Bigpops Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 I hate it when people film me without permission! My son and I saw one of these guys at a bike show. He bunny hopped the entire bike over a guy laying down and then proceeded to climb a series of cement pipes. It was unreal! The throttle/clutch control is awesome.

SmittyFL Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 That's not even a practical motorcycle. Riding like that would get you killed on the street. Sure he's good but if I had equipment like that I could do it to. I'd like to see him try that with a real bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aircooled6racer Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Hello: The trials guys have been doing that for over 40 years. I had a Honda TL-125 and a Bultaco Serpa T and could do some of that stuff but not all. The 2 stroke was much harder to ride than the 4 strokes. I remember riding a 1978 Suzuki RM-400 when I was only 105lbs It was a rocket! I liked the 250's better. Oh, the smell of a 2 stroke oil and the engine at full song. Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron Ankeny Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Back in the late 1970's a friend of mine (Ed Anderson) was a big name in the trial's circuit in the Rocky Mtn. Region and along the west coast. Ed was amazing, but the guy in the video, holy cow...he's good. World class no doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokshwn Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 James, Here's a link that works to some Danny McCaskill footage. I posted it a few months ago in what I like....it is humbling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Lord Gomer Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 So you think you can ride! Well....I *used* to think that! I have to admit, though, even though I might not have quite the ability, I make up for it with my keen fashion sense... My mechanic getting my "Montesticle" ready... (There's a *long* story there, but I'm not telling it for less than 3 beers!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JThompson Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 (edited) You have to like guys that take something simple as riding and make it into an art. Fine art boys... ride on. JT Edited January 12, 2010 by JThompson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Pulp Fiction) I should have been more specific with the thread's title. It's not a motorcycle, it's a Trials bike. be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like you said, with a 125 pound rider it was scary, super, ungodly fast. Holy Crap, I can still feel it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-JQ- Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 It is a trials motorbike...not trials bicycle...Ot Pi from the famous Pi family (Trials family) is credited for the crossover...and yes they pull the same amazing stuff. One of the best moves I saw was a bunny hop sideways onto 7 pallets. Guy rode up, stopped next to them and just hopped up from the side, not front end up like guy on motor-bike. Google Hans "no way" Rey... +10 to you Lord Gomer...GasGas? Great link tho Brian! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDave Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 (edited) YouTube- Roam, Trials Portion, Ryan Leech One of my favorites. The train track was a first take. Edited January 13, 2010 by BigDave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya big sissy, you should have tried the TM400 for a truly frightening motocross experience!!! Big, ugly, tankslapping beast looking for an excuse to toss you onto the ground and stomp on you. Guys riding trials bikes are spectacular to say the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Lord Gomer Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 ...GasGas? That was a Montessa that belonged to a friend from Austin. That was my first time ever riding a trials bike. I lost a race with a much better rider on a much lesser bike and that was my "payment". I got beat on my CR250 by AJ Waggoner (the guy who builds all of the AF500s for Service Honda in Chicago) and he was riding a TTR125! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
