Hi Pedro and welcome to old bulls. I too have a Tenere and really enjoy the ride. You say you ride a bit of sand on it , how does it handle ? Have you ridden it fully loaded in sand ? What tyres are you running ?

Cheers

Nick

hi nick its a bit of a handfull in the sand especially when theres ruts .you need to go quick to stay on its hopeless going slow.havnt ridden it fully loaded but think it might ride better loaded bit like a semi .im running dunlop 606s brilliant grip on the road and in the dirt n sand took it on a ride recently where we take the 450s went brilliant it just blasted up some really narly hills that several of the guys didnt get up.was terified i was gonna drop it was only 5mths old.also fitted protaper bars and bar raisers just perfect for sitting or standing im 6ft.added bark busters an heavy duty tubes .also cut the rear hanger off an turned the no plate light 180 degrees drilled small hole in the bottom to let out any water cheers pedro
