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.
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.
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.
I am hoping that you can help me out, i am very interested in starting moto trials, but i am a big lad, i am 183cm tall and weight 125kg am i too big to ride trials bikes? i ride dirt bikes at the moment and strugle with suspension setup but i do own an old husqvarna and it is had to get parts for.
