Nice, looking for a similar period twin shock, myself as well as a very slow build of an Enfield 250 into trials trim.
Something from my youth Montesa, Ossa Bultaco, eyen a Yam, at the "right" price cof course

My local bike shop has a Yam TY and an old Bultaco in - a real contrast to the brand new Husqvarna's they have in there (they've recently
taken on the dealer franchise) and a few KTM EXC's.
I've been doing some Green Laning recently (with Coose who used to be on here) and was chatting with a mate the other day about the prospect of
using a trials bike for the job - would be really good on short journey's where the trails are fairly slow and not far from fuel stops
