1999 Yamaha TRX850 review from United Kingdom

"Japanese Ducati that doesn't break down"

What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?

Nothing whatsoever.

General comments?

One of the best handling bikes I've ever owned, it's just fast enough to be fun (mine's lightly tuned to produce 80 bhp up from the standard 74). Sounds just like a Ducati, especially when race cans are fitted.
