New Toy
« on: May 03, 2016, 12:50:10 AM »
I picked up this new to me Tenere a week ago.  She's a 2013 model with just 24,000km on it and came with the Givi luggage.  Now to start adding farkles...





Had my first decent ride on her in the weekend and I'm loving it so far.  More aggressive tyres will be needed soon too...

Looks like a 2014 model....I had one the same with electric suspension, it's a real nice bike but short of a couple of cylinders for me  :)

I would recommend TKC 70 tyres or the more aggressive TKC 80
