Hi all, what a great forum - loads of TDM info on here!
And I've now just picked up my first TDM this morning, thanks to Mark a member on here.
I'm looking forwards to getting used to it, and since it has a power commander, learning how that all works too.
Now can I just have a few days of sunshine please 😁

Thanks for the welcome!
And I'm even happier now I've fitted the Rentec rack also bought through this forum. Even more solid than I thought it might be 👍

hi think you may have the wrong marky mark. But not sure as i dont know the previous keeper. so its still a possibility. Best Mark.  O yea also that thing has more extras than a premier film  wavey disks fender extender crash bungs gaiters hand guards mirror risers tank protector voltage readout power commander radguard  and a harder rear spring. and now a new rack.

Thanks Picard, it's got just under 42k on it. It's in lovely condition - well it was, can't stop riding it and now covered in dead flies!  :P
