uhoh7 Posted December 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2005 In 76 or 77 I saw Bernie ride in a trials near Auburn, Calif. I rode a bit with the Galbreath Brothers (I was living in Davis) up at donner. Had a RL 250 Exacta, and they had Hondas. I had a chance to buy one of them for 450.00---they had lots of trick bits on them. Always regreted not having done so. Just having got my new trials competition newsletter, I was astonished to see photos of and by Howard Galbreath. Re the trials tire as enduro. Of course my KTM is 19in in the back, but I have toyed with the idea of lacing up a tubless 18" rim--with disc and sprocket for use on the KTM. Expensive proposition though. First I need a stator, lights and a big tank for it, hehe. From our last real ride this October Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motomickey Posted December 4, 2005 Report Share Posted December 4, 2005 Before you cut the chain, you may want to talk to Adrian at lewisportusa. He has different cams for the rear axel that allow you to run either sprocket without cutting the chain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farmerj Posted December 5, 2005 Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 Bar lifts The bar lifts Adrian has are pretty, but only raise the bar height something like 10-20 mm. I got some that are more like a 3/4" lift (sorry I can't remember for sure) from a link on the GG website. $29.95, and one could probably make them for $5.95 - but I didn't have to R&D and find the right length bolts. Just another option to think about . Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uhoh7 Posted December 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 (edited) thank you farmerJ What do all you guys think for a bar rise? .4 inches/10 mm or .75 inches/19mm I'm 6'1" tall Edited December 5, 2005 by uhoh7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
