Goodbye Tdm - akirasan - 06-01-2026

After 11 years of owning my fantastic TDM 850 4TX  2000 it is time to hand it over to my son.

 

I bought from a mate who had it from new so I know its history.

 

He is 6 foot 3 so needs a tall bike. I have replaced it with a Fazer 1000 to keep my other 5 Yams company.

 

She has never let me down and is a total do everything bike.

FZ 750 streetfighter I built

Fazer 1000

XJR 1300  SP with a few special bits on it very very torquey

The fazer 1000 is a good all rounder, run great with Ivans jet kit in the carbs, other good mod is R6 rear shock with shorter dog bones, makes them handle great.

I went the other way fazer to tdm when I realised my brain wasn't keeping up with the bike on the straights, the joy of MS, I would have done something stupid sooner or later.

Fazer has been ivanised goes great shock looks very good  not sure what it is but handles very well and brakes very good.
