Introduce Yourself

Hi yet another newbie from the colchester area had a gasgas txt280 pro for while now and just got a Yamaha TY270 for the other half, I run the gasgas on 70/1 oil/fuel mix not sure what oil/fule mix to use in the Yamaha look forward meeting some of you at a trial one day Ian.

awesome site, thanks for all the excellent info i've acquired already. Most of what i know about trials riding, I've picked up at the local BSA club events. I rode a little in my 20's on a slightly modified Bultaco Alpina, but gave it up when we were short of cash. I recently picked up a TY175, and a huge pile of parts that should make 1 halfway decent TY250. Whichever I'm most comfortable with will become my next vintage trials machine. By the looks of it, the trials community is gigantic in Europe. I'm a little jealous. Nevertheless, I'm pretty excited about the new bikes, and the chance to have some fun with all the other old guys.

hello from wales got myself a project to get in to long distance trials.

Hi, I have a Montesa Cota 247 to rebuild. Hoping for some advise here please. Thanks, Daniel.

Greetings all, I've been lurking and realized I hadn't said hello so here goes. I'm John French and live in NC USA, I've been riding trials since about 1990 (I'm 61) and currently have about 5 or 6 (or 7) trials bikes. My modern bike is a 2016 Montesa 4RT 260 and in order of next oldest they are 1985 RTl250 Honda, 1980 199A Bultaco, 1977 Ty250D Yam, 1975 Tl125 Honda, 1966 Triumph Cub and a '61 G3C Matchless. G3C is too nice to ride in dirt so I had to buy another that I can crash in a section and not cry too much. It's still very much a project so it will be a while before that one sees a trial. I have my own small shop so I can do most tasks myself. I'…

Hello folks, I have Barged in using My Son's registration details. Yesterday I "Registered", or thought I had. The System aknowledged my registration---- E Mail address, log in name and password. No acknowledgement has reached my E Mail adress. I tried to log in tonight using said User Name and password. However , No Go! Message reads--- "This E Mail address is already in use" or words to that effect. So a second attempt at registering has been futile. No. 1 Son has not used My address, so that aint the prob! Sorry to use this method of communication but I couldn,t see any other way. Thinking back I always used to get lost in Sections, so getting lost in a Pute…

hello their

New guy from British Columbia Canada. I have been OBSESSED with trials motorcycles since unknowingly "trying" one last X-mas. I was immediately HOOKED and began scouring for a nice used bike. One year, HUNDREDS of hours riding and 3 bikes later I am still in LOVE and ride a 2010 GG 280. I live in Burnaby B.C. and ride A LOT at Ioco, Cowichan Valley, Southern Okanagan and whenever I can up at Pemberton. I prefer long technical trail riding, mountains, back country and getting out into the middle of nowhere in small groups but also very much enjoy observed and practiced riding also. Seems here in BC we have such a HUGE diversity and availability of outstanding terrain.…

hi, im jon, from cornwall. i bought an old 1998 gas gas txt270 a couple years ago and rode it to death. i am now looking for another bike albeit a fair bit newer this time, something like a 2008 (gas gas or sherco etc.. depending which feels best on test ride) any recommendations? anyway thought id sign up and say hi as this site seems a great place. hope to catch a few of you at a trial in the near future (will be my first ever trial!) ill most likely be the one on my side, in the stream. cheers jon

Hi folks I'm an old fogey who should probably know better, but I'd like to have a go at trials. I've been attending meetings in Kent, Sussex, Somerset and Devon sporadically for years just to watch, and have always found the sport fascinating - but I've never had a go. Is there any way to try it out first to see if you like it, before spending on a bike/trailer etc? A 'trials school' or similar? I'm in the UK, in Burnham-on-Sea, on the Somerset coast. TIA Barry

Hi, My name is Kutang. Motocycle is my passion in any form. I love reparing bike and riding them. I like to verify and conform my thoughts. See you in my new topic about Beta Evo 300.

Hello I am new here , my name is Joan , or John in English , though i have been watching you people posts from long time specially when i was living in China, now i decided to register myself as i am back in Spain, from there was impossible to get registered, you know and hear about the great " Fire" Wall. So i had a need for trials so strong in there that i considered doing a trials bike from an street 125 cc 4 stroke quite common there,following the old trials phenomena and your posts in the classic trial forum, i learned a lot of stuff from your posts, but i consider it a little difficult for me, so i start considering the easier option of buying and old trials bik…
