In the latest issue, the tdm 900 has a small spread, in the coming classic section.

Brilliantly practical and practically fun, the TDM deserves more love than we UK bikers gave it.

What a brilliant write up! Thanks for posting Talltom. 

 

(So the fuel injection of the 900 made it snatch free did it?  :rotflmmfao: )

Sure you might find more if you search the site Tom.  Maybe try searching for 'review'

If any bike from the noughties deserves classic status then the 9er does. What i want to know is when can we get classic insurance.

Im only guessing here, but I thinks its a bike over 20 years old? And you have to be about 90 years old, I could be wrong!

iirc you can't transfer your NCD from classic to standard insurance, summat to consider if you think you might get a newer steed in the future.  Well, that was the situation in my case, it might also depend on the insurer.
