Just the odd 1 or 2 members I see! I guess that in Italy, you are never going to be too far away from another Tmax owner!

Re: TMAX CLUB ROMA
Just seen this. We live in Spain for some of the time and often go up the Ronda road (often used by bike testers/launches). Perhaps, surprisingly, Tmaxes being thrashed to the end of their life are commonplace parked up in the cafes up the hill and not being too outdone by the sports bikes. They are heavily modded and encompass all generations from 3 to 8 but Mark 4 and later are the most common. Akrapovics seem to be a necessary requirement....

Re: TMAX CLUB ROMA
Good video.
I think they occasionally go a little bit faster than we do over here. The german Tmax group have had similar ride outs in the past but me and Clive would avoid the "fast group"and keep with the slower riding people. Our mate Craig did try the fast group once. He came back ashen faced..
Pikey and his chums were in a group of their own. The Germans called them "Blumenpflücker". They went so slow they reckoned they could pick flowers as they rode along
