TDM850

Totally new for '99 the  TDM850 offers unique, comtempory styling and big bore, street swallowing muscle that turns heads and drips character.

The culprit is a motor that's widely recognised as a true gem. Yamaha's five-valve 270 degree parallel twin makes strong power over a rev-range as wide as the Simpson.

This torquey, fuel efficient engine is mated to a chassis of unrivalled versatility, with a comfortable semi-upright seating position and pothole-swallowing suspension that turns Australia's roughest backroads and urban minefields into Autobahns.

With it's superb handling precision, roll-on grunt, excellent brakes and elevated field of vision, the TDM850 chainsaws through gridlocks and snakes along twisted mountain roads. The best part is that you'll have to ride it to realise where sheer brilliance and innovation collide.
