Advice For A Return After A 16Yr And 7Stone Break

Featured Replies

im returning to trials after a 16yr break i was 15 last time i did a trail im now 31 and 20stone im also on a budget bikes ive been looking at are motesa 315r and late 90's-2002ish gassers because im on a budget of around £1000,

ive always been a bit sceptical of betas reliability- should i be?

the bikes that ive metioned above, are parts and plastics readily availible still?

can you think of another bike i should look at?

Not much advise posted soo far, yet I will tell you this.

Find a good runner, old Mont is not a bad choice but the newer the better. Buy upon condition, yes parts are available.

You likely think you recall how to ride, you may or may not as the body may disagree with the mind. You will likely have to re-learn to get body to function. Not uncommon, but no rush, just go ride and take it easy. Join a club. Have fun and enjoy yourself and meet new friends.

Protect your body parts because you will likely fall off!

Now go ride!

Buy the brand that has the best dealer support in your area.

You'll be glad when the parts/repairs/advice come fast and with a smile.
