Any ideas why? Could the bars have damped some vibration down? One of the engine mounts was used to fix the bars in place but I think I've put it back right/tight.

The Tenere is very susceptible to vibrations if the front engine mounts are not torqued correctly. I'd definitely have a look again and check this.
Did you use the (longer) bolts that would have come with the crash bar mounting kit or the OE ones. The Givi bolts may not have enough thread on them when used without the crash bar mounts as additional packing? It may be worth buying a fresh set of OE engine mount bolts as they do "stretch" if they are removed and retightened several times.
