picture but could well be a Yorkshire trial as I think most of the bikes were sold locally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laird387 Posted October 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2014 Hi, This shot is of Paul Anstey riding his Honda in the 2010 Sammy Miller round in the Pateley Bridge area organised by the Ilkley club. For members interested in the twinshock machines in these events I have started telling the story of 20+ years of the Sammy Miller series in the digital Magazine ORRe, where you will find plenty of images, all without watermarks, - so if you have ridden in a Sammy Miller trial - ever - there is a chance you could be in the magazine!
