Here are some scans and pics from Mark Frei, who imported the only Ariel HT5 back in 1958 and was competing in trials and enduro Swiss championship.




The Ariel Trials version was developped from the Red Hunter series and was commercialised 1956-59. There were 2 versions available: HT5 with 500ccm and HT3 with 350 ccm. The weight was claimed at 132 kg (dry without liquid). This was clearly ahead of the 150kg of a 350ccm AJS. There was no lighter and more powerful 4 stroke trials bike around. Front wheel was 21 and rear 19(!), ground clearance about 22 cm.

Limpnickie Lot Builders Join Sturgis Buffalo Chip Celebration

During the 2011 Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, the Limpnickie Lot of custom bike builders will be creating their own FREE Limpnickie village with over 20 Limpnickie Lot motorcycle builders and a skateboard ramp in the free area, near the Buffalo Sculpture at the West Gate at Sturgis Buffalo Chip.




Tuesday, August 9th - The 5th Annual Cycle Source Magazine Black Hills Run will roll out at noon from the Limpnickie Lot village at Buffalo Chip.

Friday, August 12th - The Limpnickie Lot builders and Cycle Source Magazine present The Cycle Source Free Night Time Chopper Show. The bike show will feature 10 classes, free entry and prizes from Legends Air.

"We have watched what Chris and Taber have created over the last few years and feel like the Buffalo Chip is the perfect place for them to realize their fullest potential in Sturgis. We see this as a long-term partnership that will round out the world class attractions that the Buffalo Chip already offers," said Rod Woodruff, owner of the Sturgis Buffalo Chip.

"This new free area of the facility will be a combination of the laid back Limpnickie attitude and the world-class destination of the Chip," said Chris Callen, owner/editor of Cycle Source Magazine and co-owner of the Limpnickie Lot.

The Limpnickie Lot took the motorcycle industry by storm in March of 2008 during Daytona Bike Week when the original 11 Limpnickie Lot members took over the parking lot in front of the Stone Edge Skatepark. It was the first time young builders and small parts manufactures had joined together in an effort that would combine their passion for custom motorcycles and their cultural identifiers like skateboarding, punk rock and metal music. They had a successful week that changed the face of motorcycling and finally gave the rising next generation of motorcycle builders a united voice.

"We wanted to have our own kind of rally and found other like-minded next generation builders who shared our common interests. It has blown up over the last few years and we are really stoked to be at The Buffalo Chip this year," said Taber Nash, co-owner of Limpnickie Lot.

The Legendary Buffalo Chip will be celebrating "30 Years Strong" with a packed music lineup that includes Alice Cooper, Bachman Turner, Buckcherry, Charlie Brechtel Band, Edgar Winter, Def Leppard, George Thorogood & the Destroyers, Greg Allman, Jeff Bridges & Friends, Lukas Nelson, Lynrd Skynrd, Poison, Pop Evil, Puddle of Mudd, Saving Abel, Styx, Sweet Cyanide, Tesla, Toby Keith, and Williams & Ree.
