Yamaha TRX850 Enthusiasts Forum

My 96 model TRX has just passed the 75 000 km milestone.
The bike has had two previous owners and still purrs and starts first - second time every day. What would usually be worth looking out and checking at mileage like 75 000? Are there any major things that I should look at checking or replacing at this stage?

Thanks in advance guys

I would just give it a thorough service.

Oil, filter, air filter, plugs, coolant, brake fluid and obviously inspect the brakes and bearings.

Balance the carbs.

I would also do a valves clearance check to see if the intake valves are closing up.

With 75,000 km I wouldnt expect any major issues. The bottom end should be fine and the cam chain and head are likely ok. The only thing I would potentially expect is closed up intake valve clearances

Does it use oil?

That's good to hear. I've done all those things Con Rod (aside from plugs). I'm pretty sure my mechanic has balanced the carbs on a recent service and done valve clearances too.

It doesn't use much oil which I change it every 1000 + Ks. She'll be going strong for a while longer I hope

Cheers for the info!!
