Improved weather resistance
 

Many areas on the tenere need some care if you are really going to go through the year or water with it. Over the next few weeks I will be fully prepping the bike and as I find a need I will sort it out asap.

Here is a wiring no brainer I found when doing the Scottoiler positioning.
After washing the bike prior to work some of these were full off water ingress. It takes a few minutes to prep them and coat contacts with Vaseline and slicone the wire entry and exits to the plugs. Have always done this on all Trials, Enduro and Rally bikes and never had sparky problems of any kind. More to come as I work my way through the bike.

This need a cable tie to seal the cover onto the loom and prevent water running down loom outer and into/onto connectors.

i'll best do this thanks for the info.
do you protect the rectifier on yours at all?

Have not got to the front end yet but expect ot will need some form of protection around the connector. Seems to be in line for the worst of the crud the wheel kicks up ( hence the extender on my guard)

thanx for the pics
