  1. Hi all, new here. I have ridden trials on and off for 30 odd years. I am a a capable rider that rides clubman or 50/50. I have ridden my trusty 05 Scorpa SY250 since I got it new in 05 and I loved it. Recently I decided to treat myself to a new bike and I got an as new TXTR 250. I got it in a drier period a few weeks back (6) and instantly loved it. However, I have ridden it many times in trials and my results are disasterous to the point of being embarassing! I just spin it up and stop all the time. I have fitted a slow throttle which has helped but I am still crap on it. I am down to about 3pounds in the rear. I during the last lap at Stokenchurch on Sunday (muddy) I resorted to using first gear everywhere which semed to help. I was using second as I have done on my Scorpa for years but to no avail. I am thinking of using a low comp head insert and or flywheel weight. Any ideas? My mate has a mint 05 SY250 which has hardly ever been used and I am seriously considering buying it off him and selling the Gasser, Is it just me? I know the Scorpa is known for amazing levels of low end grip and torque. Bust surely the Gasser should be fine for me... This thing has shattered my confidence. I was 8th out or 9 clubmen on Sunday and thats not what I am used to!!
