1997 Yamaha TDM 850 Review 

Agreed

I had the tdm 900 for almost 5 years and I sold it to buy something "faster" 🤦‍♂️ and I went and bought a tuono v2. It's like divorcing your wife to go and live with your side chick, it doesn't end well😂. I stupidly regret it to this day selling my tdm that was a wonderful wonderful bike and could do anything with it

I stupidly regret selling my tdm 900 to buy a tuono v2. This was 15 years ago and I still can't get over how well rounded the tdm was and could do anything with it but I was young and didn't fully appreciated it's value.

who sang this ?

I liked it

A tad bit, and some more..! 😂 Would have better liked to hear the engine sound

Sorry about that 😅😂

No

Look for tdm 900 as the later models had abs

Sounds like Chrissy Hyde and the Pretenders.....

Hes just having fun

I would rather ride and buy a Two strokeTDR 250 as they look the same but the 250 is lighter and a lot sportier I can remember they had a TZR 250 YPVS ENABLED engine in a Crosser frame, sorry I am old and the new buzz word is Adventure bike I believe, But alas they have all long gone, been used and abused by my generation lol:) I like pocket rockets as they have always been fast/less weight/and thus sporty, but the trail/crosser bikes have always had a certain amount of torque/fast on dirt/light and nimble, but the latest crossers, sorry but that`s what they will always be to me, are 1 or 2 cylinder tanks of 1000cc+ and weighing more than a rampaging Holstein Friesian cow on acid. I for one would not like to go off road and be pinned under one on a failed attempt to negotiate a bog or attempt to ride this latest frankinstein creation across a potato field followed by a ravenous police range rover as the commentator would happily say "and this leary rider is heading for disaster" PS if you own a big crosser then follow these important steps 1)Practice picking the bike up on your own, half a tank of petrol would help here instead of the 10 gallons a good breakfast should help you here(Weetabix) 2)tell people where you are going, They can search for you without the police or national news coverage saving you the embarrassment you did deserve. 3)Join a motor breakdown service, but don`t expect them to rescue you if you are over 200ft from the public road, FACT. 4)THIS IS OPTIONAL BUT CARRY A FLAIR or alternatively, an Aerosol can based air horn! Similar to them you can buy for football matches. This LAST one is obvious and does not need to be given a step number, please dress appropriately as my 17yrs old daughter witness an adventure biker riding up Snowdonia mountain in shorts and rather fair weather and when she got off the small train ride up the mountain she said he had come off his bike in the snow.
