Hey Tim,
Regarding the forks on your TY "dairy bike" - did you manage to re-chrome those? Or did you find better examples to use?

Cheers
Lachlan

Cheers David, I've got a set of TY forks off my "b" model that look similar condition to these - looks like there's hope for my forks after all! :D

I found my way here after seeing David Lahey's superb Peter Paice replica in VMX (takes ages to get to the UK)

It's a 1974 Ty250a that is a slow progress riding restoration (but not back to standard) job.

I bought it from eBay blind as a non runner and it needed work on almost every component but I am getting there as time and money allows

The aim is to end up with a mildly tricked up bike but that still looks more or less like an A model - I am almost certain to change my mind a few hundred times as the project goes on and I am quite tempted to give it a bit of a feel of the Kimura bike in the Yamaha museum but not a replica of it. I hope that by the time it's finished I am at least slightly competent on it as even though I have bene riding motorcycles for 31 years I am amazingly rubbish at this trials lark :-)

Anyway here she is so far ....

The 2012 Ormstown Vintage Fest was a success. A picture of the ''students '' at the Mick Andrews Classic Trial School held on the friday. We where 51 participant at the trial held on the saterday, a bit less on sunday all TS ( I should say mostly TS as a couple of rigid frame owners came to play with us ). Super organisation, I look foward to next year.
