  • Although I learned to ride off-road at age 5, trials is something I've never done before. The physical aspect, the puzzle aspect of each section and the fun of just being on a bike lead me here. Wasn't looking for a new bike, but this deal was too good to pass up!
    Completely stock, let's have some fun on a steep learning curve. See if this old dog can learn some new tricks.

    I love trials ! I started when I was about 11 years old and now I am 60 years old ! I have a wide range of motercycles ! Trials taught me more about riding a bike that any other bike ! I still have a CR 500 ,2 450 4 strokes and a cr 250 ! I am looking for a new trials ! There nothing like it !

    I also have a ‘23, traded off my ‘22 on it. I have absolutely no regrets in doing so. I’m subscribed to twowheelgeriatric and really enjoy his content. Your overview was very well done, looks like I’m adding another subscription.

    I hated the way the clutch line snapped as well. I just used a zip tie to move it away, but now I'll do the permanent fix with the Dremel. Looking forward to seeing some trials videos!

    Hello watched your video, thanks for posting. I am in Australia and I have the identical bike new. Just wandering what is your mix ratio and do you have an issue with the engine returning to idle very slowly. Not talking about 'running on' so much but mine seems to take it's time getting back to idle. Like you I just love this bike. It's a new adventure for me, first Trials bike. Have you posted a further video after riding it for a while? Thanks again

      I run 1.5% mix as per the manual. Seems to work well. There are a couple more videos on my channel, one about gearing that made a big difference for me on this bike. Enjoy :)

    Great choice, non of your sherco/scorpa nonsense

      lol, thanks. I might have considered the new Sherco/Scorpa, but it would never be at the price I got the GG for. The more I learn about it, the more I’m loving this TXT!

    What brand of trials helmet did you buy? I am having a hard time finding one in the US.

      I couldn’t find any here in Canada either. And being Canadian also means I’m used to not getting free shipping, so I ordered a Hebo from the UK. One week for delivery, but I knew my size to take away that risk.
