January 1, 201313 yr I'm looking at getting into trials for fun, been on bikes all my life but never trials for some reason. I have the chance of a Montesa 315r 2000 model. It looks a bit rough but Im told its mechanically sound. How much is it worth ? tinkering with bikes isn't a problem either, in fact I'd expect to be doing it anyway. Thanks

Thanks Hi, I'm sure you will get addicted once you get started, I can't help you with the value of the Montesa but the Stevenstone MCC is in your area and they are a great bunch. Chris

January 8, 201313 yr Author well that was an experience ! travelled all the way to penrith on sunday to do a deal with my suzuki jimny and 2 trials bikes............they were absolute dogs and I never took them even with an offer of £400 on top ! 1 was a 98 beta 350 I think and the other a 2000 montesa 315r. Looked like 2 bing bikes, free for all have a go and little sign of maintenance, more like patch it and go again. I think they would have been more trouble than they were worth.
