jmatch Posted August 29, 2021 Report Share Posted August 29, 2021 Greetings all, I've been lurking and realized I hadn't said hello so here goes. I'm John French and live in NC USA, I've been riding trials since about 1990 (I'm 61) and currently have about 5 or 6 (or 7) trials bikes. My modern bike is a 2016 Montesa 4RT 260 and in order of next oldest they are 1985 RTl250 Honda, 1980 199A Bultaco, 1977 Ty250D Yam, 1975 Tl125 Honda, 1966 Triumph Cub and a '61 G3C Matchless. G3C is too nice to ride in dirt so I had to buy another that I can crash in a section and not cry too much. It's still very much a project so it will be a while before that one sees a trial. I have my own small shop so I can do most tasks myself. I'll get back to studying all the activity here that is interesting to my projects but will speak up when I can't find an answer, thanks! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmatch Posted August 29, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2021 Got a couple shots here on this computer. You all know what a Mont 4RT looks like, here's the Bultaco (as found, tarted up like a 199B), the '61G3C and the RTL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbofurball Posted August 30, 2021 Report Share Posted August 30, 2021 I can see why you want to keep that Matchless "for best"! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
