Re: under bike exhaust
That looks brilliant Bob, you should go into production on those. I'd have one for sure. What was the final cost if thats not to rude

Re: under bike exhaust
Yep, really nice bit.
I still wonder what mine will be like.
Haven't done much work on it lately...

Re: under bike exhaust
cleaned up the headers with 1200 wet+dry , fitted the over flow for the radiator then gave the bike to my son to test ride so I could hear the sound . Take off from a standing start , sounds as loud as any trx with a pipe, acelerated to a constant 60 kph and went past me the bike was very quiet , did the same for 80 , 100 with the same result . On a constant throttle the pipe is not a law attracting note . Hard take offs and the pipes no louder than my over system . The sound is very good , makes me smile thinking about it . The power feels good as well , the bike runs to red line similar to the over pipe . So far very happy with the look and sound . Any ideas on how I can clean up the small screen , that has always looked sh-t to me . I'm thinking the bike will probably be painted all grey or black and polished alloy , remove all yamaha signs and keep the bastards guessing Does anyone have a black tank cover same as mine ( red ) they want to swap or is there a way to change the colour of mine . The evolution continues
catch ewe later bob

Re: under bike exhaust
Rocket ind do VHT., in the range is a VHT vinal/fabirc die. i have used it on a few roof linings my self and have always been happy with the result. I also sold alot of it. a couple of guys swore be it and used it to re do intire interers oncars and a couple of guys brought it to re colour vinal on boats, it may be worth a try.it comes in jet black and saturn black
you may want to grab some red vinal and try it out first but it may be worth a go if no one has one you can swap with

I have a black tankcover for a Bagster, and am willing to change with You, guess it comes down to costs for P&P, as we're world's apart...

Re: under bike exhaust
Looks fantastic. The headers have come up a treat..... spose I better get the wet + dry out myself now.......
I can see what you mean about keeping people guessing about what the hell sort of bike it is, certainly masks the fact that is a TRX vey well.
