Parts prices for TM's are about twice that of other makes though. Just keep that in mind if you think you are getting a bargain. Also Remember that this is a race bike not a trail bike.

A 2007 TM for $6500 overpriced?

These bikes come with all the bells and whistles. This ain't 1955 man. Brand new these things go for roughly $12000.

Looks like the most expensive 125cc motorcycle I have ever seen. If someone had pulled up next to me on the DRZ400 on one of those things and then proceeded to tell me what a great deal it was and what price they had paid for it, I'd have most likely fallen off my bike laughing. :Oops:

I never agreed in the concept of paying a small fortune for a trade name when there are plenty of cheaper and IMO, just as good alternatives. Besides, if I could afford a Ferrari, I'd rather have a particular HSV GTO and custom trike instead and use the rest for upgrading the where I live. Mind you, I suppose those who can afford that sort of thing allready have it all sussed. The last 10 months has pretty much changed my whole outlook on life and having the best of the best, no longer seems that important.
