...but its got to go.
Hi guys after a lot of thought im getting rid of the tenere.
The main reason i got the bike was to do a bit of overlandin and tour the uk, but i found that im not doing any of that and only venturing off-road once every month on average.
so ive decided that if 90% of my riding is on the road then i can probably live without the 10% of it, hence the want of a road bike.
Im either gonna get a XJ6 or ER6 or some other perky middle weight naked.
Im just finding no need for anything the Ten does and feelling left needing everthing it doesnt.
But anyway ill pop back now and again and im sure ill see some of you at the shop.
Keep it up and i can honestly say the best community i found for a bike.

Have Fun
Ben.

Looks like a black XJ6 09 model less than 5K on it, and getting a top dolla trade in on the Ten, even though its dead.
