Quick question, size cost adjustments on pg 246 says gear for troll is 10% additional cost due to their size. It mentions mostly physical gear such as clothing, weapons, AR, and cars. Does this include cyber and bio ware at creation? And after creation? Thank you for your time and input! Cheers runners :)

Yes, it applies to anything that is listed in the "Gear" section, which unfortunately includes the cyberware and bioware. This can be explained by both the items having to be much larger (like cyberlimbs) or how much more time it takes to cut through and operate on a troll body (internal cyberware, bioware). Trolls really pay for their natural armor and high body max.

It applies all the time. For cyber/bioware, just remember that you can get "Used" grade 'wares for half the cost. So a 30,000¥ item becomes 15,000¥ (50% used) becomes 16,500¥ (10% metatype cost adjustment). And unless you plan on stacking on the 'wares, the extra 10% essence loss shouldn't be a problem.
