Another 'what bike' question, I'm afraid.

The 315r seems to be a regularly recommend first-time-trials bike, the Rev3 also seems to get some good reviews and it seems can be got for around what I was hoping to pay if you look at earlier models (ideally under

The Scorpa SY250 is also makes a great learners trials bike. Of the three you mentioned, the Honda is the most dated design but is still a robust reliable bike and perfectly capable in competition at beginner and clubman level. Where I live none of them, even the SY250 long ride, is road registerable. Very few people want rego either because even with a long-ride type seat they are very uncomfortable to ride sitting down, and competition tyres wear out in a flash on the road.
