Hi!

Not sure if a '92 XTZ660 Tenere counts, but that is my beast, on the roads of Cornwall ^.^

I found your website whilst googling the bike - the resources you have here are awesome and I look forward to contributing where I can!

The bike is my daily commuter - sadly castrated to 33bhp but needs must - looking forward to hopefully going around Spain a bit next year when I eventually work out where to get some panniers and brackets from.

Look forward to being around the forums, nice to meet you all!

- Chris

Hello and welcome.

Nice old school Tenere I do think that the coloured seat and fork gaiters should make a comeback!

BTW Hepco & Becker still make rack (and boxes) for the XTZ660 - it's good quality gear too. Clicky here

Hi Viper254 from another Chris, I,m in Truro and strangely I used to own a XTZ660 back in the mid-nineties, good bike, knocked up 62000 miles on mine. Will no doubt see you at the Tuesday evening bike meet at Hayle Mc Donald's when better weather gets here. Welcome to the forum everything is here.

Nice Old School Tenere.

A Tenere meet in Cornwall for some local trail riding sounds good!
