Hi i have recently returned to trials after a long break, and thought that the more power the better so bought a Sherco 290, have been using it for about a year but have found the power to be very intimidating after having several trips off the back, I tried a Beta Evo4T and liked it and have now bought one, done 2 trials on it now and it is a lot easier to ride for an old duffer like me, hope this opinion is helpful.
