Bike for £1500

[bigtwinthing]

Hi All aim after a bike for my mate in Southampton. Not fussy on colour etc but it needs to have had most on the regular mods done please. Not fussed on high levels or loud cans etc but must be reasonably tidy please. Pics and details to me please. Oh £1500 is his top limit so no pushing it up a bit. He has a TRX thats a "ticking" at the moment.!Tappets and shims all done but still doing it. Some of you met him on my ferry trip to Swanage last year

Trx's have weak cranks if run low on oil at any point in their life

The tdm850's too. This is my area of knowledge. I've owned a few.

If he keeps it and rebuilds the engine send it to c Applebee' engineering in Essex. He will fix it and give you right size shims

its not the crank and the shine have been done. I think its the cam Itself ticking. you can hear it on top with a stethoscope around the top end, we've measured all bits but its still doing it, ANYWAY aim after a new bike for him, not a TRX discussion please
