Oh ye of little faith and owners of large vats of pish taken from yours truly.
BIKE magazine Feb 2009 issue landed on the mat today, prolly the last copy I'll receicve as I've cancelled my subs
Opening the cover and perusing the usual boring RC8/CBR/ZX/GSX shite, I was stopped, mid toast-to-gob-like-a-right-cock-end to see my shell suit blue pink and green TDR on page 95. (not actually mine of course, some other nutter's)
As the chewed ball of toast fell from my still-open gob, I read these words:
"the TDR looked like a reasonably comfy road bike with off-road styling...a bit like Honda's Transalp without the toupee and Werther's Originals. Instead it was everything Yamaha have ever stood for in one perfect motorcycle"
Splat. The toast-and-spit ball hit the open mag on my lap and shook me out of the stupour.
I am now all giddy like a kid at Christmas! My months of toiling, sweating, swearing and bashed knuckles have been vindicated in print.
This is one serious hooligan machine, and I cannot wait to get it road legal (should be next week) and legally feel that rush of energy as the YPVS does its stuff!
