Not for me! I can't outride my old Bultaco!

For my brother, he's currently thrashing his old Montesa 247 and regularly beating guys on modern bikes. He needs a newer trials bike to really do some whooping.

Unfortunately his budget is modest (about $1500). He'd really like a newer Montesa (i.e. mono-shock) but I don't know what those go for.

What do you guys have?

Dave before the 315 there was the Honda TLM 260 R many of the features were used for the 315, I have the Pentax version, it's a air cooled monoshock with disc brakes, I bought it for a collector for $3,000, and it sits gathering dust, has tital and honda workshop manual.
I went out and to see if it would start after a year or two being stood, good job I drained the fuel out back then, added fuel and started second kick, typical honda.
I would sell it for $1500 if you want to take a test doodle on it.

I sent the info to my brother. I'll let you know what he thinks. Thanks!

Not sure if he's going to want something newer (and probably a little more worn) but we'll see.
