Observed Trials Tech

So what's this all about? It's about trials and making your trials bike perfom better. This blog is to share ideas and expose trials riders to technical improvements for both modern, vintage and twinshock machinery.

Future Victim



One of our fall and winter projects (and hopefully we won't still be working on it by spring!) is going to be a trick little Honda Reflex conversion. By conversion we mean from the trail bike that Honda sent us back to, with much improvement, an RTL200, a competitive twin-shock machine.

We are working on the tank-seat units now and should have our final proto-type complete in a couple weeks. Pictured above is the very first proto-type tank-seat unit. We already have a nice aluminum exhaust system, you can just see a corner of it in the photo.

We have plans for some engine and carb modifications. Of course Falcon shocks and upgraded front suspension will be in the cards.

We're still playing with lots of ideas and combinations, no telling what it'll look like when it gets done!

This is our fairly sane project, wait until you see our really wild one...........

    The tank-seat unit looks great!
    I'm not surprised PWA likes those RIMPS.
