Yamaha TRX850 Enthusiasts Forum

Hi there guys.

i hear it through the grapevine that there might be a feature/featurette on the TRX in Practical Sportsbike magazine in the near future.

also, (and i'm a bit out of the loop here) there may also be one in Classic Bike magazine (or maybe there just was one recently). this second one i'm really not sure about. but it might happen.


where does this come from? well, i actually own the bike they used for the photoshoot. so keep your eyes on the magazine racks over the next couple of months.

According to the June edition of Practical Sportsbikes, there will be a 15 page road test and buying guide in the July issue. This will pit the TRX against the 900SS Ducati and 750S Laverda in a "sports twin showdown"
PS is a great magazine, so much more relavent than the other plastic fantastic crap!
For those with a dual interest (like me) there is a 6 page TDM feature in the latest edition of Ride too

I remember that 3 way test from about 10 years ago in Performance bikes.

I've noticed this before: Practical seem to run the same articles as PB did from 10 yrs ago!

/geek mode on/ I think you'll find that PB's 3rd bike was an SV650 /off/
