What Have You Done To Your Tdm Today?

Quote:usually my windscreen is on brackets(selfmade) and higher(separeted from original windscreen) I've removed them and bolted the extension lower because I expect some offroading.Bike looks very good! Could you show us these selfmade brackets? I'm curious how you've done that. Wind protection is always a pretty hot item on a TDM  
Replace my bent handlebar to Renthal 756. Became a little bit wider.
Next going to thread M16x1.5 and install original heavy ends. ![[Image: 20190918-094535.jpg]](https://i.ibb.co/fXTLY2g/20190918-094535.jpg)

Quote:Managed to Lose a bolt holding the Front Brake caliper on way to work this morning  FWR tyres in Kennington did this to my TDM back in 2002 after fitting new hoops and both bolts came out, brake caliper was hanging down suspended by the brake hose so when i applied the front brake the brake fluid followed the path of least resistance and did nothing to slow my progress thru a sweeping left hander with a buxom pillion on board so the boike stood bolt uproight and i took the chance of running across the curve and into a bramble hedge. The boike remained upright and we were fine but had to have us and the TDM recovered back to south London. I now remove and refit my own wheels.
