Bike Jan 25 - leehenty - 23-11-2024 Article about TDM 850 in there Here Bike Jan 25 - fixitsan - 23-11-2024 A MK 1 looks so good Bike Jan 25 - LIAW - 24-11-2024 still a great bike and great engine, overlooked by many in their quest to have 'super' power bikes or the latest high tech gadgetry, although mine is a 900 a TDM to me is the balance of all round right'ness and plenty enough'ness but with room for modification'ness :badgerrock: Bike Jan 25 - Catteeclan - 24-11-2024 Quote: Bike Jan 25Did you travel into the future. ![]() Bike Jan 25 - leehenty - 24-11-2024 They date magazines so far ahead now. My R1250 GSA riding brother found it, much to his annoyance, as he is a BMW GSA man to the core. Bike Jan 25 - Pedro - 04-12-2024 Now Now Now, a few years ago, well before face masks were de-rigueur, I was asked by Kevin Raymond (did a test on TDM's, BIKE April issue, 1991) to scribble something about 80's bike life, along with that, I sent some words about TDM's as Practical Sportsbike was doing an article on stand-out Yamaha's and sent it to Mark Graham the then Features Editor (I think). The 80's bit got printed but the TDM one didn't make the deadline so I was told they will keep in for future use. I recognise some of my wordings on there (not enough to claim bragging rights ) and I wonder if they found that article in the files and thought hmmm, thats a cool bike to feature. It's a bike worthy of a special mention, especially as the MK1's are now getting on a bit but still going strong. |
