Greetings, all.
Old hand, new on TDM, obviously sought the best forum to learn and hopefully contribute some, too.
Did the airbox mod disconnecting the brown/black wire at the ECU connector, well worth it and super easy to do. Then looked for places to build in an oiler, and waddayknow? Tucked nicely away under the seat was already a Scottoiler, unknown to the seller (commission sale at an otherwise good Yamaha dealer). Empty, of course, so filled it for now with some fresh 5w40 in lieu of the blue stuff. Will see how it pans out and replace if necessary. Also moved the rear brake pedal down a notch to accommodate my long legs.
Will try sheep skin, beads and whatsnot before I start modding the seat from the inside, bony a*s not too happy with the stock saddle. Oh, and ordered mirror extenders and hand guards off Ebay. Grip warmers to be considered if guards turns out to be insufficient.
