Hey guys,

Was perusing trademe when I saw a tm 450 race motard advertised http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Motorbikes/Motorbikes/Dirt-bikes/auction-206740447.htm. I checked out their website http://www.tm-racing.co.nz to find they have a huge range of supermoto, mx and enduro bike models. Funny thing is I have never heard of them. Any more info on the brand? One thing that got me was there are no prices.

from memory they used to be a pretty good mx bike when they were two strokes. Came standard with Ohlins etc

They're some high-end Italian brand, aren't they?

If you want to know the price, you shouldn't be asking :D

like the benelli of dirt bikes i think?


I've read a few reviews over the years. The most recent one rated the TM as the most pimped ride ex-factory, but it was a balls-out performer and not the best choice for the average rider.

TM bikes are available here in NZ. If you talk to the guys that ride them they say they're brilliant value for money. Yes they're dearer but you don't have to put better rims, suspension etc etc. The bike comes with all the stuff you'd want to stick on it already there.

I like the look of them. They can sometimes have a less than great re-sale value if you follow TM and i guess they then make an exceptional buy.
