Yamaha TRX850 Enthusiasts Forum

I had a similar problem with my trx, and it turned out to be the combination of thunderace swing arm and stock length dog bones.

btw where do you get booked on to do a track day at Assen? I have looked and cant find anywhere that does them.

You plan to come to Assen?! Please let me know when you do!
I work with these guys, but the trackdays on Assen are mainly for beginners.

There sure are enough, you have to know where to find them I guess:

https://www.racecracks.nl/Pages/Events/
https://www.circuitschool.nl/
https://trackdays4all.com/

There are also German organisations who come to Assen.
You have to book on time, far in advance, because Assen is very popular.
Let me know if you need any help, like translating or so.

its a track I would like to do at some point.

living in the north east of England I am not actually that far away from the circuit once I am off the ferry.

Cadwell Park, hairpin: http://www.ronketti.org.uk/cadders.jpg

Ludicrous hanging off antics, trying to keep the pipes off the ground. Safe to say that the tyres [1] were never once troubled by this kind of thing - the only slide I had was me being a twonk with the throttle coming out of Barn.

There must be an apex somewhere there

I prefer to follow the path less travelled

But there must be a really good reason for me being that far away from the apex. No idea what it is right now though!

Edit: oops that's a bit big

Taken at Oschersleben in 2015 - Race-TRiXie with mild tuning (86 hp at the wheel), CBR 600RR front (fork with wheel and brakes), FZ1000 swing arm and 675 Daytona fairing parts.

Inclined greets from Munich!

WHAT ARE YOU...

Race-TRiXie ... and 675 Daytona fairing parts.

Oh.


I like Oschersleben, it suits the TRX well. I should go there again some time, it's been a while.

Hi Tarwetijger!

We will be in Oschersleben again next week

My favourite corner there is the triple left - a feeling and looking like someone pulled the track beneath your tires to the left, then to the right and to the left again

But the smaller tracks suit me even better e.g. Franciacorta (Italy), Ecuyers, Chambley and Ledenon* (all France) or Schleiz (Germany).
* my favourite track: up an down like a roller coaster and nearly every corner is blind

Rhapsodizing greets from Munich!

Lookin good Robert...

Thanks. Felt good too, so much better than last year. It's all between the ears!
Onboard footage (I'm the one filming, obviously). Unfortunately it did not record the (lovely) sound.
