Ride It, Don't Hide It - Yamaha TDM900 - Duke Dyson

[@Moonfleet41]

Bloody love a wet splashy ride... which is handy really as it's gonna be pissisting down tomorrow.! 🌧🌧⚡🌨

[@DukeDyson]

'tis the nature of a Blighty bimble eh buddy. See you in the morning 🙂

[@gerry9359]

Well hopefully not next Sunday del but if it does it's only a bit of the wet stuff

[@garya3056]

Raining hard here across the waters, too, Del!

[@Moonfleet41]

@@garya3056 Just look at it this way.. Rain rain rain means no salt on the roads and less field slurry to wade through... and if you like your bike to look a little Wasteland... then it's all good.!

@@Moonfleet41 yessir that’s it precisely!

So many afraid of too many miles and the weather. Can't be fun.. All the best for 2022 sir.

Riding in Blighty means occasionally getting wet unfortunately 😞 Happy New Year to you

Bulletproof machine. Heard once about a guy who made more than 200k km without any issues.

[@Fortemagno]

Yes indeed..Riding a motorcycle is a way to escape and find anti-stress, passion and emotions. I also own a tdm 900 and it is always a pleasure to drive it (unfortunately one of the few true yamaha crossovers) . I must say, however, in your country, despite the cold, the roads are in excellent condition, unlike in Italy where the asphalt is often deformed and you can even find holes! have a nice ride and stay safe!

[@DukeDyson]

Indeed motorcycling is all these things; some of the roads here are excellent but, just like elsewhere in the world, some of them are terrible! Once the good ones are discovered I enjoy them as much as I can. Thank you for watching, take care and ride safe 🙂

[@bikesmith]

Bom ano novo, Senhor Dyson! Maybe you could ride them down south a little bit more. (no rain gear needed) take care

[@DukeDyson]

and a very happy New Year to you both also Alex. I have some European plans that have been on hold for two years now 😞 This year must be the year?

[@raytokens2291]

You do have some great roads down there, cracking scenery what a great place to go riding. Even in dismal weather. Keep riding safe bruv

[@DukeDyson]

There's some pretty good ones Ray if you know where to avoid the pot holes :-) Last Sundays was a cracker eh :-)

Great video, I had the TDM850, which was a great bike.

[@DukeDyson]

Cheers James, I used to have a TDM850, as you say, great bike. It's what inspired me to get the 900

[@ortnerendre4197]

I also think it's a great motorcycle. Mine has 80,000 kilometers on it, fault-free.

[@DukeDyson]

They're great aren't they 🙂 Thanks for watching

@@DukeDyson 😎 thank you, Distraction Man!

[@BatterseaBill]

Happy new year to you, I noticed that you have a white board hanging on the wall, hope your not going to do complicated mathematical diagrams or famous sayings by famous individuals on KZbin. That's one rabbit hole you'll want to avoid 😉

[@DukeDyson]

Ha ha, certainly not, it's purely for my benefit 🙂 Happy New to you too 🙂
