Just saying hello, I used to have a Bonnie and I was a tiler..hence the name..I thought it was clever...ah well...
Just bought the TDR (6 months ago) and although I'm 100 years old...I'm loving it, I'm certain that I may need help here and there..but just fitted some Arrow amplifiers...very nice.. |

Welcome to the forum bonnietiler and that's a great name there.. Liking the TDR too, plenty of TDR fans on here (including someone with a gag version in your colours!)
Hey, while we are talking names.. My favourite TV shows were Top Cat and Scooby Doo... Erm um sorry that's not really why I also have a suspect name  ha ha
What I really want to know though..
How come your incinerator has rusted but your lid is okay? My lid died way before the walls caved in.. 
Great to have you fella

Thanks for the welcome, the swinging arm is a std one with a pair of adjusters welded to the ends, it's actually just the same length as a std.
The Dustbin is a B+Q 500 the matching lid has been polished and ported to improve performance! |

Brilliant, your going to get on here just fine !  
PS clearly mine was a finely tuned dustbin lid too, but I didn't maintain it properly...

Welcome bonnietiler,
Love that TDR 
Are you going to get the dustbins bottom end sorted? Can anyone think of the best place to send it?

A little bit of Autosol and a buff and she'll be fine. Probably leaks less than an old British bike even at the moment  |

Hi and welcome bonnietiler 
Nice TDR you have there, i especially like your Arrow cans, not seen any on a TDR before, very cool
Sorry but i can't join in the conversation about your incinnerator as i have never owned one and know nothing about them  |

The TZR wheels on my TDR are painted silver also and i must admit i'm not a fan 
Maybe paint the wheels on your bike yellow? I think black would be too much
I hope to eventually change the wheels on my TDR to fat supermoto rims
Here's a pic of my TDR
Has got carbon VJ21 front muddy and carbon heatsheilds fitted now though |

Welcome,
I had one of these when they first came out in '87' E993ERB. mental wheelie machines and great fun to ride. As for your wheels I would paint the back one black (doesn't show up the chain lube so much) and the front yellow. It brings back good memories |
