Nice. I'll post a pick of my brother and his friends choppers they build. One with a zx9 motor the other with a fzr1000.

TRX motor is a very nice motor to use for this...just not mine!

Well, as a piece of engineering and an exercise in what can be done, I think it's great! =D>

I can tell there's been a load of care and skill gone into it: think the 'progress' photos on your link on your post explain it nicely.

As for if its to my own taste.... :?

It has three nicknames

The TREX

The TReXtor

And ThundeRX (The Thunder Horse)

It shakes like a TRX

It would look great with Angelina Jolie on it

It must still be one LOL

You know that bum pad that wears out on the tailpiece?

Not the one you sit on, the one that stops you from sliding off...

Now I know why it wears out :-)

Give it a handful and it is all about holding on for dear life.

LOVE those frames. Shove a twin in that and it would be absolutely perfect.
