So after registering and trying without any success to login via Tapatalk, here I am. After an 800 GS and an 800 Adventure, I reckoned it was time to try something (a bit) lighter, much more fun and certainly more suited to my sort of riding here in the wide open spaces of the Karoo in South Africa.

Earlier this year I bought a 660 Tener�, the more handsome white one and, while I haven't had as much time to ride it as I'd like, thus far I am enjoying it a lot more than the 800s. It seems more nimble, is significantly more comfortable for my 1,86m, looks great with a nice neat rear end and what's not to like about that great thumper sound.

I take plenty of pix so look out for some from me around the forum.

cheers
