The hood over the headlight was introduced in 1956. I had a new 1955 350cc Red Hunter (XRA632) which cost GBP 186. At the time, my father had a 1948 350cc Ariel Hunter with girder forks (HNN481). I later traded my bike for a 1955 650cc Huntmaster which had the same frame and running gear as the 350cc. Sorry, I can't remember its plate number .All the bikes were very easy to maintain and service and were very reliable. I emigrated to NZ in 1962 and had to leave my bike behind as we were limited for space for our belongings. In those days we had a six weeks voyage via Cape Town, the Indian Ocean and the Australian coast., instead of one or two days by air.

Is it just me or do the smaller 2 stroke bikes seem to be a bit better for this sort of course? Don't get me wrong I love all of these older machines but am leaning towards the 2 strokes and am on the verge of buying suchlike, I have my eye on a Sprite but then I keep seeing the four stokes from the tiger cubs up, which would be the better for a novice?
@peterstephenson49357 ай бұрын
I rode in trials in the early 1960's mostly on a 250 Greeves. Yes, the smaller, lightweight bikes generally have a shorter wheelbase and are more easily handled in sections with tight turns. Also you would find that a larger, heavier, 350 Ariel (for example) will demand a lot more fitness and work from the rider, particularly a novice. Whatever you get enjoy your trials riding, it is a great sport.

Yes, I agree with Peter S for this comment. The 2 strokes in my opinion are a great way to learn trials skills on and are much more fun to ride because they are lighter. Pick up a 4 stroke later in your career.
