Montesa Cota 301RR - trial means technique instead of speed.
A trial bike is built for one single skill: clearing obstacles at walking pace without putting a foot down. That is why a trial motorbike has hardly any seat, very little weight, extremely short gearing and an engine that pulls cleanly right from a standstill.
Montesa is the trial brand of Honda and has been leading the world championship for decades. At Honda Motorrad Zurich in Volketswil you get the current Montesa range new and used - the machines available right now are shown in the vehicle list on this page.
Trial trains balance, clutch feel and forward vision like no other discipline. Many riders therefore use a trial bike as a complement to motocross or enduro - the technique carries over directly to any other terrain.
Learning off-road riding technique - balance pays off everywhere
Off-road riding technique · MX Academy
Anyone who rides trial already brings what matters in any terrain: balance, clutch feel and a calm view ahead. The other way round, off-road training sharpens exactly these skills - and shows how to apply them on faster ground.
The MX Academy is the largest motocross and enduro school in Europe. Training takes place at the facility in Schlatt TG, which is listed as a NASAK sports facility in the national inventory of Swiss Olympic.

Montesa trial models - Cota 260, Cota 301RR and 4Ride
Montesa belongs to Honda and has been building the trial bikes that win world championships for decades. The range covers three clearly separated uses.
Montesa Cota 260 - the way into the sport of trial.
Montesa Cota 260 - the way into the sport of trial
The Cota 260 is set up good-naturedly and forgives mistakes. Anyone who wants to learn trial riding finds the right trial motorbike here: enough power for first steps and rock sections, but not as sharp as a competition machine.
Montesa Cota 301RR - the competition machine
The Cota 301RR is the trial bike for competition: more displacement, a more direct throttle response and a chassis designed for high steps and hard landings. The Race Replica additionally carries the works paint scheme and higher-grade components.
Montesa 4Ride - trial and off-road terrain in one
The 4Ride combines trial technology with a real seat and a larger tank. That makes it possible to ride off-road for longer stretches without giving up the agility of a trial bike - the bridge between trial and enduro.
Trial riding - technique instead of speed
Montesa 4Ride - trial technology with a seat and a larger tank.
Trial is not about lap times, it is about control. You ride standing up, at walking pace, over rocks, tree trunks and steps - putting a foot down costs penalty points. This trains balance, clutch and throttle feel more sharply than any other discipline.
That is exactly why many riders use a trial bike as training: the technique carries over directly to motocross, to enduro and even to the road. Whoever balances cleanly in trial rides more confidently everywhere.

Frequently asked questions about trial bikes
What is a trial bike?
A trial bike is built for clearing obstacles slowly: very light, without any noticeable seat, with extremely short gearing and an engine that builds clean drive right from a standstill.
What is the difference between trial and motocross?
Motocross is speed and jumps on a race track, trial is balance and technique at walking pace. A motocross bike has a seat and suspension travel for high speed, a trial motorbike has agility and control.
Which Montesa models are there?
The Cota 260 as the entry-level machine, the Cota 301RR as the competition model including the Race Replica, and the 4Ride, which combines trial technology with a seat and a larger tank.
Is a trial bike street legal?
Pure competition trial machines are not. Individual models can be registered - whether that applies to the machine you want is something we clarify with you before the purchase.
Can you learn trial as a beginner?
Yes, and it is one of the best schools for any motorcyclist. With the Cota 260 and some guidance the first steps come quickly - feel matters more than strength.
Are there new and used trial bikes?
Yes. New Montesa models are deliverable from stock, and used trial bikes keep coming in. The current stock is shown in the vehicle list on this page.
How often does a trial motorbike need a service?
Above all the clutch, the tyres and the brakes are put under heavy load in trial. We set the service intervals according to your actual use rather than by kilometres.
