Hi all thinking of selling my TRX. It's in bits & the engine does need a rebuild as it's done 65000miles but it is complete, has been resprayed & the top part of the frame has been powder coated along with the rear spring. I have a few new parts to go with it i.e mirrors, headstock & wheel bearings. The radiator is missing as it was too far gone so I chucked it it'll also need swingarm & knuckle joint bearings. I should also mention that after unsuccessfully trying to get the disc bolts out some damage has occurred to the front wheel (just trying to be honest) new discs & pads (& wheel bolts) will also be needed. It is a UK spec bike & the previous owner told me the engine runs well but is smokey at the top of the rev range which means piston rings are worn. Why am I selling? Two reasons mainly the last couple of years have been very difficult financially plus after extensive searching I can't find a bike shop that wants to take the engine rebuild on & it's not something I can do myself. Looking for around £700 for it but would go a bit less for a forum member if not I'll put it on eBay. Sorry for the long post cheers.
