    Hi, Larry here. I live in Wyoming and have ridden off-road most all of my life. Just bought an old KT250 that I'm looking to restore/ride. Little or no organized trials here (very little organized anything here...), but I'm a fan. Hoping to get some education on this forum, both on the riding and restoring.

    Hi I am from cheshire and have taken the step to build/repair a trials bike and attempt to ride through my first water hazard. I am new to trials, but not to classic motorcycles and after a break of about 19 years, want to get back in the saddle. I am looking to build something up from the frame onwards whilst documenting it all but in the mean time still attend events. Lots of questions to ask Andy

    Hi just joined this forum as a young lad I always had quads and buggies and had goes on mates bikes but as I grew up I couldn't find the time to do any of that kind of stuff anymore. These days now I've started a career and making headway I've got into greenlaning in 4x4s however I feel the need to get into something and trials grabs my interest. I'm gonna look at doing a day experience type thing to see if o do enjoying but just wondering is there anywhere in Oxfordshire that you can freely practice riding a trails bike and possibly I could go watch as well

  6. Hi all, just a quick hello. New to the forums but looks like I can get a from them. Returning to trials after over ten years out of it, in the market for a bike in next few months but will be asking a few questions about clubs and meets etc so if people could help it would be appreciated. Cheers.

    Howdy everybody, Rootsman2 here. I started riding back in the day first on a Suzuki Trail 90 and went on to ride Junior class on a British Penton 125 and wound up on a MAR. Coming back, I bought a 1972 Sherpa T and a Sherco ST 300. Rode 3 events on the Sherco - won them all - but hated the power and clutch so I sold it. Went back to the Bull. Rode an event Sunday and cleaned 18 sections before my arthritis shut me down. Still love the Bull

    Hello, My name is Joel. I from Florida. I have been racing vintage motocross for a decade now and love all things vintage. My father-in-law, who used to race back in the day, got me into motorcycles and he and I have been restoring and racing vintage bikes ever since. I learned to ride on a 1971 Hodaka Super Rat and a 1986 Yamaha TY 350. I have always enjoyed riding the trials bike. My father-in-law used to compete in trials as well. I recently acquired a Fantic 240 professional trials bike (that had been sitting outside for 20 years with a tree growing out of it) and have joined the site in search of information about the bike, part sourcing, and just general vintage…

    Hi, registered here to get help and guidance for a project. I´m from Estonia and have always been interested in motorcycle trials but it´s not that popular here and we don´t get many used bikes and thought I´d build myself one for learning and move up from there. That was in 2009 but it got sidetracked since I went to the army and once I was back didn´t really have a place and time for it. Now, 7 years later I really want to finish it, though it´s more popular here but I´d just like to finish what I started. Either way trials bikes a few decades ago weren´t that different from your everyday motorcycle, so it´s better then nothing. Thus writing to ask what would be t…

    Hi. My name is alex and looking to start trials riding. I do a lot of mountain biking and looking to ride a bit of trials for fun to switch I up. Where abouts in Aberdeenshire or moray is ther to ride hassle free. I live at the foot of bennachie and fancy playing around there but sure I'll get caught out after not too long. Cheers

    A couple of months ago I inadvertently came across a couple of guys practising for an upcoming local trials competition, met a guy from my hometown, he let me ride his Beta, I was hooked, have since searched for a late model trails bike, no luck, but did find a new 2016 Montesa 4RT260, snatched it up before it was bought by a "competitor", more bike than I need, but it was available. Have since been practicing in back yard, very challenging, pros make it look easy to ride very slowly/stopped and stay balanced. Next step is to hookup with local riders. I am sure I will find this forum helpful as I have found for other bikes I own. Have also determined that a Rekluse clu…
