G,day everyone it is time for me to let go of my pride and joy. this is a european built motorbike. it has very high quality parts and workmanship. you cant compare this bike to japanese yz's and rm's etc. it comes out factory ready to race. this bike has had a rebuilt motor. it has been sitting in a garage for over 3 years, but has been started every month. its only been riden for about 6-8 hours since rebuild. would really like to see this bike go to a good home. reason for selling is have a child now and just had my seccond knee reconstruction.
TM racing has been around since 1976, TM is well known for build quality, power and reliability. there is a good parts supply for these bikes same as your normal japanese bikes.
The parts that make this bike unique to other bikes are:
the tank is built into the frame unlike other bikes of its age
Twin watercooled head
Billet hubs
Takasago exlel rims
Brembo brakes with a front floating disc to improve its braking
