(also amusingly, if you type that as one word, the forum censors the tw*t out of the middle) @Captmoto: Has anyone actually managed to crack a Tenere tank? I can't remember seeing any mention on here of anyone doing so. It's pretty well protected in a crash - the grey side panels and the bar ends touch down first. I've crashed mine countless times, as well as dropping the tank onto a concrete floor from about a metre in the air while working on the bike.

Bike looks grand single_minded, have fun!
UT, I believe one of our antipodean brethren cracked a tank by using it and a car as a brake. I can certainly vouch for impact and abrasion resistance on the tank. They are injection moulded nylon. |

Battle scars
Well she has brought me home, just as I expected, but not without scars:
notice that the sidestand is missing... right side footpeg snapped off ... half ... but got that welded at a local black smith: 
... lost a few indicators too... and the left-side bumper panel finally gave in: grinded on rocky grounds... 
Will do a short write up of the event soon... HJ
