Thanks guys for this very interesting thread

I've been keen on the Tenere since it first appeared on the scene but when I was in the UK last year there were none to be found. I couldn't even get one in Italy. Now I'm sure I can pick one up in the next few weeks but it has been suggested to me by one who's views I respect that a modded 660R might be a better bike.

Decisions - decisions ????

If I still had a workshop and a permanent address I might go down the modded 660R route just for the lower seat height but from what I have read on this forum every owner seems pleased with their new Tenere. She looks the biz straight out the crate - comes with most of the good bits fitted and seat height shouldn't really be a prob for my 33ins inside leg.

Head scratching over - I will follow my heart and go for the Tenere ---

Jeez there's even a choice of colours ---

decisions - decisions ---

It looks good in black --- but maybe a Scotsman should go for the blue --- I remember when life was so-o simple ---
