AJP are looking at offering a trials kit for the PR3. 21/18 wheels, rear sets etc which would make a good LDT bike.
Here's a clip of a standard one in action

You’re right I said Sherco s/b Scorpa T-ride. Beta and others have long ride kits.
The KTM looks wimpy compared to the others. I kinda see a trend here wonder where is it’s going?
Personally I kinda like them. Would prefer better styling on the long ride kits. Maybe something that can be used up to the section and then removed, tool less.
The electric one from KTM, Husky, look good. Still too much $$ for too little ride, but interesting. Would make a great Urban Assault Vehicle.
Pete you mentioned LDT bike? Light Duty Trials or Little Damm Thing, Lots of Design Time (needed)....

I do think there is a maarket for these even if it is a limited one. Just read about the KTM and it's aimed (KTM words not mine) at new riders and those short in stature. MMM a lot of money for that market?
What i read about the T-Ride when it came out, and I was really interested in one after seeing the viedeo is that it lacked power and was a bit lame. I personaly would love a small powerful bike I could through around
