I want to get back into riding, and all my freinds have like WR or YZ 400's 426's..

I do not want one..
I can ride them if I need to, what I want is a TRIALs bike type motorcycle

Is there such thing as a trials, that has a real seat, has super low gearing, normally associated with trials bikes, but with a high gear that'll do fifty or so?

I still want it to be 4-stroke, and trials-light, mainly this will be slow slickrock riding, with some 20- mile trail rides!

anyone know where to get info?
think Gas Gas makes such a thing?

P.S. My name is really Moab Austin, someone won't give me my password.

Try www.gasgas.com (http://www.gasgas.com) for the Gas Gas trials page..I think the Pampera is what you are looking for. As a Gas Gas owner (a 2001 XC200 and 2001 MC250) I can say the build quality is excellent...I want a trials bike tho!

Sounds like you might want to look at a honda fat cat. They are like a quad/dirtbike. My friend used to have one, and it was wicked fun. It was great for muddy trails, hillclimbs, everyting. It does have an auto clutch, which isnt the best, but you can't have everything. It was a 200 4-stroke, and wicked comfy to ride with the big tires. Unfortunately honda doesn't make it anymore, but you may be able to find some used ones around.
