1970 bultaco sherpa model 49
frame no. B-4900920
engine no. M-4900920
a very rare motorcycle, the bultaco sherpa is one of the most pivotal of competition motorcycles. In the precise, feet-up world of observed trials, there was before the sherpa t, and there was after the sherpa t. That's how influential the design was.
trials was dominated by big british four-strokes, torquey and tractable but heavy. In a shock move, bultaco persuaded irish trials master sammy miller off his successful, beloved ariel 500 and enlisted him to develop a lightweight spanish 250cc two-stroke.
almost overnight. The four-strokes became obsolete as miller won the prestigious scottish six days trial on the new sherpa t in 1965. he would do the same in '67 and '68, and claim the european trials championship in '68 and '70. during the 1970s sherpa t's would win the world trials championship an amazing eight times.
