I see you bought the coolest colour 8) Like the bit of detail on the fairing, brakes up the yellow, think you need a new rear too :wink:

The TDM was on my wish list for a while but got slated in the UK bike press, still got a soft spot for them though :oops:

needs front & rear
the Metzlers are shot ... this weekend she'll be wearing Conti Road Attacks
had a rear in the garage for the TDM (same size) already, so I ordered tubes and a road attack front

I loves the TDM, like a big XT, great fun in the twisties, but alas I knew she needed work, I may keep her for local fun, but Tigger will be the distance machine

Dang... now thats going to be a battle, Who rides the bike on what day,  the petty jelousy on the days the other one gets to ride,  the fights all the yelling and screaming.  

The seller..... damn..... smooth- how he got you two to EACH pay to buy the same bike .... damn that's one hell of a salesman :eusa_dance  :ImaPoser

Not that I know of...we're a respectable site - as respectable as advrider has become I guess...

 :roll:

The airbox mod is really the crankcase breather mod...if your bike ever falls over while running (even for a couple seconds) oil will get pumped into the airbox and down into the #1 cylinder.  Buh-bye motor...
