Hello

Hi everyone,
I've just bought a 2012 660 Tenere - literally two weeks ago - so have only got out a couple of times so far. I have been riding dirt bikes for a while, but the temptation of being able to pack up my kit and head off was too much! I've fitted lowering links and installed a rack. I'm picking up a new wind shield tomorrow morning and am sure there will many other mods to follow. I'm looking forward to learning all the tips and tricks from the forum peeps. I am also very keen to go on a few rides if there is anyone in the Melbourne area that is interested in going for a ride? I live in Croydon, Vic, au.
Have a good weekend,
Paul.
