Smart weapon
If you really want to get a feel for individual character and the level of owner satisfaction and model loyalty a TDM engenders – ask a TDM rider. You may well hear that the TDM is the smart choice for real world, down under roads... that it’s every motorcycle you’ll ever need wrapped up in one. Aggressive mountain road mauler, long-legged two-up tourer or powerful city commuter, it’s up to you… and your TDM900.
Fuel injected parallel-twin engine features a proven 5-valve head atop plated alloy cylinders, with bottom-end grunt, a stomping mid-range and punchy top-end.
The TDM900’s heart beats with a distinctive 270-degree crank configuration. It’s the reason many liken the TDM’s character to a V-twin.
A strong, lightweight alloy frame harnesses those adrenalising top-end ponies.
A 20-litre fuel tank ensures excellent range from the TDM’s economical DOHC engine.
Long-travel suspension and an almost 50% front end weight distribution combine for sharp steering and handling performance.
Progress of TDM’s meaty power spread is easy to monitor with a large, easy-to-read tacho
Relaxed, semi upright ergonomics mean better vision in traffic, and in conjunction with a plush seat provide all-day riding comfort.
Yamaha’s potent opposed-piston one-piece caliper front brake provides excellent braking power and modulation.
A slick-shifting six-speed transmission provides maximum flexibility from the TDM’s meaty power band, and contributes to its mastery of the mountain back road.
The lightweight all-alloy chassis uses high-spec suspension and brake components, for sporty handling characteristics that will surprise you – and those you ride with.
Scintillating braking feel and performance comes courtesy of Supersport-derived double disc brakes.
