Dave

You are a pussy!

Lyall O'B (first Monty importer) said he hated trials riders. They dragged and bashed bikes over rocks, lost them in mud and slop and then thought the were of value because they never had to go fast! You must have lost plot!!!

Lovely Bike!!!!

Bikes are much easier - and cheaper - than cars, hey!


Shit yeah!!

Ive got my eyes on a suzuki RE5 rotary motor bike for my next restoration project.
Convincing the owner to sell it to me is what im working on at the moment!

G'day Restoremaz,

Just practising the ozzie lingo, anyway this bike (what was left of it) was an absolute basket case.
1975 model B i think! matching frame and engine numbers that's another reason i bought it.
A complete strip down and rebuild like your 250 but with a twist you might say. Never trialed as yet!!
the bike is a one off! Malcolm Davies Special and that's me!!
currently for sale on ebay due to the high cost of import to oz, but when i get there I may well build another!! I like to get my hands dirty and to keep such a fine example of a trials-bike on the scene gives me an enormous sense of fullfilment; undoubtably the best bike ever built in it's class in my opinion.

Keep ya feet up Yamaly
