Yamaha TRX850 Enthusiasts Forum

saw this "item" on ebay, wondered if anyone can shed any light on it, as I don't recall the TRX having a fuel sender unit (mind you, its been a while since I've seen mine, let alone ridden it!)

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/YAMAHA-TRX850-TRX ... 240%3A1318

best I can come up with is its from a TDM850 (late model?)

It's not a stock TRX part

I saw it too,just assumed that the home market(Japanese)models might have been fitted with a fuel guage.

its defo for a late tdm ,, the seller could be on drugs

but he claims to be breaking the whole bike and has 20 years experience!!!!!

Seller has just replied to my enquiry, and confirms it is for a TDM and not a TRX........ somehow I'm not 100% convinced ..... I thought the TDM sender had a square base.

Oh hum....

Nope. Mine's just got the bum basic on/off/res tap like all the rest.

Who needs a guage anyway,gadgets just create more work when they develop a fault.
Opening a tank cap,peering in and rocking a bike is the age old method and I`m more than happy with that.
