Thank you for letting me register to the forum.
Just bought a 1977 TY250D, in rough but usable shape. Apparently was used by the previous owner in 2017 Nationals and pretty much sat since.
A few cosmetic issues, incorrect rear guard, missing front guard, MX handlebars, home made seat and bash plate, and a broken side fin on the cylinder head is about the crux of it.
This is my first Trials bike, and I will be joining our local Club to hopefully make some new friends and learn about trials. I will restore the bike after I've 'gotten to know it'. I was born in '77 hence the attraction. I have recently restored a '77 Z50J1 Honda monkey bike for the lounge room! :)
My partner and I ride 'old pommy bikes' ('50's model Matchless and BSA singles) at local historic motorcycle rallies etc, and love them too.
Thanks again, and hope to learn much and enjoy a new challenge for my 'getting old now' body - yep.. I'm 43.
