    As you may have gleaned from Tommy XS post, we are hoping to go to spain next year and feel the need to get a suitable steed. My Bar hopper XS won't do and the sports orientated FZ will kill me. So I was thinking a 2 pot and thought of the TDM. Ugly things but the ones with the 270' crank sound good. Any thoughts?
  4. I use peter james, phone them
  5. :welcome:, yep they are a heavy bike due to more meat in the engine. 75 i think is the top end if its igntion setup and with clean carbs

  21. Been a busy weekend for me which started Thursday to Wray. I went to Donnington Park festival of Bikes Saturday where the CRMC raced and the VJMC put on a classic show in the exhibition hall. Bloody hot day too. When I first got there I was like a kid in a candy store, saw one bike, then detored because i saw another etc etc. did lots of walking around because of that. Amazing day. Journey there was boring at the end on the A50, so I took a detour home via Matlock which was a lot more interesting some pictures Ron Haslams Cagiva Arial Leader and Commer van Pendine racer suzuki TR750's TZR700 another TR but difazio front end and natty fairing Pheonix 4 some nob 'ead parade lap, they only did about 50mph arounf the circuit and it cost them £200 Matlock Stop off at Cat and Fiddle for a piddle
