New toy

[Z06]

Picked up this used/new to me Montesa 4RT yesterday. Now I have to learn how to ride it. Most unfamiliar feeling motorcycle I have ever been on.

Now that looks like fun.

I guess making trailer hitches pays.


I really enjoyed having a trials bike, just wish I had somewhere close to ride it. That new gen bike looks like a blast.

Thinking about building a trailer to tow the trials bike. There is nowhere close to ride it, but it should be good exercise just learning to balance on it judging from first attempts in the yard.

Cool bike. You should bring it to Ludington this summer.

There is a guy around here who has around 60 Spanish bikes.
Saw a few of them at a local show. Bultaco, Montessa, Ossa......he had a bunch.
Guy is a member of SMOG (Spanish Motorcycle Owners Group).

Been invited over to see his full collection. Seeing your new piece of art may get me over there yet.

Don't get hurt on that thing!!

Oh my!
that is my next addition to the stable.
I'm loving my KTM xc 300, but a trail bike will really speed up the learning curve, and give you confidence you didn't know you had.

While the trials bike was my slowest ever, I always considered it to be the one I was most likely to get hurt on.

I have a 1972 Montesa 247 Cota, which I just restored. I have fallen off that bike more that all the other combined, but had loads of fun doing it. Amateur trials is a Blast. Have fun with that thing. Just dont wear a adventure helmet. ::021::
