For the first time in 18 years my garage doesn't have a TDM in it, just watched a new owner ride away on the 900 and I'm not afraid to admit I shed a few tears, bloody loved that bike.

 

Do I have to hand my TDM mug back 😂😂

If you keep that mug it will just remind you of your loss. Put it away somewhere safe.

Ha, luckily I am not bikeless, have my Tracer 900, if I had the space the TDM would of gone nowhere, so what I need is a lottery win and a bigger garage
