Has anyone fitted one of these to a TRX? Is it possible to adapt the speedo drive to the R6 wheel/axle?
Will the rear shock fit with Kayla's adaptor? If so I have got one for sale....

99 r6 so is that rsu style forks just 43 mm with cartridges not damper rod like the std Trx?
Sandunes51 has done this with early model r6 forks and I'm pretty sure he machined out the 41mm std TRX tripple trees to accomidate the forks.
06 onwards R6 rear shock is needed so your 99 rear shock is a no go.

You may be able to use the std trx wheel and axle just modded to fit .
Check out cobba's rebuild thread and you can see the axle mod I used to fit the TRX front wheel and axle into R1 forks..
Just be careful when you tighten the axle the speedo drive doesn't spin or a tiny weld to locate it on the fork bottom. I have an idea Brett chose this method on his r1 conversion.
May just have to jossle spacer sizes and space the calipers to get it true and centred.
