Yamaha TRX850 Enthusiasts Forum

Cafe Racer ready to go, bike is on the road and very happy with the kit from Ian Smith.It took about 6hr to to install.
Great work by Ian and the guys every thing is of very high quality.

Do I see an Ossa lurking in the far left of that picture? Rare beasties these days!
Where in the world are you sliderman? I like the look of the fairing on the TRX, had thought of going the Duke 900SS fairing route look one day myself.

That does look very cool, I have a bit of a soft spot for cafe racers

who is making the seat and fairing for the Trx. If you want you can Check his work out just type in trx 850 caferacer and

Ah yes Twig, he IS a member and has posted a fair amount about his kit on this forum, as have others who have used his stuff for their own cafe racer builds.

Love the round headlight.

That round head light works much better than the original, and the bar end mirrors give a clear unobstructed view, I was quite surprised how well they work. Will Post some better pics of the rest of the bike soon.

Love the look of the rex bud, looks like it was made that way from the start...especially in black. Top work.

Some more pics of the cafe racer. Cheers Sliderman

Yep thats quite pretty.

Needs some cone type silencers though to finish it off.
