what is the top speed of TDM900.
Certainly nowhere near as fast as a CBF1000 mate!

Well that's one reason I suppose - but I just like winding up these slow TDM riders

Anyhoo, more than enough if you ask me, I hardly ever breach 160 km/h or 100 mph and when I do I usually feel bad about it afterwards.

had 145mph indicated on the speedo with no boxes and laying on the tank with 1 arm behind me

i managed to record 137mph on the sat nav from Gs to Dunkirk with 3piece luggage.

needed to test the new rear shock

it was mainly down to me following amarkos lines.
I'm glad i've got a goodun, coz the RTW trip is looking more likely

yesterday my senior manager agreed in principle to me working in India for 2-3months and taking 3months to get there and with 3 months after for further (or return) travel.
his deputy (and head of the team in India) is over here in Feb, so I'm having a meeting with them then to work out dates




we have 3 sites in India (Chennai, Noida, Pune) and parts of our team in each.
so I should get a fair bit of sight seeing while there
