For the first time in 18 years my garage doesn't have a TDM in it, just watched a new owner ride away on the 900 and I'm not afraid to admit I shed a few tears, bloody loved that bike.

 

Do I have to hand my TDM mug back 😂😂

If you keep that mug it will just remind you of your loss. Put it away somewhere safe.

Ha, luckily I am not bikeless, have my Tracer 900, if I had the space the TDM would of gone nowhere, so what I need is a lottery win and a bigger garage

My 9er went to its now 3rd owner last month. A brilliant, reliable, all-round bike but I'm at an age where a lower seat height is desirable - pulled a hamstring at a stop on an uneven surface.

Staying with Yamaha, it's replacement is a BT1100 and joins my SRX6. Chalk and cheese but both entertaining to ride.

Thanks for advice I've received from you lot and I wish you all a merry Christmas and prosperous New Year.

When I eventually get there unable to get my leg over I hope to have worn it out. Just rolled over to 45,000 hardly run in.
