TDM engine ?

Post by arcot1751 » Sat Aug 10, 2013 7:31 pm

Hi, Does anyone know if the TDM engine fits straight in to a N reg TRX using TRX ecu etc ? I ask because after travelling 50 miles on my new to me TRX the engine has blown and I am finding it difficult to find a replacement engine, I hope that maybe the TDM engine will be easier to source ? If I can't find one does anyone want a virtually mint bike with a running but noisey engine ?? £400.

Where are you? I would be interested in your bike if not too far away.

It has to be a 4tx engine and it doesnt go straight in but there are only a few small things to change
