    If this has already been discussed, where would I find the dialogue? Just bought a new Tenere and need to get all the important accessories. I'm looking for quality first, then worry about price and availability later.

    Goods like this are much harder to find in Thailand, Vietnam or Indonesia; often it's a case of take what you can find cos it may not be there again next week. Either that or carry it through on a plane trip home. (Shipping usually is tricky because of corrupt customs officials)

    Sort of makes you wish you had a reliable long distance all road capable bike to go and collect them on doesn't it. :D

    Get ready to sale your right nut and maybe your left..

    So many great aftermarket stuff out there.


    My ACD skidplate is on its way!:clap


    Tabasco has awesome stuff! Ridonadv is a one stop shopping for many items like crashbars (altrider) to Tires... Smart move I would say.

    You are going to love it!!

    I would get some knowledge by researching posts from:
    Dallara
    Graham
    Plufic
    Old grit
    Burdonk (not sure if I have is name correct) He rides serious offroad and is into function not just looks etc..
    Snakebitten
    Spacetraveler
    Wasp who is MIA-I think he sold his bike and went into super motto not sure. But allot of history on his posts.
    And many others.

    First I would go to what Graham has developed or organized in the bike specific thread under Yamaha super tenere. He has done an awesome job organizing all the important topics from aftermarket parts to oil changes.

    And if I sucked at explaining this I am sorry everybody. Just in a hurry.
