I am sure I didn't dream this but didn't they have a project bike based on a Uly that was like a bike supermoto but with a cut down rear end off of a ss ? Can't find it on the site now. Would like to see what it comprised off exactly I can see the high mudguard etc but what else was on it?

Wasn't that big a change. Matt started with a 12X and put the 12Ss rear end on it.

He did a lot more to turn it into the race bike... the open primary made a lovely noise, f'rinstance. :lol:

remind me, why did Trojan use a XBX and not a mini-moto :?: ................presumably the wheelbase was better suited
