    Keep a look out on this site: http://www.motorcyclemarketplace.co.nz/ You might know about the mag too. They often have some nice trials bikes in it. Good luck finding one

    Oh nice! Mono shock,but drum brakes.They were considered pretty good when they came out,good enough to compete on equal footing with the Spanish and Italian bikes.1985 was the year I stopped doing trials so never really saw them in action.

    Nice , I had a TY years ago (with front disk conversion that was worse than the drum!), never got on with the low suspension/soft power but boy would it grip when it got really slippery!

    Have fun!

    Better to keep quiet and have people think you're stupid than open your mouth and prove it!

    Thanks. They are a lot of fun. I can just potter around the section, up and down the deck steps etc. Fantastic for learning skills that will become useful in the forest. Full lock figure of eights are worth practising.

    Cool. I have just gotten this to try and stop me doing wheelies etc on my road bike. Thought this would be a little more sensable.
    Plenty of places to tinker around on it here.
    30 more minutes and i will be doing just that!
