naaah from me soz,

 

 

looks like you poss damaged it and couldn't get the orange panels, 

 

I thought the same when Honda did their anniversary scheme, silver front red rear, just look to like  crash damaged bike,

 

but your original orange looks faantastic :good:

Have to agree.  It works really well simply in terms of colour scheme, but looks like replacement panels following a drop.

It’s your bike so up to you! May look ok with the luggage on, but I’ve always coveted your orange bike and nearly bought it when you were selling one of the two you had. (If that was you) Might have my one done in orange at some time in the future.

Orange would not be my chosen colour but it does look good. It also shows up the great original design of the bike.

If you are looking to Sell
Advertising in the Dundee area ( Scotland ) would bring some rabid Arabs around licking your face
May also bring some abuse from the Blue side of the City

Looks good though for Orange + Black

A Tbm900, really ?

 

This is a Tbm900 :

Funny enough there is also a Tbm850 :

These turboprop airplanes are built by the French airplane manufacturer Daher.

Director Coppola fly one of them.

 

Nice TDM900 though, but I'd rather like it fully orange !

The TBM900 is much more about getting the colours just right oooo..... And there's no paint on the underside of the fuselage.

So true !  :lol:

 

I also suspect the box just next to the front gear to be an oil recovery basin... :rolleyes:

Sorry, I have to agree that I think it would look better with the side panels in Orange as well.
