Yamaha TRX850 Enthusiasts Forum

Hello folks
Does anyone know if the front mudguard from any other bikes fit my TRX without modification to the standard fittings? I've managed to damage my mudguard on a red TRX and finding it difficult to track down a replacement so just wondering if the TRX shares its front end with anything else that I can also do a search on. Or if you have a red TRX mudguard going spare then please let me now!
And, now that I've fitted some streefighter bars I find I am constantly looking at my elbows in the mirrors. Has anyone fitted any mirrors that are longer than standard? Again, as for the mudguard question above, I want to make use of the standard 2 hole fitting on the faiiring and sub frame; all I want is for mirrors to be about 10cm wider on each side.
Any advice is gratefully received.
Regards
Hugh

Hello Hugh. I see you are located very near to me (Redditch). I have asked both these questions before so to save you searching I will post links to both threads coz I'm good like that.

Might be something of use to you in that lot ?

Well I do not know if it will fit straight, but I was planning to fit a front guard from a 748 to mine. I even purchased the original Ducati guard mounting brakets (requiring only minor modification - grinding down the locator you see on them in the pictures).
I was hoping it would fit and I do not see why it shouldn't, but then again it has not been placed on a completed front-end....YET!

Let me know how you get on with the Ducati mudguard Schmiffee. I won a 748 front a few months back & was planning on doing the same thing but the seller messed me about so I haven't bothered looking for another. Be interested to see how easy/hard it is to fit.

You could get some mirror extenders knocked up by a local machine shop, just use the the base of the mirror as a template and ask for a couple of ally blocks to be made up to the thickness you want. Failing that, do it on the cheap and just use a stack of washers and longer bolts.

edit- you could probably make some spacers yourself out of 1/4" ally plate.
