Downsides In Learning Trial With Big Cc Trial?

I've a beta rev 3 200. Its ace and never feels too much. I had a raga 300 before which was too much.

I too come from an mx, enduro and road race back ground and feel that trials uses skills the other disciplines don't need but not the other way around. A handy trials rider can always ride anything else and do well. Your average mx rider has little or no finesse and struggles in trials with throttle control and keeping things cool and under control.

Trials need brains not braun.

You could by a bigger cc bike and tame it down but why bother when you can just go and buy a tidy 200 and just ride it. In a year or so you can trade up if you so desire? I bet you don't though.

I agree with Pindie, a 200 will be just fine

I really can't remember using full throttle on either of my bikes....I know that sounds weird but you can go WFO on every kind of bike but in trials it's all body position and maintaining traction

Overall power is not that important
