Practical Sportsbike Magazine

[Skybone]

Definitely a good read and some very tasty bikes.

Someone tell Gix to give us a wave when he gets up here!

Can't see the latest edition to the practical sportsbike magazine down under yet....waiting..

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)

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

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 .


Mark.

Probably get round to it at some point as I do have a spare head and could get a Kent grind on the cams, just need someone to port the head - any suggestions?

[sanddune51]

I always do my own. Probably mostly for the satisfaction of doing it myself. It really isn't difficult but has taken a long time to learn and practice the techniques involved.

These are some of the books I refer to time and again.



My own Trx has taken a back seat lately due to spending a lot of time working with my son on his Fzr600 including porting the head

.

Think perhaps it's something I might like to do (semi) professionally when I retire (in just under just under 10 years ).At the moment I just don't seem to be able to find the time to all things I want to do for myself.
Sorry I can't be more helpful in recommending someone to do heads.

Love all the bikes featured by the way.

Mark.

Can someone put up a scan for those of us not in the motherland?

...



Edit: that looks very good Mark. Noticed the gloves, very professional!
I've owned a FZR600 too.

Just picked that lastest copy of PS up from Asda, good read as usual, great to see TRXs being featured. All nice bikes but the 2 faired ones are my favs.

Bump? I am in the motherland but saw this too late. Any chance of some pics? Cheers
