This pic was just posted as a thought provoking idea of how a bike like this would sell today as well as other models such as the Honda XR 650 - Kaw 650 etc - Simple design really compared to what the factories are promoting today - What are your thoughts?
=========================================.
How many bikes is enough ? Well this is Bernie Schreiber with a local collectors machines in Zurich

Here is a great pic from the Scottish - back when they used this section called Edramucky. ( Photo by Ian Laurie)

And for our Spitfire enthusiasts !!
=====================================>
Yesterday was a busy day - first a quick load up of all the winter junk out of the car port & off to the dump - then - back home to pick up some Wulf stuff to take to the Post office - and stop off at the Bank - both of the latter projects, now taking quite a long time as we line up to self distance , plus of course the banks are now only open for a few hours.
- I did have a nice chat with an Indian rider ( A white guy riding an Indian Motorcycle !!!) who parked alongside me at the Bank - he told me he just loves his bike, best one he has owned and very comfortable for long rides. - I couldn’t help but tell him the story of Babsy & myself doing 3,000miles through Europe on a Norton 600 back in 1963. ( we had lots of time to chat in the line-up)
======================================>
Back at home - another Wulf shipment had arrived, so it was back to packing up Helmets & boots for going out tomorrow. - The problem with this latest Pandemic, is we are at a loss to really know what and how much to stock - Yes we have quite a lot on hand - but we are lucky to get the 4 day delivery from Wulf, which helps big time. - Some readers may have seen the pic of me from last Sunday wearing the Wulf gear - all very smart and hard wearing ( made in Scotland) - The Trials boots I find really comfortable - although the white/yellow riding gear was a one-off order to see how it matched the TRS color scheme.
Be sure to check with us if you need more info on all this riding gear.
==========================================>
As many of you will have noticed - Trials bikes are getting pretty scarce at the moment, due to the shut down of the Factories - there are still a few good bikes available from both Beta and TRS, but these will be grabbed up soon - and don’t forget, with the shake up in the money market, any new 2021 models are certainly going to be up in price, - so now you know “The rest of the Story” - You know how to contact me - you will never get a better deal.

PSSSST - Anybody looking for a 2020 Beta Evo 300 Factory ?? - I know where the last one is.
