It's an old trials bike and things have moved on from when it was made. I just don't really get why people are so preoccupied with making them ride like a modern bike. If you enter the right trials meant for that bike it's fine the way it is, that all im saying. I keep getting told I have to modify the foot pegs and get the old suzuki top yoke to make my Beamish Suzuki better, I'm well no I don't, I won my class with it the way Beamish made it, beating plenty of modded 70s n 80s bikes, so its fine as is lol Edited March 7, 2017 by shakennstirred 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbofurball Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 Not everyone thinks like you, though ... and development of old twinshocks can make them a lot more relaxed to ride and easier for those of us without your high level of talent ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
