Excellent, def coming to watch some of those, cheers Dan Culmstock area - Devon TRF Group member - KTM 690 Enduro |
Cool mate I like the enthusiasm you show and the need for something different Thanks for the links i will try and attend to show my support Is Ian riding the same events 'He who dares wins' |
Yes. I guess Dan and I will become neighbours this season. Politicians are like nappies. They need changing often, and usually for the same reason. |
Ian, if I had a 1980 KLX250, would I be able to enter? Craig V Twin Funster Dawlish

How many shocks does it have? Generally 2 = yes! Don't trust atoms, they make up everything! |
Of course you would Craig One of those would meet all the criteria. Air cooled, twin shock and drum braked. The only down side would be the power ...... or lack of it They can be made to go alot quicker though. Shame you were not at Telford last weekend. There were a few nice twinshocks at a reasonable price. I had to walk away from a complete 1984 Husky 500AE. At £1400 (less I guess if you haggled) it was a snip. Just needed a light restoration and engine check over. Would be good for classic enduro's too. A full on 500 two stroke enduro weapon with a 3 speed fully automatic gearbox ........ heaven !

I know it may have come across as a stupid question, but I just wanted to let folks know I am up for a bit of humiliation . Just hope that the bike is up to scratch. Picking it up from the Midlands next week. SWSBO has already expressed her disgust and deep dismay at the suggestion of my participation in competitive events . She thinks she is justified in spending the same amount of dosh on clothes and footwear. Me thinks things have backfired a little . Craig V Twin Funster Dawlish

Was that the one on ebay Craig ? If it was, it was up at Telford witha £750 price tag on it. If you got it cheaper then that's good. It needs a lot of work on it. Politicians are like nappies. They need changing often, and usually for the same reason. |
Ere Grouty are you going to Oswlesbury on 29 April? PS why has this thread gone all green?!

Got it cheaper than that. Don't mind a bit of work. Just hope I can get it ready in time . V Twin Funster Dawlish

Craig you'll make no more of a fool of yourself than anyone else!!! plus as its only about £40 for days racing I think you might be able to control your wife's equal and opposite reaction! (ps you'll need to ignore purchase and maintenance costs! - or hide them!) Don't trust atoms, they make up everything! |
Yeah, I blame you or Harty for making this thread go green ! Been bugging me for the last few days. Hey-ho.... it's the way this country is going. Not sure about Owslebury Dan, its the weekend before our meeting at Dartmouth. We are running three days this year. Saturday afternoon has a classic and twinshock trial. Full day's racing Sunday, and practice and two blocks on Sunday, plus prize giving. So maybe a little busy. On the other hand it maybe a good idea to go to Owslelbury as I probably won't get to race at Dartmouth. Politicians are like nappies. They need changing often, and usually for the same reason. |
You're right I hadn't noticed that they were so close. I'll think on it too. I have the regs if you decide to go Don't trust atoms, they make up everything! |
Cheers Dan. Time seems to be the issue this year with the family ! I've not even looked at the CCM for this year yet ! Only just about finished the Husky for next weekend with Neil, Rupert and Co. Worst case scenario, I could always take the lights off the WR and race that in the twin shocks. Politicians are like nappies. They need changing often, and usually for the same reason. |
You foot peg wideners have arrived Kerry, for the princely sum of £10! Dan -- Edited by devondan on Sunday 12th of February 2012 11:57:41 AM Don't trust atoms, they make up everything! |
Or borrow the IT and do the same! Don't trust atoms, they make up everything! |

If it takes Kerry as long to finish the XT as it did for Dick and Miles to build two new KSI Thumpers, he'll be in the over 60's class Looks like this thread is still green ! Any techies out there know why ? Politicians are like nappies. They need changing often, and usually for the same reason. |
