V5 shows Green TRX as Blue - is this usual ??

Post by Norfolk Boy » Mon May 04, 2009 8:44 am

I just got the Docs through for my first trixie and it shows the bike as being blue, but she's definitely Green...

Somewhere in my mind I seem to remember reading something about this somewhere whilst I was re-searching the bikes. Is it usual, or has someone swapped the bodywork ??

Have you checked all the other bits on the V5? If the chassis number etc match then perhaps it has had a change of bodywork.

I saw an ebay ad' for one not long ago where the seller felt the need to mention the colour of the bike being green but the V5 stated blue ? Not many green ones about so might take a while for someone to confirm but I'm betting all the greens say blue on the log book. Either that or you bought the same one I saw on ebay !

TRX never came in green.

The OEM colour that looks like green is called Very Dark Blue Metallic, hence the V5 shows it as blue.

Yerp, there is no "mistake" on the V5. Yes, it is obviously green. Yes, Yamaha called it blue. :shock: :lol:
