What rearsets will fit the TRX

Post by Terzikat » Sat Jun 28, 2008 1:58 pm

Does anyone know what rearsets will fit a TRX?

There are loads of used R1 R6 etc rearsets on e-bay but never any used TRX ones. Does anyone know which ones will fit from another model of bike.

Looking to save some money (so tight I squeek when I walk) :shock:

You can have it as a homework to take measurements TRX vs. R1 etc.
I have to say early R1 looks very similar....



....so cheap you´ll cry when taking a dump then?? :lol: :lol:

ThunderCat, ThunderAce, FZR600R, YZF750 are all the same rearset fitment. The gear linkage rod is not the same length though.

MAX.............if you are out there...can you shed some light on what rearsets might fit a trx from off a modern bike (e.g. do R1 or R6 rearsets fit) :?:

He isn't online very often. Maybe better to send a PM?

I'm also interested in what rearsets will fit though.
Edit: and if I look at the number of views of this topic, I don't think we are the only ones. :shock:

Max has some lovely custom rearsets that he was selling.

Alternatively you could get some adaptor plates made and fit anything you like.

From what i can tell the dimensions on later Yam bikes are different to the TRX generation bikes.
