How many motorcycles do you own? For some reason I want to build a vintage 4 stroke trials bike. Which of yours do you think would be best suited?
Cheers

hi paul .not sure.8 or 9 iguess..i think the 76 250 is best. ive done about 3/4 of the work needed to make it trials worthy.. frame deraked 3degrees, shortened swingarm 2inches, frame de-tabbed etc. needs a few things done yet. a carb (26or28 keihin mikuni,even an amal.) .no seat yet..steering stops need cutting down. i have an extra 350 motor if ud prefer it.
i can email pics or text.address?

I sent a PM not an e-mail. I have a '75 XL 350 side port in mint shape but needs top end work. I also have a '76 center port same thing (needing top end work). I need a good running side port. I also have a early '70 XL 250 in good shape but non running. Hard to find anyone willing to rebuild these engines here in Ontario. Any help on any of my issues would be welcomed.
Mike.
