 | Trials bikes I am considering trading my dirt bike for a trials bike. Much more technical that MX. Does anyone have any experience with these? | |

| Re: Trials bikes All I can say is the local stunna crowd is now rocking beta's...heh. edit: that fact was just for amusement, I think they're hella cool. And you are more apt to get permission to ride somewhere too (if thats an issue for you now). Just be prepared to take it down a few notches from MX, and get used to replacing both tires at the same time again from what I hear. Last edited by SomeStrangeGuy : 11-10-2004 at 1:17 AM. |

| Re: Trials bikes I rode trials for 11 years, I had a blast, some of the nicest people you would ever want to meet. last bike was a 2000 Gas-Gas 320 nothing like being able to do a 3 foot wall from a stand still. the sport will teach you more about throttle and clutch control than any other. It is also the cheapest form of motorcycle competition left |
