Yamaha TDM 900 Review

The Yamaha TDM 900 was as brilliant beating congestion as swinging bends. The parallel twin engine was gallant enough to have fun, while the wide handles really let you take charge and hustle.

The TDM900 replaced the TDM850, it's predecessor from 90's to 2001. A new aluminium frame and swingarm Of the TDM 900 Make this bike become 11kg lighter than the TDM 850. There's also the obvious extra displacement, with the TDM's motor now 897cc.

The Yamaha TDM900's ex-R1 brakes are good and the TDM900 feels more like an oversized supermoto with the slim sides and low-ish seat height than anything else.

Motoways speeds up to about 90mph are OK, thanks to the fairing, and pillions are well served with a nicely sculpted seat and decent grab rails. The headlights are rubbish, frankly.

The Yamaha TDM900 is miles better than the older TDM850. The stainless exhaust, alloy frame and paint is much improved, but the mild steel suspension linkage is prone to the same rust problem as the 850. In 2006 there was a recall to address a problem with the TDM's throttle position sensor.

Older Yamaha TDM900s can be had for the same price as a 10-year-old CBR, making them good value to buy secondhand. Compare it to a BMW GS, and it's an utter bargain. Both are aimed at adventurous non-conformists, but only the Yamaha TDM900's this affordable.
