Hi guys I pretty much know nothing about trials but always wanted one. I remember watching the trials parts in the Terrafirma movies. Anyways If I could save a bit more money and find one cheap (1000-1300) I would maybe buy one. Queston is what would be best. I know going new as I can is best. My biggest question is parts. Are they really hard to find for 90s and early 00s bikes? A quick look at ebay and everything is from the UK and you pay more to ship the part than the part is worth.
There a re a couple bikes close to my price range that are close to me.
2001 Beta Rev 3 270

Looks to be a clean bike at a good deal.
1. Parts for it are they available?
2. Do you think the broken fender would work for a while?
1996 GG JTR 270/350

Same questions as above.
Is this bike too old to be reliable. I can do most maintenance on motocross bikes but without a good parts selection fixing things may be tough.
Is this 350cc cylinder a bad thing?
Overall also I would like the quietest bike I can get. Would maybe want to after work go to an abandon parking lot and work on balancing skills
Thanks again guys
