    I doubt I'll ever take my old KT near compitition, as my sence of balance is real crap, Ive got to rebuild the front forks and replace the rear shocks, also recover the seat, i liked the Idea of being able to have a lot of fun in a small space, i got a couple of large boxes of spare parts with my KT, looks to be a spare motor and a half, there is also a local guy who makes spare parts for KTs and sells them on the net.

    You know that answer. But you can spend all day, and I mean ALL day on a trials bike playing/practicing for threepence ha'penny and a ham sandwich. Skills learned in trials carry over too, most pro enduro riders practice on trials bikes LOTS, and a lot of track dudes have trials on their CV.
    Go soothingly on the grease mud, as there lurks the skid demon

    No worries, as long as you are enjoying your study of course.
