Please fill in the poll as well as continuing to add your comments.

Yes, I'd want a set.

However, as Pleades says they need to be carefully priced.

I have a friend with an XTR who knows Gabe, lives locally, but doesn't frequent this forum. I'll ask him if he fancies being a guinea pig.

Or is it only a Tenere problem?

Those 'piggin' cush drive rubbers are a problem across the XT range, so please get him involved!

Thanks for all your interest so far.

i'd certainly have a set for my XTR, would gladly pay �50ish for a set that lasted more than 5 minutes.

Me too. ..I'm being advised by those that know to check my cush drive already.....on a three month old bike with two thousand miles!, my only concern would be the hardness of the material used...if its too hard it will last but may transmit vibrations, and not 'cushion' the drive train. ..three this can transfer strain to other components. Going from a 650 single with no cush drive I have really appreciated how smooth the drive train is on the Ten Steve

Good point Steve. I'm interested in a set but they must still have an element of "softness" to them. The idea is to cushion the drive and not make it so direct (like on XR's) or the chain and sprockets will wear in no time.
If you haven't checked yours then I'd have a look.
My first Tenere, I checked the rubbers after less than 2,000miles and they were like chewing gum and I bought the bike new.
