From Lluis Gallach's Interview "The bike was ok but the engine was air cooled not watercooled. There was no evolution in the bike...... The bike was good, but no evolution. For the first year in 1990 I ride all of the World competitions but the next year I ride not all of them. It was too expensive for the factory and I was getting older so this affected my results. I was 29 or 30 years old. I was paid for results at Alfer and I also get a wage each month. It was always the same."
Standard Marzocchi reservoir for the rear shock , mounted on the front down tube. Would Lluis have had standard suspension on the Alfer ?.
Yes . This is from his interview "This bike was always the same, no special parts. "
In 1991 Lluis rode the red Alfer TX300 in a number of national and World Trials , but the factory was low of cash (have we heard that somewhere before) and as per usual the first thing that goes is the competition department.

These markings placed on the bike headstock and engine casings , as most of you will know , are placed onto the bike at the start of World and national events. Its clear this bike has seen a lot of those type of events.
