Ben H! Posted November 26, 2010 Report Share Posted November 26, 2010 (edited) I ride Moto trials also, I've started of with an 04 sherco 80, then a 08 125 GasGas Racing, Then a GasGas 300 pro 09, & now a 2010 Beta evo 290, I had enough with gassers breaking down (the 300) so I decided to get a Beta instead & never ever regret it, I prefer riding Motorcycles to Cycle bikes though, I find the techniques that you learn on the cycle bike, with some practice you can transfer over to motorcycle, I'd love to see Danny Mac have a try have on a moto trials bike Edited November 26, 2010 by Ben H!

I know Danny and he's had the odd shot of a bike and its not for him. I have a laugh when people think like that, if only it was true.

I see what your saying Gary, your probably right, was worth mentioning though, I only just realised your the Gary Mac as the scottish & expert A class champion, Are you still riding for Shirty next season?

isitafox Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 (edited) Used to compete in some local Manchester 17, Macclesfield and the odd Sheffield and Hallamshire trials about 10-15 years ago. Had a few gas-gas', couple of ty250 mono's and my favourite of them all which should never have been sold <BR><BR> Edited December 3, 2010 by isitafox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamKidney Posted December 19, 2010 Report Share Posted December 19, 2010 Only really recently got into it properly but have had part ownership on a few bikes, first was a 2003 GasGas TXT270, loved that second was a 2003 GasGas TXT327 loved that even more the third was a Beta Rev 3 250, but didnt get allong with that and sold it quickly, to fund the 2010 GasGas TXT250 Raga I have now, beaut and my 1999 Contac 3.2 GasGas 327. (Mega Power ) Find that my push trials has improved my mototrials no end, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
