September 15, 201411 yr Hello, im after getting into trials but got to sell my bike first then i would like to get a gasser txt 250 and would like some pointers to look out for when buying one cheers
September 16, 201411 yr Hi and welcome jonnyp22, first thing that you should do is find a trials club near you, then go along and speak to the guy's there. Then find out what is involved in buying a second hand trials bike from the club members who i am sure would be happy to help you. Other than that, if you want to go out and buy a bike then make sure that it belongs to the seller and that it starts and rides o.k. The list of what you should check is extensive but common sense should keep you right. Good luck and cheers John.
September 16, 201411 yr Author how can you check if the bike isnt stolen if its not road reg'd? Can you HPI the frame number? Theres a txt 250 pro in inch perfect trials that i really want but im struggling to sell my aprilia falco at the moment
September 16, 201411 yr You can check the the frame number has not been tampered with but more about the seller is he legitimate, can he give you history of the bike, proof of ownership etc, invoices for parts or work done, just the same checks that you would do if you were buying a road bike. cheers John.
