Unmodding exhausts
New TRX owner in Melbourne looking for some stock exhaust cans to get through RWC. If anyone has some they could lend out, sell or swap me for some de-baffled raucous ones then please let me know. Alternatively, might beed to look for aftermarket pair.

Hi Dsanty!
First, a heartily welcome to the forum from me - have fun here as well as in the real world!
Then, as I'm not exactly in your neighbourhood, I'm sorry but I can't really help you with some stock or roadworthy aftermarket cans - but maybe davamb here has an idea?
Welcoming greets from Munich!

Re: Unmodding exhausts
Thanks. Got a few issues with this 27 year old.
Front brakes are terrible. Brake master cylinder feels notchy and zero feel. I bought the bike cheap - maybe this is one of the reasons. I’ve cleaned up one caliper so far but it’s not perfect. One more to go before I bleed them and see if that fixes it otherwise I think it’s worth upgrading them.
Do the calipers from ANY YZF R1 98-02 fit straight up?

Hi Dsanty!
Fitting so-called "blue spots" from R1s or other Yamahas is a very common mod.
That said, also Yamaha calipers with gold or silver eloxated "screws" fit.
And yes, the are plug and play - maybe need only fitting standard washers between the fork and the calipers for exact center position.
And for a better feel also attach the pertaining master cylinder - or even a radial operated one.
If you are interested, I can look up the size that others have fitted.
