    Those ones Mick aren’t big enough around the top seal and are a worry getting to seal. I have one that I got with my screen but don’t use it because I cant be sure its sealing.

    Uniflter at Gosford also sell ones that are small around the top seal as well but better than the ones from off the road. The genuine Yamaha ones are the best they have the largest foam ring around the top that I have found so far and I have bought 3 different ones :laugh: they are also the most expensive I have bought

    The Yamaha filters have the inner glued to the screen :(

    Doesn’t look like they are glued together in these photos

    They can’t be glued Mick they are a single element the Yamaha ones are a twin filter and heaps better even with the inner glued in

    Mick I got the filters mixed up in my last post the Yamaha is a twin element and the uni a single.

    Nick when you are down for the birthday ride I will show the filters I have and how I have modified a Yamaha to go with uni gage. See what you think.

    Mick I will take some pictures to show the differences. The filters are a bit of a pain tto fit and it’s hard to check the sealing flange

    I got a couple more bits for the Tenere and both seem to be very well made and practical

    An extension to the existing brake pedal

    This is a replacement for the sump drain plug. It screws in to the same position but has a built in valve that only releases the oil once the valve connector pipe is fitted. It eliminates the need to remove the bash plate when draining oil and also makes the job way cleaner.

    After getting a stick stuck in my rear brack lever and boiling my fluid I replaced the fluid and while I was at it fitted a braided brake line.

    It looks the business and feels good so far but I’ll report any findings after the lightning ride ride next week.

    Ended up bleeding it rather than using the syringe as I changed the brake line too :)
