Brought a little Gasser Friend home..

picked up a trials bike to add to the collection... not sure the 400 likes it much yet, but I give them both equal time..

looks little next to my 950..

pardon my messy shop.. just got done doing suspension on my 400 and 3 month rebuild of my 950 adv so well..

When I compete I'm running 100/1 for fuel. When I'm in the bush I bump it to about 80/1. I carry two 2lt plastic pop bottle on my back and go for a good tour. Legs get a bit sore from standing...but it sure is fun.

Congrats. Man they do look like fun but I'm not sure how long I can stand while riding LOL. Is there a seat option for these bikes or is it just stand all the time? I was going to tell you to enjoy but it looks like you already are.

yep, the best seat option i've found so far is the buttrest from the UK... trying to figure out how to order one and get it sent to the US..

I've seen them. It does look promising. Let us know if you do get one. I made one kinda like that years ago...have to try and find some old pics. I called it a banana.

ButtRest

Beta makes a external tank and seat but it's lots of $$

i managed to order up a buttrest from http://www.thehellteam.com/ Once it gets here I'll post up and let ya know how it works and fits.

got a few protection items to boot since it's already coming from the UK..

I saw that seat, tank combo, but dang, 500 for the setup.. spendy...

Cool thanks and I'll be looking for your report on the seat. I think I want pick up a trials bike to play on myself.
