A friend of mine in the west of Ireland is breaking a 1997 4tx (blue) some of the plastics are cracked and the head gasket is blown on the engine (or so he thinks anyway)
But almost everything else is there but some parts may be a bit rusty lol
If anyone in Ireland wants his phone number please pm me and I'll send it to you, not sure if he will post to the uk but worth a shot if your really stuck for a part
I viewed the bike today but nothing on it for me and it's too far gone to restore so maybe someone might need some parts from it
 
@Admin I hope this is ok if not please remove I was hoping it would help someone out :good:

Long shot, but...

Do you still have the 4TX Carb pair for available?

If so, how much are you looking for them? And would you be willing to post them to the uk?

Kind regards,

Just in case you're not aware, the '98 carbs are different to the '99-'01 carbs so make sure your bike is a genuine '99 before buying.
