Just found this 'page'..............2 weeks late but..... here goes ð
My names Steve, (Farley), living in Guisborough NE England, 52yrs young.
Never had a 'four', owned Spanish, Italian, Japanese, German.....2strokes-stokes, singles-twins-triples.
Persuaded my son to go for a big twin for his first big bike (56 SV1000sz) with promises to buy it of him when he was ready to 'move on'......
Guess what..........He LURVES it..........!!!!!!!! ð³
So..........a medically enforced 'lay off' from bikes, (2yrs) Son showing no signs of 'moving on'..........
To be honest a TDM didn't come into the equation............always wanted a Africa Twin.....but one came along anyway!!!!
Rode a 600 Hornet, (buzzy rev hungry 'toy'.....actually had to use the brakes to slow down) bought the 94 TDM for £1020, liking everything about it so far.........
Quick comparison between SV/Hornet/TDM........SV, think your going 80, look n find ya doing 100+, Hornet, think ya going 80, look n find ya doing 55, TDM, think ya doing 70, look n find ya doing 70.........
So far so good anyway..........one happy rider!!!!! ð
