Tony,

Forget going back to stock TRX forks, change to early R1 forks, fit ZX6R springs and Robert is your fathers' brother.

Use Thunderace front wheel to retain mechanical speedo unit (same tyre size as the TRX). As you saw on that pretty little blue n white TRX that Andrea was riding, it just looks like it should have been done like from day one.







any excuse to post another tantalizing picture!

RIP STORMY - killed by careless driver Oct 2009

currently owned ....
1996 YAMAHA TRX850 gone away for little holiday with Andrea
1997 YAMAHA TDM850 which are obviously an acquired taste. I fink I'm starting to get it now.....
1998 DUCATI 748 ... one way of keeping an old man broke.
1999 YAMAHA Thunderace there is STILL no finer motorcycle
2008 SUZUKI Bandit 1250SA ...... fecked by yours truly, but ......... still fitted with the worlds most uncomfortable bike seat. ouch!
