    Trials bikes for kids

    Hey Y'all
    I would really like to get my wee boy off the dirtbike & onto a trails bike for a change of pace & to help him develop his skills, can anyone give me any advice of who to get in contact with & where to start him off? he is already a demon on his 70 but I want him to upskill as opposed to going like a cut cat. We are located in norwest Auckland

    Great Idea to improve skills,

    their is no Trails shop in auckland that i know of, I know of one in Blenhiem, and i think their is one around Paraparaumu as well I think,

    you could try talking to the Birch's as they were into trails as well,

    i know their are some trials events around the Onewhero area but i don't know what club it was, ring Matthew at Mr Motorcycles as he and his family were into trials and they had events on there property, he will be able to put you in touch with the club that ran them

    Those trials are either done by Hamilton MC, or the CMCRR for Twinshocks.

    I'm looking for a trials bike for my 10 year old to learn on too - most of the major manufacturers do 80cc variants, but not many find their way to NZ by the looks of it

    The Osets look like a good alternative, and have proven to be fairly reliable in Europe - supposedly the next batch should be in NZ by mid this month, so may have a look then.
