Needed some time out from reality to spent some time with the TMax just now...

Got rid of the standard screen and added my favorite summer screen then fixed my cracked mirror stalks... kinda, I wrapped them.

Oh yes...cracking mirror stalks on the mk3....why do they do that?? Not that it seems to matter.............
What screen is that? I saw a Tmax on the A1 yesterday with something very similar.

I might have accidentally put the side lights on when I put the steering lock on.
Hopefully it's not a failing stator. That was common-ish with the MK1s, not sure if they sorted it after that. I had that problem with mine so I bought an Optimate and left it on that every few days otherwise the battery would not have enough charge to start the engine. Wondered if I might have one day gotten around to replacing the stator but then a car driver decided to write off the TMax so that was the problem averted.

its a 2009 TMax with only 3000 miles on the clock, so as the bike has been standing for most of its life the battery was discharged, it has had a replacement battery during this time according to the service history.

I think its a Fabbri screen or something like that... not sure what one.

I started to strip down the TMax today to wrap the front most panels... only to discover that it has been damage in its previous ownership of 3100 miles.

The right hand side belly pan panel has got a broken lug and has been scuffed :(
