The Montesa is the bike I saw a cool seat + long range tank for a while back.

Gas Gas has a trick Raga Replica that's worth checking out as well–gold tubular frame, gold magnesium crankcases, etc.

Derek, check out the new OSSA for a crazy trials motor and forward thinking design - 2 stroke injected 250cc. Vertical fuel throttle body, fuel in front down tubes, central radiator, rearward facing exhaust port, and rearward slanting barrel. Try this link.

Yeah, it’s been back. See the Montesa Cota R-4. Amazing chassis. Even crazier motor!

Finally! I’ve been waiting forever for this bike. I’ve found various long range kits in the past, including an especially cool kit for a Montesa, but they were only available in Europe (in extremely limited quantities). I finally got a long range tank on my Gas Gas a few years back.

The best thing about trials bikes is that they negate the need for trails–you get to experience something new every ride. And also the fact that they are perfectly balanced.

Thanks for posting this find!

Yep, trials is back in a big way. And there is no better way to get into it than on a Scorpa with a long range kit!
