chris_dh Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 Sorry for the motorbike content but I'm sure theres a few people on here that ride both bike and motorbike trials.Used to ride a montesa 314r about 6 or 7 years ago but didn't even have the internet back then so never got into the forums etc.Now I'm wanting to get something fairly cheap but have no idea where to look or what to look for.Really wanting to go for cheap and easy to maintain. CC isn't really an issue but at least 125.Anyone got any pointers of bikes, places to try 2nd hand etc.Also if anyones selling anything that might interest me drop me a line.CheersChris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basher Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 Buy the weekly magazine trials and motocross theres loads of 2nd hand bike in there. Only thing i would say is be prepair to walk away from a bike and keep looking if need be dont get the first one you see becuase your desperate to get back into it.

Muel Posted May 28, 2007 Report Share Posted May 28, 2007 You have had a montesa so you will know how reliable they are, they are still very popular bikes.I have a 88 TY250R, maybe thats a bit old for you? They cost around £700 for a really nice one. Not sure how much montesa's are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gas Gas best bike to ride. "Has been proved". Shitley built. Sherco good and well built, Montesa amazingly built but heavy as F##k, Beta ok to ride well built. Get a Gas Gas.
