ruffrider Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 (edited) Please forgive me if this has been covered before, I searched but couldn't find anything. My lad loved building the paper GasGas cut-out model posted on here a while ago, and is nagging me to track down plastic kits of Trials Bikes. I've googled for ages and trawled the Airfix website but found nothing. Anyone come across anything ? I'd appreciate any pointers, thanks.

Andy Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 I'm going out to the Japan World Round. Don't know if there will be anybody selling this kind of thing onsite, but if there are then I'm happy to take a few back if there's demand (and the price is right - obviously!)

lewis_gasgas Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 Think that would be a good idea Andy you could always sell some at hawkstone if you got someone to have a stall or something with your TC clothes ect ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruffrider Posted March 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 Thanks all. Andy, by posts on here it looks like the models do exist. Yeah, if you come across any then I think it would be a good idea to get some. I'm sure the shortage in the UK would make them good sellers. I'd certainly take 1 or 2 off your hands for a sensible price of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruffrider Posted July 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 Hi, Just thought I'd ask if anyone has come across any kit models of Trials bikes since we last discussed it back in March. Anyone know if there'll be any for sale at Hawkstone ? Thanks for any help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the addict Posted July 24, 2006 Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 Richard, saw a rev 3 one in a shop, really good model and very life like, even comes with a trail of petrol behind it from the mikuni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
