You can detach the team project collection from TFS1, backup the SQL database, re-attach the team project collection to TFS1, restore SQL database to the SQL server of TFS2 then attach the team project collection to TFS2

My suggestion, based on what you've said you require would be:

  1. Install TFS Power Tools.
  2. Map source directories for teamfoundationserver1 and teamfoundationserver2.
  3. Create the team project in teamfoundationserver2.
  4. Check out a read-only copy of your team project from teamfoundationserver1.
  5. Copy and paste in Windows Explorer over to teamfoundationserver2.
  6. Right click the project folder, select Team Foundation Server -> Add....
  7. Answer the dialog questions and finish.

You should now have your team project listed as pending changes for teamfoundationserver2.

If you want to bring history across, too then have a look at this.
