Re: Fuel Tank
There was a guy on here that put an XJ6 or fazer tank on his motarded TRX. Others might remember his name, i've forgotten
Looked ok I reckon. Hopefully someone can steer you to the thread. Good luck.

Re: Fuel Tank
I really like the TRX tank, its a lovely shape. not the classic cafe racer shape but I like the flat top on it.

Too true, not unlike the Ducati 851 can, wonder where the engineers came up with the Rex design.coxylaad wrote:I really like the TRX tank, its a lovely shape. not the classic cafe racer shape but I like the flat top on it.
I think the Ducati had an alloy one as well...hmmm
