Thanks iron belly

Hi, I am interested in getting started in the wonderful world of trials riding, to advance my riding skills. I have my “R” class bike licence and have been riding on the road for about 3 years now and I have also done some bush bashing on a dirt bike. So I have the basics of riding a bike. I would like to get some info on what size bike and some info about getting started. I live in Western Australia, I am a 30 year old male 184 cm tall and weigh about 110kg’s (not one of the skinny guys) I would really like to start in this sport to learn more bike control and meet some likeminded people. I don’t have a very big budget and would be looking to start with a complete setup for around the $1500 mark. Any help would be much appreciated. Cheers Dave

Cool thanks for the ifo guys i will start looking once the bank balance has come up a bit

Sorry to be a PITA but what capacity bike should I be looking for, I was thinking 250cc mainy for my weight, is this correct? Dave

Thanks for all your help guys, this gives me a good direction as to where i am headed now, i will start to keep an eye out for a 2nd hand bike and i will go along to the next club meeting. Dave

Thanks guys, for your help, what would you suggest for me to get for a first bike, for under 3000 if that is possiable

Thanks for the encoragement guys, i am hoping to get along to a meeting at my local club here in Western Australia in the new year when they start up again. once again thanks for the help. Dave
