New trials bike from Ossa
Just noticed that Ossa is making a new trials bike. I know there are some here who have or have ridden trials bikes. 2 stroke with fuel injection and exhaust exiting at the rear. Looks interesting. Might have a closer look when one is available here, always enjoyed riding friends MAR Ossa in the early 70's. A bit different and continuing to be so apparently.

Rumor is that Honda is working on that arrangement as well (in various street bikes) - although there's a certain conflict with the nose heavy thing.

That thing looks like it could be alot of fun. Talk about an exercise in minimalism, My mountain bike looks heavier!

How is your health going JonyRR? You seem to be a bit less active on the forum these days. Must be the time of year for the canon to be dusted off is it?
I have been looking seriously at the Sherco's, but will wait for some reviews of the Ossa. Really like the look of it.

kmoore;
doin' all right, thanks for asking. many other things going on and since I'm keeping my 1100S and it's totally sorted out, and since I decided that unsolicited advice (even my own perfect advice, haha) is not what people want to hear, I just hang out. Blinging my HD streettracker out. pix to come in a month or so. yes, the cannon did roar several times yesterday..I had to get a permit from the city, but I got one

I think it is really neat the way Ossa have tucked the exhaust right out of the way and have the air intake at the highest point on the bike. Some interesting design features that will probably influence the competition.
