  • Yea mud, and the actual flag positions. Sometimes it’s about forcing a particular line which is nigh on impossible after someone else has chewed up a hole in the hill.

    Ha… considering the shopping list a friend went through with a mid-00’s TXT Pro trials bike… maybe it’s the Gas Gas I’m avoiding more than the 2T!

    4RT/4Ride has different gearing yea. 4RT is better range they say.

    Apparently 4T trials bikes ride different to 2T, more difficult because none of the smoker overrun avoiding a stall.

  • Yeah more engine brake obviously but it's not a bad thing most of the time. Normally more grunt from the bottom is nice, although you know even a two stroke doesn't lack torque, but it's more linear delivery as they don't come on the pipe. I have ridden modern and pre65 2t and 4t and honestly I like them all. Pre65 4t takes the most adjusting to as they do have a lot of engine braking. You would be fine on any.
    Pre 03 gas gas are super reliable. As soon as they went to pro quality dropped then it picks up again in 07. I think Pampera might not have got the pro engine even though they ran to 05 so you should be sound with anything pre 05 on them.
