Reliving my youth

Postby Phil 850 » Wed Dec 23, 2015 7:53 pm

Hi all
I have just joined the forum.
When I was a lad, I had a Honda MT250 and rode trails etc (and fell off a fair bit).
I'd always wanted a Trials bike and have now decided to relive my youth.
I don't intend to start riding Trials, but who knows what will happen in the future.
I'd like to buy a Montesa Cota 247 (1972-1974, same era my MT 250 was from) for restoration and putter about the bush.
I've recently restored a MORRIS MINI 850 and need another project to tinker with in the garage.

Regards
Phil

Welcome Phil
Great to hear you enjoy reliving the 1970s via dirt bikes. That's my era too.
Best of luck with your 72-74 Cota 247 resto. They are a nice bike to ride and look fantastic


relax, nothing is under control
