FIRST LOOK! 2015 TM TWO-STROKE & FOUR-STROKE MOTOCROSS BIKES

The Italian boutique brand has released photos of their 2015 models. Wwill they come to the USA, after skipping the 2014 season? Yes. No. Maybe. Last year the dollar-Euro rate of exchange made the TMs too expensive to be competitive. For info on the 2015 model range go to www.facebook.com/pages/TM-Motorcycles-USA/128116137259936.
