Sorry, but, no, Al your bike is not in there

Shame. You didn't try to charge them for taking the pics though, did you?

Is it just me .... I invested the required number of beer tokens to secure a copy of the mag, and was kinda disappointed in the TRX stuff. Who are the forum members then ??? I don't recall seeing them before (except perhaps the NWS ally-framed missile)
Rubber side down, Red side up is my preferred riding style.

In order, we've got NWS, SDN, Dixonj, duno who & Gix ;)

Never seen or heard of a member owning an ex battle of the twins TRX... Some trick bits & looks kinda cool though bar the rear end & the fact that I'm not a fan of TRX figthers in general :lol:

Not a fan of the streetfighter look either. Has cost me a lot of time, money and effort removing all that "crap" and putting the original clip ons & fairings back on.

I think that should be NWS, SDN, one Jon Coote,Dixonj and Gix.

They are all very good looking bikes and a credit to their owners/creators,but,for modified bikes wearing 41Fcrs, I can hardly believe that only one had received extensive headwork :( .
