Fightered TRX 850s

[ozkat]

I found a few pics of TRXs, seeing as there are few members here with them i thought you may like to see them. I had one a few years ago, and am thinking of getting another.

No mate the insurance money will go towards replacing the stuff that was stolen. I was only weeks away from having the long bike up ang running. But theiving cunts stopped that. Ive been looking at buying another bike for a few months now but honestly couldnt justify spending 15k+ on a toy. I reckon 5-7k on something a bit different would be the way to go. So im looking at stuff like TRX, TLS, Triumph, maybe RF900, even older Ducatis and Motards or maybe even another Katana. I havent decided yet.

Ooooooh that first one is nice.
I like the dirt bike rad shrouds and the colour scheme.

[alfiestorm]

Never again will i take the piss outa trx again those fightered ones look superb I think i would like to own the yellow one (second pic) with the rd inspired paint job.
I wonder if those puppies can be bored out to say a thou or maybe more

[rasper]

That last pic does look bloody sweet

[WATEVR]

i agree with u oz the last one is on the money.

[Ridgey]

these are probably the best example's of the TRX that i know of and some of the mod's ya can make to em,not fightered but if ya love bikes you'll appreciate them none the less[8D]

This is the bike which actually inspired me to go out and buy a TRX and modify it.:)

me too, i never knew what it was cause i could never find pics of it. very cool.

i think i like the first one the most, either that or the bike with the r6 upper fairing on it.

[T- REX]

wow those are some really tuff ones.. having own one myself and wondering wat else i can do to it... u just answered all my questions with those pics...

ive been told that the upside down front end is a bitch to do.. does anyone kno a good front end that will go well with a trx?

[barknmad]

G'Day T(hyphen)(Space) Rex,

Welcome to it all.
An R1 USD transplant is pretty straight forward (do a search of a TRX forum). I did mine by taking a complete '01 front, changing the steering stem over (the Rex one was arc sprayed and machined to the right size, bolt up. It drops the front by abount 40mm though. And while I was at it I got a new top clamp machined up for a set of MX bars. There is a way of keeping your front wheel, but that part is complex and needs a new axle.

I never really got into twins or triples. Maybe a screaming 4 just suits me,
maybe I just dont have the ability to swop from 4's to Twins (more likely).

The RF900 is a very under-rated bike. I like them.
I'd take one home today at the right price.

Katana ? What is there to say! A classic and endless possibilitys.

Busa's are getting cheaper ? Another older one with light damage should be cheap.
Makes life easy being able to chop and change parts betweeen bikes.
