Yamaha Tenere XT660Z carbon engine side covers
 
Hello folks!
I am in search for carbon fibre side covers for Yamaha Tenere engine.
I need more protection on sides, and all I can think of is to find some proper carbon side covers.
Any idea where to get that parts?

Something like this:

Try GB Racing they make side covers BUT they are aimed at track bikes so not sure they would make anything for the XT660....

They have only plastic parts, that is not strong enough.


I found only this for YAM MT03, which suppose to have same engine.

I am waiting their answer, maybe someone here can also confirm?

Hi,

if you are going to search in the german xt660 forum, you will find some carbon made protections. Search uner the tread "heute angebaut".

Or look on the page www.750er.de

Cheers

Er excuse me, GB Racing do not make "plastic" parts. See their web site and I quote:
GBRacing Secondary Engine Covers are manufactured from our High Impact, Reduced wear, Injection Moulded 60% LONG GLASS fibre nylon 6.6 Engineering materials. Extensive research, testing and development has allowed us to create a unique High Quality product range. These covers are FIM approved for track work so they are definitely NOT plastic, as far as I know their stuff is stronger than Carbon. Ciao

I apologise, my fist look was too superficial...

Looks like they have the real stuff here.
Just send a query for tenere, since they dont have it on the page.

Thanks, your info was good.

MT-03 (had one until 2 weeks ago) and XT660 have exactly the same engine.

Hey mate no problem, pleased to help!! I know their products well as I also have a race bike and it is compulsory to have protection on track to prevent oil spills when a bike goes down. Their stuff is (as far as I know) the only product approved by the FIM, and I have seen crashed track bikes and the covers really do work!!! Ciao
