stubb111 Posted April 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2018 not sure of add ons yet....I have only rode it the driveway once, waiting for snow to melt here and work to slow up a bit. I have a very helpful dealer sort of close by who is going to send me an email on some suggested add ons, not sure what bike has on it right now, I do know it has a s2 head not sure much else at the moment. where is best place to find accessories for the bike.....thanks for help and suggestions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2stroke4stroke Posted April 1, 2018 Report Share Posted April 1, 2018 If it is a fully equpped standard bike then there should be no need for "add ons". Better to concentrate on the change in technique required to ride a trials bike than what gewgaws to spend money on. Once you have some experience you will be better placed to judge whether or not the bike has any deficiencies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauls320 Posted April 1, 2018 Report Share Posted April 1, 2018 I am not familiar with the hand guards your considering. One thing to consider is if they are the full loop type,the potential of your hand /arm being caught in them during a spill can result in some Nasty bodily damage...it quite common..

section swept Posted April 1, 2018 Report Share Posted April 1, 2018 (edited) It’s a Trials bike not a rip snorting super motard. Just how many trials TRIALS bike have you seen with full hand guards??? Even Carl Fogarty only used them once and that was to stop other riders yanking his brake lever on, that don’t happen in trials. Save your hard earned ????and ride the bike to find out what you really need. We have a saying here in UK it is this....”All the gear and no idea”. No disparaging remarks intended against you, but you are heading that way?????? Edited April 2, 2018 by section swept Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
section swept Posted April 1, 2018 Report Share Posted April 1, 2018 5 hours ago, oni nou said: Take the throttle that has a bearing off and fit one that does not have one ...problem solved......Trials motorcycles have their own equipment manufacturers not connected to Moto-X stuff like pro taper Domino throttles are the ones that are mainly supplied OEM....... RYP shercousa.com will be able to supply what you need. Will you be adding a nose fairing and belly pan Don’t forget rearsets and clip-ons! Oh and louder power sapping exhaust!

Don’t forget the gold toe capped Alpine Stars boots and the super lightweight knotted handkerchief head wear! Helmets are so last year and the riders clobber is sooo important.
