Thanks everyone for the positive feedback, and of course NWS your bike still reigns the coolest on the planet, so getting a pat on the back from you means a lot. I love your alloy frame that will never be surpassed. =D>

On to the next one :D

That's abso-friggin-lutely gorgeous!! After you showing your underseat ignition I went and purchased the same. Just wondering how you ended up fixing the issues you came across - any piccy's of that??
Understeer - when you hit the fence with the front of the bike.
Oversteer - when you hit the fence with the rear of the bike.
Horsepower - how fast you hit the fence.
Torque - how far you take the fence with you.

Hi Mate, use this one,, I threw the first one in the bin. This one has the correct switching for a TRX, however I had to buy it to find that out, as no one has a clue on ign switching! :lol:

Well took the TRX out for a spin today, a few adjustments and to change a couple of small things, but overall she is a good thing and gives me good attitude...ha,ha :wink:
Gotta love that exhaust crackle on the down change.

these bikes tend to adopt you rather the other way..theres also the bragging rights..none of your mates have one of these bikes....and as they dont cost heaps, its about how you did it ,instead of how MUCH you spent..which accounts to lots of COOL..tell me the feed back from the rear disc pls..pulls up ok?
