Motocross V Trials...
I do both and motocross is more fun but there is a greater risk of injury .Trials is very skilful and takes a long time to learn and can be frustrating but conversely very satisfying when you get it right .Minor bruises an grazes are normal but you'd be very unlucky to be injured enough to need time off work You can be slow at motorcross and still have fun but if you're poor at trials it's hard work and frustrating till you improve

Gas Gas Txt 250 2000 Running Too Hot...fuel Mix?
Should be ok at 45 mph on the road in 6th gear check the sprocket sizes a previous owner may have lowered the gearing All 2t trials bikes smoke for a while on the road it's just oil accumulated in the pipe burning off with the pipe getting hotter It may have never been used on the road so there's years worth of oil in there to clear out I don't feel there's anything to worry about
