No, you need to ride a mk1 again Cliff. Smile  Mk1's are also easier when it comes to removing the engine. Lol

God i forgot, are'nt they just, the mk1 is still my favourite, the 900 has other advantages.

Hello folks. Jonathan here from Dublin and the now owner of a 2003 TDM 900. Bike has 53k miles on it and looks to be well sorted and cared for. Few of the extras include Hel brake lines, power bronze screen, PLR rear shock, peak performance sorted front forks with hagon springs, fuel race cans, Neken bars with risers, acerbic hand guards, adjustable footrest kit and other bits and bobs. Delighted with the bike rode it 250 miles from Bristol to Holyhead in the driving rain on Saturday and very enjoyable despite the typically British and Irish weather.

 

Have a sneaky feeling it belonged to a forum member here at one stage as he has copies of the JBX cam chain tensioner fix in among the service history stuff will post up a couple of pics when the weather changes from utterly rubbish to acceptable :good:

 

Looking forward to gaining knowledge about the bike from fellow forum members and hopefully sharing a few laughs.

:welcome:  to the club Jonathan ! 
Welcome Jonathon, sounds like you grabbed a good one  :good:

Hi all, I'm Ed, I live near Berwick upon Tweed and ride a 2012 TDM 900 (amongst others). I bought it new on the basis of reviews, all of which ended up saying, "This is a great bike, can't understand why it doesn't sell more." I'd never seen one, let alone sat on or ridden one when I bought it, but it's as good as everyone says. I guess you guys don't need me to tell you that.

Hello ed and welcome.

Welcome to the club Ed.
Certainly is dablik -- roads, views, hardly any cars.

Hi All, about time I introduced myself. Got a TDM 900 around the beginning of March, had a Triumph Bonnevill America before that for about 10 years but she was starting to have more problems than I had money to sort, so I had a look around and was enticed by the TDM, I've used it pretty much every day for work and pleasure & have to say that it's definitely one of my better decisions in a fair while !?!?

 

There's a couple of things I'd like to change but I'll ask your advice later or on another thread, just wanted to say Hi !!!

 

And the standard bit now ... in my forties, well, mid forties, ish, ok, late forties  .... married with 3 daughters and 2 grandsons, been biking properly since I was 15, lived in zimbabwe for a time whilst growing up and now live in Manchester, near Stockport .... think that's all, feel free to ask / advise / tell me to shut up Smile
