I've ridden a handful of trials bikes. nothing too recent but I really really like the gas gas I rode. I think it was a around 175cc or something I dunno...it was a $6.5k bike. way fun tho. even an amatuer can do some pretty impressive stuff on that bike. also just about any aprilla is a killer ride too. not sure of sites but do a google search for gas gas or aprilla stuff and go for some links.
good luck

I have been to the Gas Gas sight. Had not yet come across Aprilla.
I'll look into that one too.

I like the Beta Alp, it's kind of a "dual sport" trials bike, but that just means it has a real seat and a larger tank.

Thanks for in advice.. Ill take a look. Realy do want a light weight balanced bike that is more trials bike made duel sport than a dirt bike made to be trials. How many years did they make the duel sport? As in, I would like to find a used one.

I'm not really too sure :rolleyes: but I think the Alp was always in their line up.....
I think the Alps use the "left-over" tech from the competion bikes.
