IIRC, isn't your grip on a trials bike is 'sposed to be light?Laoch wrote: Wed May 25, 2022 8:21 am Last Sunday I did a bit of DS riding, followed by ST and a bit of hard enduro shit mixed in (long story) on my Husky. The amount of "issues" I experienced with my hands was significantly less than I had after a couple of hours on the trails bike. I gotta guess it's because I can sit down and not have to maintain a constant grip. So, yeah. Maybe a seat for my Montessa? I need to look at the grips too. I have sweet Odi Rouges on the Husky. Super nice.
Change of focus??

Ordered some a set of Ourys
Ken I usually trail ride that thing so a light grip isn't always possible.

Since grips have been brought up I'm not going to jack this thread but start a new one.

Here we are again. Now we have 4 grandkids and one due this month for 5. Yikes.
My thumb is all healed. Good thing.
I have done zero trials riding in the last few months. I did attempt, but I need to clean the carb and that’s as far as I got. I haven’t been on the Husky since forever. It is running good now. I got a new seat for the GS, hopefully I will get some saddle time. I’ve been on the GS the most in the last year.
I did help out a lot with DVTR events. Non riding stuff. My oldest grandson likes camping, we have two trips planned this fall. Sitting here watching soccer practice. Games most Saturdays.
I think I forgot how to ride.
Should I sell my Husky? I keep thinking I’ll have time, but I haven’t been on it for a solid 18 months. IDK. Is the market good? Maybe since Penndot is laying down the hammer it’s a good time to sell?

Market appears to be going soft. Looks like a lot of good deals to be had recently. If the economy goes further south prices will go down farther.
