  1. Switched my focus a little and picked up a tidy well looked after Sherco 2.5 2000 vintage, bodywork a bit tatty but everything else great....£1000 including some spare fork seals, dust caps, and a litre of 2T oil! Now for some balancing practice in the gardemn...weather permitting!
  2. Ssshhhhh don't tell everybody or we will have soft southern softies up here buying all the houses and paying over the odds for everything
  3. Cheers pretty standard stuff then nothing particular to this type ( I know that some makes have specific issues, but not well up on the possible foibles of Beta specifically other than stator/CDI and carb flooding issues talked about on here)
  4. Yep funny you should say that lol, my mate has just got a Beta Techno and has filled in his application for the Weds meeting of the club, I only have a KTM400EXC at the moment which is bit too heavy and powerful I think lol! We were there at the weekend for the competition and thats what started me thinking. Green laning is fine but as with trials its not a single person sport and you have to pay out for MOT, insurance, tax etc etc. Guy has offered me a Beta Rev 3 250 for £1000 running with new fork seals and oil, and new brake caliper seals, I thought it would be worth a look, anything in particular I should look out for do you know?
  5. Hello there just thinking about getting into this trial thing, have roadbikes and an enduro for greenlaning but looking fro something a little less violent lol. Don't have a bike yet but looking for a good beginners bike, 250cc 2T can't afford more than £1000 any suggestions? Cheers Mike
