I reckon bikes look best when they look like they have been ridden. Ten minutes riding at Bob's Creek or Seeonee Park next weekend will have those tyres looking very black again. The best place I have ridden for cleaning tyres is at Lowmead (granite soil)
I've just been out playing in the gully and it is still running water through there, so the tyres on the 348 look very nice, but not as red as yours. I've done even more setting up on it now and it is going so nice I may even ride it at next weekend's trial.

Re: Show us a picture of your Twinshock
Hmmm eurotrash for Rocky eh? Come on cough up this is called "show us a picture of your twin shock" after all.
In in that light and i might be stretching the rules a bit but here is my next wish list trials bike after the 2nd SWM [Hi Bill still trying to move my roadie and YZ so hold on to her].

europashtrash with mudded tyres photo coming
Bit of a shame for you then with the 1987 cut-off for twinshock trials class in Australia. I reckon the manufacture date of that bike would be approximately 2010.

Re: Show us a picture of your Twinshock
Why do you say a build date of 2010?
I had a look at a Armstrong with it's gear off and apart from the Kato look alike tank (horn) I reckon it's standard. Only 65% confident :).

Re: Show us a picture of your Twinshock
Howdy Y'all,
We folks from Maryborough are a fickle bunch, none more so than the notorious Suzuki RL strain of triallers we have here. You may remember this bike, that my dad (Mark Reed) put together:

In between floods, watching dubbed re-runs of Neighbours, and the occasional foray to work, he has now updated the RL to this:


Enjoy!
Cheers,
Your friendly Neighbourhood KawiMan,
Scorps

OK Scorps has got me motivated to post a picture of my camouflage bike ie my hotrod TY175 camouflaged as Mark Reed's RL250 in its earlier incarnation

Re: Show us a picture of your Twinshock
Here are 5 of my twin-shock bikes, only have the two twin shock trials bikes at the moment though, KT250A2 and 320TL. There are 6 bikes in the pic but one is a full floater, so don't count!!
