G'day, Nice to join you all here at Carpe. I'm an Ex-pat Aussie and unrepentant TDM lover, recently relocated in Dubai. Any other TDM riders in the Emirates? I haven't noticed any on the roads yet which is a great disapointment.
Unfortunately I don't have a bike at the moment and haven't had for nearly nine years, unless you count the stepthru I had in Vietnam. I owned a 91 model for seven years. Bought it 2nd hand and put about 100,000km on it in that time. It was brilliant, never missed a beat and gave me lots of good times. One of the saddest days I had was having to sell it when I left Oz to work overseas. Second saddest was seeing what I think was my bike being sold for parts on the site.

Anyway, as soon as I get firmly settled here I hope to be in the market for some wheels again and for sure a 900 will be at the top of my list. As I haven't been able to locate any here at all and the dealers I have spoken to don't know anything about TDM's I may go to GB and pick up one there. Could be a very interesting trip riding it back to the UAE. Might ask Ewan and charlie if they want to join me.
Take care everybody. Rubber side down!
