A whole lot of hours and even more in Euro`s has gone into that but it`s a compromise, I believe it`s ended up as having a longer wheelbase than a stock TRX which means less flickable.
To be honest I much prefer Yellowrider`s VERY nice SZR660. :wink:

It's 5cm longer than the original but the front 1 degree change, he is riding very well :D

Now I have ridden for more than 1000km and I miss only the horsepower :wink: (I've ridden a RSV Mille)

+1 :)

Especially like the TR1. Only ever saw two of them.I always thought they had a lot of potential but seem to recall reading about reliability issues back in the 80's. (similar to much publicised VF750 cam/cam chain issues)
Could have been a Vincent or Hesketh for the 80's but seemed to fade away with seemingly few mourning their passing.

Am I dreaming this or did Performance Bikes try to do a project TR1.

Whichever way you slice it I just love 4 stroke twins,especially vee's and particularly the one above :D

Mark.

Bullet,you seem to have beaten me to the Vincent comparison :)
