Insurance Choices
In your position, your best option is the CN offroad policy I doubt you will be able to get road cover as you haven't got the correct bike licence Which big trials do you want to ride?

Pre65 Parts Stolen Along With Transit From Dronfield
I reckon the bits will be in a scrapyard now for their weight The thieves would probably have no idea what they were in reality & were just after the van If it was a targeted theft, then I bet the bits are in Spain or France by now

06 4Rt Or 2012 Evo?
Unless he wants a 4T I said that in my post, a 2T Evo will be a better bike in most people's hands - however we're not all the same and some prefer the Mont Ride each bike and see what you like best

06 4Rt Or 2012 Evo?
Very different bikes An 2t Evo will be more competitive in most clubman's hands, no contest 4RT is a class act, not to everybody's liking - but when it all comes together, it does feel good It always depends on terrain too, if you're riding more open type Northern rocky sections, these will favour the 4RT

Viewing My First Potential Trials Bike........

1979 Honda Rtl 360 From Hrc In My Shed
Well said Woody No jealousy here, I'm not good enough to ride a beast like that I think the guy removed pics for his own reasons, maybe threat of theft (easy to I'd a location from a pic) or some other reason

Really , Is It A Classic ?
Many thanks Another one off the list........................I think i'll stick to riding Trials and just spectate at a Vinduro enduro, it'll be cheaper

Really , Is It A Classic ?
It made £1665 on the Bay today, now you mention it - the bike had a YZ case, but the crumbly Mag brake plates, I should imagine (had enough of them with Twinshock TY's ) I have a 98 XR250R, which is sound and in great nick - luckily I can ride it in the trailbike class at some Vinduro timecard events, so I think I'll use that and just soak up the old bike stuff, without the ownership hassle Thanks for the tip, never had much to do with Kwackers - I also fancy a 1990 RMX250 Suzuki, for some reason if I can find a good'un
