Hee hee - that's the plan... hence why colour is unimportant, rather the price has to be right... looking at sub �4500 ideally...

G'day JMO, can you buy the stickers easy enough over there for these tenere's. I read of one guy re-painting his white fro red and he had the proper stickers for the white model on.

Yes, Adventure Boy I think it was... presumably the various graphics are available as a spare part?

I have other plans mind you...

Hi, in case you didn't go to the 'newbies say hi' section, I am located in Singapore. We are more than happy to even get the 08s instead of nothing at all. Sorry to the guys in US and OZ:toothy9::toothy9::toothy9:

IN OZ WE ARE GETTING THEM.......SEPTEMBER :D

Ah, my mistake - that would explain it then!

A lot of people seem to prefer the 08 colours, and you are going to love that bike for sure!

And a belated welcome! (even if this is technically the wrong thread, it's never wrong to say hi!)

ps. still looking for the best price on a new Tenere - 08 or 09 - anyone?

The Bike Shop Faversham ( http://www.thebikeshopfaversham.co.uk/ ) have a brown one in stock (plus a black, red, blue and a second hand black) if you really want one. Did not check the price but as its in stock they tend to keep the price before the recent rise.

The 2nd hand one (with top box) is going for �4600 is however...

ATT: JMo
 

Sorry for getting slightly off topic for a moment, but:

JMo, as far as i can see, your ride report accross America and back, is this only to be read in a magazine in the UK or do you have it posted on the web somewhere as well? After seeing some pics you have post here and at ADV has got my interest and I would like to have a read of your journey.

Cheers
Reg

Hi Reg -

I'll be writing about my trip across the USA and back on the Tenere for TBM magazine (UK published, but available on worldwide subscription, and in US book/magazine stores for example) later this year - having spoken to my editor this week, the series is likely to start later summer and run over a number of issues.

As such, I won't be 'publishing' anything of any substance on the web (or elsewhere) until after that series is published, but feel free to ask any specific questions regarding the trip, and I'll do my best to answer them here on XT660.com
