Security Chain
 

Looking for a portable security chain that I can stow on the bike XTX) and fit when parked up down the shops or race meetings etc. I don't fancy a heavy chain in my rucksack so I am wondering what you guys use and how you carry it when riding.....
Thanks in advance

I can not remember 100% but isn�t there room for a D lock under the seat

Not sure if this idea is any good to you but my D-shackle goes under the rack. I raised the rack on aluminium pillars (tubing), inside which bolts pass from the top box, or rack surface, and fasten under the Yamaha tail plate.

The aluminium tube is from B+Q or any hardware store and is approx 8mm outside diameter and 6mm inside. The bolts I used were stainless M6 x 80mm and cut to length so the D-lock slid snugly under the rack.

Thats a neat solution! Unfortunately I don't have a rack on mine but its on the list of possibilities and I might pinch your idea if I get one.

hope it works out for you.......I pinched the idea off a mountain bike rider, off all things.

Hi Chalk Two, can you tell me where you got the wavy front discs on your Tenere. ..? Steve

Hi Steve.. They've been on since November 2016 and have done 7500 miles. I picked them up from ebay from ;-

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Front-Bra...-/171927045602 ( might have to check this link isn't for the old Tenere)

They've been great but without any improvement over standard in the wet or dry. I bought mine because the rear was worn too thin thanks to 'none branded' pads and one of the fronts had a warp that I couldn't track down to the usual stuck bobbin.

Thoroughly recommended

EnjoY !
