Graeme that sounds like a good idea to me.....allows some time for ideas, planning and a desire to evolve....TDUT10 was brilliant, almost need to do something different (ie location, time of year) to avoid comparison !
......on a personal note I am between TDM's as they say....
I sold the golden haired one to make way for Honda ST1300 which I have specifically bought for a 2 month long service meander from VIC up thru NSW to Queensland with my wife starting in early March this year....its not that the 850 couldnt have done that but felt I would like to try a larger bike for such a trip. When/if I go back to a TDM it would be a 900</i>
Hi Rick, 2010 was good and absolutely agree with you about the comparison thing. Shane(tdmtoraneko) said very early on that he would be hopeful of having the next in Tassie while someone else had said the NT for the next. Shane is active with the Tiger Screen again i see, so we might hear from him about this. Certainly a fairly lonely discussion so far, eh? (that was for the queenslanders). Speaking of whom, hard to believe you are under such threat again, from Yasi this time, and its all happening tonight, so all the best, hope you all come out of it ok (and there are no TDM's parked in garages in low lying areas).
All the best for the big trip!!
cheers Graeme
