Typically when it comes to TL's yellow is slower.


Yes yes I said it.




Blue / white FTW

G-Rex's isn't one that I would really go comparing other TL's to (at least mine). His has had a few mod's done to it.

LOL true that Geoff. I posted a few pics earlier in this thread.

Knowing OSP and his penchant for stripping stuff down, it'll be about as light as mine, then he just needs to work over the motor.

Go back a few pages. I gave him a blow by blow of what he needs to do to that bike. Speaking of, you need to do all of it to yours too. What are you waiting on? LOL

I'm waiting for you to come up to Cincy to help pull the motor apart, and we shall go from there. Or how about if I yank the motor, and send it your way.

Unfortunately, for me and the TL, I really haven't dove into any major mods recently. The only things I've done was the full Yoshi exhaust with Ti cans, Ohlins rear, stainless lines, baseplate mod, Ivans TRE, BMF air filter, and dyno tuned with Yosh box. I need to dive into it this winter and do some more stuff.
