As I understand it an electric trials bike does not need separate insurance as it should be insured under the house insurance - same as a push bike etc.
Only motor vehicles need their own insurance.
You obviously need to notify your house insurer of the Oset - detail, value etc.
That's all I did with my sons Mecatecno.
Has anyone ever noticed that busto rides with his middle fingers for clutch and brake!? Does anyone else do that ? I tried it earlier it’s really weird!
Yea my son does this. I noticed it and tried to 'correct' him but he just reverts as soon as he stops thinking.
Now leave him to it.. evolution of trials?
Think it’s a great move by Vertigo. Technically he’s a phenomenal rider.
Lacks some finesse and (I think) endurance on trial GP day but that will come in the next couple of years. Think he (or maybe Gelabert) could be the one that runs Busto close in a few years when Bou, Raga, Fuji, Cabes, Fajardo go.
Agreed. Think Busto next world champ but Bou seems unbeatable for next 2-3 years UNLESS Busto has the same impact on Gas Gas that Bou had when he arrived at Montesa.
Bou and Raga head an shoulders above for a good couple of years if they stay injury free
Like a few others I think Dibs has been at his absolute best on the Gas Gas - great if they could keep him but seems improbable IF Fajardo / Busto happens.
Also got Grattarola and Kadlec in Trial GP supported by Gas Gas so cant see them having 5 in top 10-12
Also got Chatagno in Trial 2 who could/should be Trial 2 champion in 2018 as well as Dan/Jack Peace and Pederson all being supported to some extent by the factory - even if just bike / bits and not travel / wages etc its still a fair expense I'd imagine
Bou, Raga, Busto, Fuji, Cabestany wont be leaving their respective teams you'd imagine?
Fajardo - Will Vertigo keep 2 riders? Will he go back to Beta or will he go Gas Gas? Is it ultra important for the Spanish marque to have a Spanish rider as No.1?
Dabill - would assume he'd stay unless GG want Fajardo back. Would Dibs go back to Beta?
Kadlec?? maybe
Grattarola - seems very settled on GG so cant see it.
Thats the top 10 so I'd guess either Casales / Fajardo swapsies or Dibs goes back if GG bring Fajardo back.
Outside chance of possibly Gelabert or Farre but neither (IMO) polished enough to be Beta No.1
Noguera gone to Jotagas

So whatever Jotagas are doing this season it looks like they have some funds somewhere with Oriol Noguera signing to ride Trial GP with them.
Interesting choice of rider for them. Seems to hot and cold and not exactly high profile. Be good to see what he / the bike does.
