What Have You Done To Your Tdm Today?

[thelodger]

Installed my Givi dolomiti luggage today, very happy with how they look on the bike

 

Also put on some engine bars

 

Installed my new Yamaha touring screen I bought off fellow member Rusper, I also got a centre stand off of Rusper but the bolts under my bike to attach it are completely seized :/ exhaust coming off next weekend (maybe) to take the angle grinder/welder to them

 

I picked up some Oxford hand grips from Ebay. Only bought these as they have just the one attachment point - the bar ends - so felt install would be easier. Wouldn't recommend these. I can rotate the hand guard with firm but not extreme force, and I really tightened the adjustment screws (which are aluminium so all the allen heads are now circles...). I read on here that R1150GS, Versys and KTM hand guards are popular choices. 

 

Still got some chinese engine bar lights to install, heated grips and hoping to invest in a Givi Zumo 595lm in the coming weeks. These will all go on their own relay and fusebox controlled circuit from the battery. Next weekend for that though I think, working with a soldering iron in the rain not my idea of a good time!

 

On the wishlist is a 17" front wheel. I'm getting a lot of punctures and my Pirelli Angel GTs are costing me a fortune. I have the abs model and have read that the hubs of the 1998-2001 R1s, R6s and FZ1000s respectively won't accept the sensor. Wouldn't be the end of the world for me to lose ABS as none of my previous bikes had it but would like to retain it for value preservation as much as anything if I can. Any success stories on this front?

Just a thought but when I fitted my centre stand it came with 3 bolts which crewed into 3 threaded holes under the back of the engine......so please don't grind any existing  bolts off unless you are sure you are right !!!!
