Yamaha TRX850 Enthusiasts Forum

I got my trx for Three reasons,
one was to make it easyer to get to work in the london traffic.
two was so i could tour around Europe on the bike, a dream i have always wanted to acheive. to be experence the high quality winding roads and the fast freeways is a dream for a boy from New Zealand.

and the third is i have always wanted a TRX

Well it looks like i have run out of time, the bike broke down on tuesday, YAMAHA UK do not have a CDI unit that will fit the TRX japan bike. after 3 atempts to ride in europe i have given up. the first two attempts went out the window with the lack of funding issues i was having earler this year. I was ment to ride to munich on tuesday next week and was going to come home via chech, slovina, crotia, austria, swiss ,and the south of france. I have the cash but nobike this time. i have been working my ass off at my new job to fund the trip. 3 weeks in munich for beerfest then two weeks taking my time heading where ever i wanted just me and my TRX. my idea of heaven but with out the hot girl on the back. I have to go back to work when i get back, the weather is turning, and my visa to stay in the uk runs out in march and i have to return to the southern hemisphere for good.

It was just not ment to be. the motorcycle gods have delt me a nasty blow.

not happy

dont even want to look at the bike at the moment incase i kick it over i am that upset.

if any one has a english CDI and a set of english clocks and can get them to london before 11 am on tuesday when my bus leaves please help me out

please

or a Japanese CDI would be even better.

if any one is rebuilding a bike and can loan/rent me the one they are not using??

you would make a very sad man very happy if you can help.

oh no - I hope you get something sorted out

Pretty sure you will find that the UK CDI works on Japanese imports

if a tdm850 cdi is the same ( and i don't know ) i know were there is one its in a breakers in chorley tel 01257 234778 and hes open on sat


GOOD LUCK

Phuk

I rang mr young and he seamed to think that it would not work. but i am thinking you would be correct and it would be the other way around as the Japanese one needs the speed limit feed where the uk one dont.

steve cheers i was wondering this my self, can any one nswer this for me? can any one get the numbers off there english CDi for me so i have a refrence to go buy when i call this guy tomorrow.

PM the seagull (TonyDevil) ... he knows about TDMs ... or maybe check out the TDM forum in case there's any info there http://www.carpe-tdm.net/ipb/
