Well done mate, great mod coming from a simple idea. As mentioned above YAMAHA really should have thought of stuff like this as the TENERE is their premier "offroad" bike.....:icon_scoot[1]::icon_scoot[1]: How hard are they to produce? I would be interested in one, even if it meant leaving the plastic part with you for a while......

Very good.

Once you get the OE cans off there is no end to the availability of space for this sort of mod.

Thanks Kev. The dimensions are difficult because of the the complex curves/ tapering width. The only way to do it is to make a mould of the mudgaurd and then shape surfboard foam for the outer skin and epoxy the two halves together.
For someone who can work with fibre glass and epoxies its not too difficult, just be prepared to be without your bike for two weeks.

The mould I've got will help me get it closer to what I want and I will have the mounting brackets laser cut, cutting the bracket off the stock exhaust was not ideal.
I will post more pictures as I go along but need to ride my bike for a few days before I start the second and third ones. By then I should be quite good at it
and who knows, maybe I can make a few more :) if there's an interest.

Will do a swap for some custom made pannier rails....... LOL

I'm impressed. Hope that Yamaha lurks around this forum. This is something that should be part of the 2011 release!

too bad this only works without a standard exhaust

Great mod, make a few , I wa t one;)

Have started the new mould so it will take a few weeks.
