Twinshock Trials Bike - Collective views?

What do you think about this? Will it be competitive?

It's not the bike, it's the rider.

Whats the story on those bikes? Old, new? One nice bike is cool but both look just as nice so I'm thinking there is a kit, or some such out eh?

First up I'm far from the definitive historian but here's what I know ,

Majesty's were in fact a kit, but way back then, not now I believe they were developed by Mick Andrews and John Shirt using the Yamaha TY as a base hence the name MA (Mick Andrews) JES (John Shirt) TY (Yamaha TY). Indeed a beautifull looking twinshock Trials Bike and very collectable as well. I think the frame may even still be available in England somewhere, not sure have a search around you'll find heaps
