I think just me so far, but my entourage (lol) contains an Aprilia RSV Mille, A BMW S1000RR, a Triumph Sprint custom track bike thing, and the aforementioned fzr400 and CB500

Re: The TRX900 Project kicks off
Well the weather looks all right tomorrow. I changed the wheels back to Dry's last night and repaired the broken fairing stays, washed and polished.
Just booked for the whole day tomorrow, so so you all there.

Re: The TRX900 Project kicks off
They are still showing availability in all groups, plus you can always change. Then we can go round in formation!.
I do know my way round cadwell quite well as i have done about a dozen or more days there over the last few years. Once you get the lines up through charlies it will all fall into place.

Re: The TRX900 Project kicks off
hello all,
been a while since I did anything with my bike now, but my jobs for the winter is to clean, tidy, and paint the bike.
I've been umming and ahhing over paint schemes for ages now, so decided to take to photoshop to see what some of the designs in my head would look like (roughly)
so here is the original image:

so my first option in my head was white with a red frame, black swingarm:

wasnt keen on the red frame so went black:

quite liked that one. then went onto option 2 - red bodywork with a black frame:

I really liked that one. onto option 3. A homage to the yamaha M1 50th anniversary paint scheme:

its bold but it looks nice enough I think. I am going to do see what the same scheme looks like with the red and white inverted.

Howabout option 3 in a Kenny Roberts scheme (yellow/black) 
If everything seems under control
your just not going fast enough.

Re: The TRX900 Project kicks off
I like option 3.
Looks kinda familiar too...
viewtopic.php?f=42&t=4391
What kind of wheels have you fitted? R1? Looks cool.

Re: The TRX900 Project kicks off
Yeah I meant this one, Valencia 2005:

But I like all the Yamaha white, red and black anniversary models
With the TRX it is difficult to get the front and rear blocks in line.
It was not my preference but I decided to make it not on line with each other.
And I painted everything white, red blocks are stickers. Very easy and easy to change if you want.

Re: The TRX900 Project kicks off
Too many Yamaha bikes around with the speedblock homage paint scheme thing... Different is best (that's prob one if the reasons why you chose the TRX)... I'd go for black frame/red body!
