6 sped gearbox - easily possible?
Hi guys, quick question, is there a gearbox that will swap straight into a trx850 with decent ratios and a 6 speed box? Or am i just dreaming too much?

I think it might be possible using the TDM 900. Not sure of the ratios and also no idea how difficult this could be. it is an avenue i will explore.
Before i start looking into it properly i need to get a spare engine to play with.

Over managed to get the YZF750 six speed box into their OV15-A racer (TDM based):

Is the YZF gearbox any better than the tarctor gearbox on the TRX? First always goes in with a crunch and it is way short of the slickest gearbox i have ever used.

Cheers guys!
Do we know if the yzf would be a straight swap part for part?
