Nice AHRMA Premier lightweight. Handlebars could be a problem as they are 1 inch as I recall. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o> Dave
Hi folks, really enjoying this thread. Heres my project.... [/IMG] Started with a very stock bike. This is only a paint and polish job, I wanted to keep it mechanically original and no aftermarket parts if I could help it. [/IMG] I've hit a wall people, and I hope you can help. The rear fender is beyond repair and the front one was always missing, I can't find replacements anywhere... Can anyone give me a lead?? I'm in Australia but I don't mind sourcing from overseas. Hope you can help me, Peter.
The old girl, pretty rare old bird as it's a twin, and yes Greeves did do twins to special order. This ones a bit of a bitzer as it was built by a local trials rider. And the modern one.
Thanks Evil, I'd imagine an ice fender would have good clearance (for the spikes?), however this guy only ships within the states. I'm chasing up a couple of leads in the UK. Peter.
Have you tried giving these guys a shout??? http://www.lewisportusa.com/ They are quite acquainted with the TLR's.
Starting to come together. running pretty good. <object width="425" height="344"> <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Md1VCvCGkMQ&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></object> Mike
Finally figured how to post pics: Just finished putting a new Dunlop 803 on the rear, need to do a little tuning and I am ready to ride.
I just sold this little Gem a couple of months back to finance another adeventure (Yamaha TRI-Z 250) which I recently sold to finance yet another adventure (I know, it is a BAD habit, but...). Was a fun bike to ride. I am sure by the time we start camping this summer andmy brothers and I are sitting there in the campground "watching the kids" while the wives are out ridding I will miss it... all those stumps... just sitting there... dang now I already miss it! http://s822.photobucket.com/albums/zz143/highmark05/?action=view¤t=665A0283.jpg
guy I know bought this montesa cota and I helped him get it running. the rubber in the petcock had deteriorated and plugged up the holes. seems it's in pretty good shape for an '81. speedometer shows 1500 miles.
I really like my greeves. If i could locate a twin Id jump in immediately. My 60 scottish is supposed to be really rare here in the us. it even has a plate. ive never seen or heard of a twin around here. currently wrenching on a pair of BSA's...gonna turn em into trail machines. Mike
