Overview
The Yamaha TDM 900 is a Sport Tourer from the TDM family, produced from 2002 through 2013. The 2013 model uses a 897 cm³ liquid-cooled, fuel-injected parallel twin four-stroke producing 85 hp (63 kW) and 88.8 Nm of torque at 9,100 rpm; it weighs 223 kg wet and 199 kg dry.
An 825 mm seat puts the rider relatively high, while the 223 kg wet weight can make slow-speed maneuvering more demanding. The 20-liter tank suits longer stretches between stops, and the touring luggage rack provides a place to carry bags; 150 mm of front wheel travel and 133 mm at the rear give the suspension room to absorb bumps. The chain final drive needs regular cleaning and adjustment, and ABS is optional.

Pros and cons
Advantages
Touring luggage rack
The rack gives riders a dedicated place to secure luggage for trips.
Large fuel tank
The 20-liter tank allows more fuel aboard between fill-ups.
Long suspension travel
The 150 mm front and 133 mm rear wheel travel provide room to absorb uneven pavement.
Things to consider
High seat
At 825 mm, the seat may make it harder for shorter riders to plant both feet.
Substantial wet weight
Its 223 kg wet weight takes more effort to manage at walking speed.
ABS is optional
Not every TDM 900 has ABS, so riders seeking that braking aid need to find a version equipped with it.
