 After spending most of last week tackling my rear suspension linkage on my '04' 9er I went out for a ride today and ended up buying this beauty!

It's '09' reg with only 7200 miles on the clock. Can' wait to pick her up.

 

Probably spend next week tackling the rear suspension linkage!

I do like the Blue/Black combo - I'm nearly there with mine, but till has the grey engine paint :(

 

Did you Part-Ex yours, or just fancied a 2nd TDM...?

Yep did a part ex deal with the dealer. To be honest I could probably have got a bit  more for mine selling it privately but this is the easy/lazy way out.  :) All in all though I'm a happy chappie!  :P

Looks a great buy!

 

I got a 2010 TDM 900A, with 7,000 miles on it last year and it felt like a new bike, but much cheaper (oldie was c. 40k plus).

 

Got a fair/realistic price for trade-in and dealer changed over all my kit onto new bike. (I prefer my old Givi stuff etc...) 

 

Put well over 10,000 miles in 12 months - all ride-outs and tours

 

Enjoy!

p.s. Sadly the dealer, Ian Bell (on right of picture) was killed in this years TT. A grand bloke and honest bike dealer .... RIP

Ian Bell - sad loss Pete. He seemed to be racing for decades - in fact he did!
