Nice, but that screen still needs sorting!

[muddy]

Apart from the pipes and belly pan, yuck. Looks like it's got a washboard built into the shroud. Now there's a thought Oh, and I really don't get this urge to fit it with a shaft, the chains fine.

SWMBO just went weak at the knees and said I could ave one.
If they bring out the XT12 aswell I'll be in bike heaven.
Cept I can't afford either.

1Litre
Shaft drive

strangley placed filler cap

I like it, shaft drive and all. Should come w/ an 'adventure touring' version that is set up for longer rides: better windscreen, nice panniers, serious back rack, wire wheels? Oh wait, that's the cloth super tenere I guess.

Nice photoshop, needs more yellow.

[MarkyMark]

Those indicators look expensive.

I'd ride it - if it was yellow - and had a chrome exhaust.

That tank looks massive ! Be nice to view it from other angles. It's certainly a noticeable update ! They got the colour scheme right at last !

Get one in gold and black, it'd resemble a bird of prey ! I prefer the more aggressive looks.

Looks like there's gonna be both, a New TDM AND a New XTZ then [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rockon.gif[/img]

Can't check if the img link works as the office block share sites...but another angle if it does work...

Now that looks much better [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tup.gif[/img] What on earth is that front disc all about [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif[/img]

[FILO]

Looks good...always liked the black and silver finish....haven't got used to the 'waste pipe' size exhausts that seem to be in fashion at the moment though

They must have bought the surplus stock from Buell. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img]

I think these are design pictures only, done on photoshop not real bikes, or proto-types.

One thing that struck me on the first picture is the filler cap, there is no way that is right.

It is half way down the tank, there is no reason for it there and have the standard tank above it ( half full ).

The one above, the perspective on the exhaust is wrong as is the front wheel.

For design projects in splicing photos together, the are good.

this is one I did earlier.





Pity I like the TDM 1000, it's more likely based on the new xj 1000 Diversion.

Although I think that the gold paint job used on the 98 Mk2s would look good on either of those.
