    Ahh Eddie, you've gone all modern. New Owner of my GasGas keeps telling me how much he likes it & to rub it in he's doing A grade.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    Thats no way to secure a bike to a trailer...

    You should put something between the tyre and tripple clamp., otherwise you're compressing the forks to their full extent and stressing seals.

    I might be wrong... it happens a lot.

    I've been carrying bikes that way for 20 years and never popped a seal yet.

    Would dat be de two on trade me?

    I'm looking for a trials bike, cheap, easy to start, reliable & easy spares supply. Just for mucking around on in the garden. I learned to ride on a Cota & a Bultaco... They were brutes for a 7 year old.

    Oh, my local bike mechanic has a Fantic K roo, 250 I think, sat out the back. The bike looks pretty clean & I know the guy he bought it off. Sounds crisp, I had the pleasure of starting the forward kick, high compression beast because I had moto x boots. Problem is the hydraulic clutch master cylinder is poked & he can't get the bits. Any interest or info let me know. If he fixed it I would have it in a trice but I need a bike the wee girlfriend can start. This thing needs a big foot. Probably sub $2000 fixed, as is, not sure.
    Manopausal.

    Not true. But bit hard on the fork springs if you leave 'em like that forever.

    If he does want to sell it it sounds like there's other people looking for them.
    That looks pretty good mate! May I ask what something like that is worth?

    Aye. The thing that gets me about the chock-it-up theory is: what happens if the chock falls out?

    If it's pulled down to within an inch or so of bottoming out it can't escape.
    Go soothingly on the grease mud, as there lurks the skid demon

    Yeah fuck the chock mate! Funny eh. If using all of your suspension travel resulted in popped fork seals...you'd be forever replacing 'em in ya moto-x bike eh!

    What it's worth and what I paid for it aren't necessarily the same thing. It's probably worth $2500.
