2002 Yamaha 135LC TDM900P Service Repair Workshop Manual PDF
VEHICLE/EQUIPMENT INTRODUCTION:
The Yamaha TDM900P was a sport-adventure touring motorcycle that earned a devoted following for its exceptional versatility. Produced through the 2000s, the TDM900 featured a detuned version of the Yamaha Thunder Ace inline-twin engine (actually a parallel-twin with 270-degree firing crankshaft), delivering strong midrange torque ideal for twisty roads, highway cruising, and mixed terrain riding. The long-travel suspension and upright seating position positioned the TDM as the original crossover motorcycle, bridging the gap between sport bikes and adventure tourers long before the category became mainstream. The TDM900P variant included police specification equipment such as reinforced frame mounts, upgraded electrical systems, high-output alternator, and emergency equipment provisions. The Yamaha 135LC is a popular two-stroke commuter motorcycle widely used in Southeast Asian and Australian markets, known for its liquid cooling, reed-valve engine, and spirited performance relative to its displacement. This manual covers service data for maintaining both platforms.
SERVICE AND REPAIR SCOPE:

DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION:
- TDM900 engine knocks at low RPM under load: check valve timing, verify knock sensor function, inspect fuel injector spray pattern
- TDM900 front brake lever travel excessive: bleed front brake lines, check master cylinder piston seal, inspect caliper slide pin function
- 135LC engine loses power at full throttle: inspect exhaust port carbon buildup, check reed valve sealing, verify correct main jet sizing
- 135LC engine overheating: flush radiator with descaling solution, test fan switch operation, inspect water pump impeller
- TDM900 gear change feels notchy: adjust shift linkage, inspect shift drum bolt, check shift fork guide pin wear
- 135LC kicks back on starting: check ignition timing, inspect flywheel key shearing, verify CDI unit ground connection
- TDM900 chain noise and vibration: clean and lubricate drive chain, check sprocket tooth wear, verify chain alignment with rear axle marks
- Either model battery discharges overnight: inspect parasitic draw with multimeter, check rectifier diode condition, test battery cell voltage
ILLUSTRATIONS AND DIAGRAMS INCLUDED:
