Hello fellow TDM-ers, it appears time has come to leave the club ( I know, I know, I'm crazy to sell the TDM, I have already been told). I know my ad will probably attract some criticism as most bikes sold here are sold in pristine condition but I believe I have priced it accordingly, so here it goes:

Honest sale of my 2002 Yamaha TDM 900, please read the whole ad to understand what is 'wrong' with this bike to avoid any disappointments, do not expect a pristine bike:
-missing one mirror as the mirror riser snapped while driving ( I have the mirror) therefore it needs fixing before MOT, the other mirror needs fixing as well as it is currently set up with a temporary fix
-the fairing needs glueing and spraying as it has cracks and it is missing screws, this will require more TLC
-certain rust spots as it has not been used a lot in the past 6 months
 
Now for the positive bits:
-valve clearance done at 50k
-new chain and sprockets fitted at 50k
-new front tyre fitted 12/2017
-new rear tyre fitted 01/2018
-replaced RH ignition coil
-Oxford heated grips
-central stand
-gel seat pad
-tall windscreen (I have the other one as well)
-original Yamaha top box
-front fork oil has been replaced 04/2018
-oil and filter changed 04/2018
 
From a mechanical point of view the bike has been maintained however it needs investing in the aesthetical side hence the price. I have the TDM900 stickers for the sides as I wanted to spray the bike myself but never got the time to do it. 
Reason for sale: got a new motorcycle
 
MOT until 30/05/2019
 
I can be contacted only after 7.00PM. For any other details feel free to ask, bike is located next to Loughborough.

that is the biggest screen I have ever seen in my life. Does it hit you in the face when you touch the brakes?

@Coxylaad , believe me, if there was a bigger one I would go for it as this one simply directs all the wind in my helmet making it annoyingly noisy :(

It sold today. Can't believe I gave up on a bike that brought me a lot of smiles and joy but the temptation was too big with new bike. :)

It is a mini rocket and it sure does love to drink that petrol  :cake eating:  . I was skeptical about the riding position myself given my height. I used to have the GPZ500 from Kawasaki before owning the TDM and after 3 hours of riding that my legs could not stand it anymore. When I switched to the TDM it felt like I was floating on a cloud, in my eyes it is one of the most comfortable bikes out there, I was driving it for 15+ hours more than once in one go so I believe I have a good opinion about it :)

The only reason why I wanted another bike is because I felt that for my taste the TDM was lacking some torque and power, but once again that is just me. For normal riding and touring it is hard to find a competitor when you think of riding position and that sweet mpg that the bike gives you, put on top of those the fact that it is a light bike and you could easily say you found the perfect bike (no such thing as a perfect woman, but when it comes to a perfect bike, the TDM is really close  :yeyeye: ). The BMW has proven so far comfortable for my legs and as long as I keep a straight back as well it seems to be ok, I am yet to test it for long journeys (yes, minimum 15+ hours of riding involved) but I am happy with the choice I made
