As a late 70s early 80s trials rider this really took me back. A little disappointed there were no Ossa or Montessas. You did show my first Honda thou. Thanks again for the memories.
What an excellent video. Great job you have done. My favourite bikes have to be the Majesty’s but you gotta love what people do with the humble Bantam these days.
My favourite bike was.................Bultaco, then Bultaco and also Bultaco LOL!! I just love them all, but as an old Bultaco Sherpa 350 rider I do show a little bias, don't think that came across though!!!!
I really enjoyed this, thank you. Too many lovely bikes to have a favourite. I owned a BSA C15 (road bike) back in the 60s, so a C15 always quickens the pulse! Had a couple of Bantams too (maybe three), so although not a 2-stroke fan I have a soft spot for the Bezza Bantam. If I had to choose one, it would probably be the Triumph twin. They just sound so lovely. My only Triumph was a TRW, so not so much snap and crackle there! Happy enough with my Serow now. Love that bike. Les in Chester
Great stuff. Nerdy question, but I'd be interested to know what camera/video you're using? Very smooth zooming in and close up work. Looking forward to future stuff from you.
Thanks Nigel. It's a Sony Camcorder. FDR AX53. We have one at work so I bought one myself as I'm familiar with the controls and know the quality is good. Love your videos of the trials btw. Plans for more videos I had to put on hold, but hope to get going soon.
@@trialsworkshop2584 Crikey, some mutual admiration going on here. Like me then, you got familiar with a particular camera, so stayed with it. I think 4K must play a considerable part in the quality in yours. I'm doubtful though it helps with what I do , shooting moving subjects (with fps rates being important), but I've recently been doing 'pit walkarounds' capturing old classics etc before the events start, so think I'll need to make the 4K jump soon, so will certainly consider the Sony you use as it's not too expensive (I always have to factor tripping/falling and dropping and damaging an expensive camera at trials meetings so stay away from big budget stuff... plus I'm a tight bugger).
Love the trials porn. I'm not a trials rider and at 70 I guess it's a bit too late to start, but looking at the workmanship on some of these bikes they would not be out of place in a museum or someone's living room. As an official old fart (see above) I would like to see a bit more of the older 4 stroke bikes, but then I'm not sure if they would appeal to all. Great camera work and editing. Keep up the good work - I'll be watching.

That RTL ! Gorgeous machines….
Always liked the business look of a trials bike.
What an excellent video. Great job you have done. My favourite bikes have to be the Majesty’s but you gotta love what people do with the humble Bantam these days.
Rothmans Honda, best looking trials bike ever !! So it didn't get crushed..... Good video, looking forward to more.. Cheers
It was great to see my bike featured a couple of times in the video. Very enjoyable.
Great work Steve ! An extremely enjoyable watch, look forward to what comes next
We also love Classic Trials Bikes!!!!
Very Impressive collection !
Thanks for filming, i couldnt get there
Très beau reportage, merci pour ce travail. Il ne manque que des OSSA ...
Wow! It really nice!
Awesome! ...Thanx for posting! ...But no Merlin's or Cagiva/Merlin's there? ...There should have been IMHO!

Excellent video ! Eddy's RTL - envy, envy
Fave bike, my 325cc Bultaco Sherpa, circa 1978 - got stolen, however. Rode a Fantic 160cc in the 1981 SSDT - that was on a par with the Sherpa.
I think i saw a bike by Britannia Motorcycles , Michael Waller ?
No Montesa?
Hi Steve great idea on new venture look forward to seeing videos. Rothmans Honda is my favourite. I nearly had a sex wee when seeing it.
Thanks, although perhaps a little more info than anyone needed to know!! Certainly is an iconic bike.
Some of those Bultaco's are messed up -- but I suppose you could sort them out. :0/
Nice fantic k ROO
Yamaha ty350 mono for me……..beautiful
Not many 350's in the UK, I'd like to give one a go.
@@trialsworkshop2584 yeh ive never even seen a pic of one before, lovely

Suspension is supposed to be smooth. 😂 It seems like a little known secret.
MONTESA ?????????
