TDM and Speed Four

Nothing Major, I had a Guy come round and clean my bikes (I detest it and never do a good job)

Here are the results. I'm pretty happy with the job, the TDM looks much better especially considering she is 10 years old and 53k miles Thumbs Up

These were the guys that did the work. Http://www.motorcyclevalet.co.uk/ 2 of them arrived at about 9 and finished at 3:30! Only minor complaint was a bit of rim tape came off the TDM but I have some spare so not an issue. Nice guys would use them again. Thumbs Up

Looks likme a really nice job, I used to love cleaning my cars (when I had a decent one) can't get the enthusiasm to do the same with the bike (I do clean it but don't spend the 4+ hours I used to on the car) lol

Top job Thumbs Up

I'm the exact same, I physically cannot spend hours polishing every last little detail of the bike. If it's sunny I'd much rather be out on it than sat cleaning it.

For £60 they seem to do a lot of work, may have to give it a go

I didn't know you had a TDM. What's it like?

The more I see Speed Fours the more it's convincing me to get one.

Yours is one of the best i've seen. Flyscreen artwork, did you buy it with the union jack on? Or had it done for you?

Nice looking bikes mate.

You can add a ~ before words while searching google to search similar words, its like a thesaurus search tool.

So if you search motorcycle ~valet leicester it will also search for cleaners, detailers etc..

RE the TDM, it is a perfect example of why I prefer Yams to other makes especially Kwaks and Suzi's.

It is 10 years old, it has done 50k, and still is in good nick. It is left outside with no cover and once in a blue moon does it get a jet wash. I look at a lot of the bikes at work and there mine does look well maintained against some of the newer lower milages bikes, one guy has a 2 year old versys and it looks crap, rust all over the sub frame.

Barring shitty rear disc bolts which I have replacements for I don't think there is (or was before cleaning) a single bit of rust on it.

Really torn between an FZ1 and a TDM as my upgrade for the FZS600 that I currently use as my all rounder

Looks like they did a alot of work on the bikes Cool
