Yamaha TRX850 Enthusiasts Forum

As most, or at least some of you would know, I just bought a Suzuki TL1000R, I know, I know, Blasphemy right ??!! Anyway I've been having trouble selling the TRX; probably because it's the start of winter here, but it's still annoying because it's a great bike, and it deserve's to be ridden, not sat in my shed. Ok I had a few beers tonight and something stupid my dad said made me think; hey why not, a trx could make a good sidecar outfit!!!? To my defense it has been done before!

Whats your thoughts? Should I keep trying to sell it, or do something ridiculous (but possibly fun!)?

unless you need to sell it, keep it IMO, make it your own.

NNOOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

WTF did they nick the front wheel off a car?

Dave E

wel it doesn't need to lean and car tyres are a hell of a lot cheaper and last longer. Why would you not? Common on proper trike/side car conversions.

Keep it for the track Kirk, you won't regret it.

Kirk I've had sidecars for a few years and done big miles , if I wanted another car it would have to be shaft ,1000 cc and have cowboy bars , put the rex on the track and join us

Yeah youse are probably right. And a dedicated track bike could be cool, I already have a set of glass fairings too!

WOOOO pics of you on the track now.

saying that, that side car is fairly impressive.

Anyone know what the legalities in AUS are for sidecars ? anyone link some info..

No, im not going to make one, i just want to learn.. im curious.. As i never see em.

The sidecar picture has a NO and a YES to me.

NO..... in a way it's hiddious

YES.... for someone who wants a REX with a sidecar


What to do with a 'left alone in the dark spot in the shed' REX..... turn it in to a racer and GO!!
