I rode a TM 530 once (thanks Jeff Tasky), probably the single fastest dirt bike i have ever tried. 11K full ohlins model. Would have been sick on the street. Looked kinda like this... Here is the street model Jaff also had. Sick I tell ya.
The BD is one hot bike, 'cept for the headlight. I'd toss the Acerbis 1st thing, otherwise freaking hot ride. The TM sumo is surprisingly nice looking considering it's "powder blue".
Powder Blue? how 'bout the mid nineties when they wore HOT PINK plastics and seats ! http://img204.imageshack.us/i/img4368.jpg/sr=1 http://www.leguidevert.com/tm/tm125cross1995.jpg
Wow..., not THAT was one fugly bike. I'd bet that designer would like to pretend he never came up with that concept.
