Nice looking bike, have seen it at royal a few times. Sorry to get kinda off topic here but whats the deal with the trx90 throttle? Not as stiff?

Yeah the trx90 throttle has a very light spring. The stock yfz throttle will kill your thumb after a few laps but with the 90 throttle you don’t even notice. It’s pretty common to swap it out on yfz’s.

noticed it has +2 houser’s. Were the shocks ever re-valved for this seeing as they are stock housings?

+2 hoisers use the same shocks. They do not require a long travel shock

I know this. I have a Roll design Lobo 2 front end with Axis long travel shocks. I was asking if the shocks for re-valved for the change in geometry. Spring rates and rebound and such change when you move a stock shock mount out 2 more inches.

The shocks mount in the same position, there is no change in geometry.

So here is the deal, selling this for $3400 now. It’s $1000 below book value for a quick sale.
I have removed the aftermarket exhaust, intake, cdi box, kick start (still has electric) and a arms i was origionally going to sell this with and replaced them with the stock parts. I have edited my first post to reflect the aftermarket parts it will come with.
