production mods ?
Hi all.
does anyone know what kind of modifications were made during TRX production years. I know only one:
- 1st gear ratio change to lower 1998 (?)

Re: production mods ?
I'm not aware of any changes to gear box ratios.
IIRC, the only change was to valves.

Some differences between early Japanese spec bikes which were 1995/6 imported to UK and Oz when compared to later models (CDI, KPH speedo, softer forks??) but thats about it afaik.

Re: production mods ?
Japanese spec have Brembos o/c, and I think the Japanese bikes also didn't have the little black plastic fork slider protector thingy. Could be wrong though - read that in a mag a while back but don't have a '95 to look at.trixynut wrote:Some differences between early Japanese spec bikes which were 1995/6 imported to UK and Oz when compared to later models (CDI, KPH speedo, softer forks??) but thats about it afaik.

AFAIK there were no official changes to the Euro spec machine in its life time (only by those Engineers on here).

The left over jobbies they didnt sell in 1999 here in Aus they offloaded in 2000 as the mellenium model with it labelled as such on the fairing. But same bike just with a new label stuck on them..
