Also the scottoiler mount behind the license plate.

thanks ill be honest i wouldnt of chosen the big touring scottoiler but it was on the bike when i bought it

the frame nounted one seems a better bet

but i thought id go with it and put a ally deflector to protect it from the rear wheel

i do however have visions of bringing it home in the back box along with the lower mudguard

im hope im wrong

I did have a similar thought to you but my idea was to mount them off the pillion peg mounts where they connect to the bike frame and then run at the same angle of the bike frame, up towards the rear grab handles.

Spooky - I was just going to say the same thing!

Mind you, if you're running the standard exhaust it's a very neat idea to have them mounted the way Jules and Minky have - and I presume they'd tuck in nicely behind the panniers if you had hard luggage fitted too?

Maybe Adventure-Spec should make a a set of brackets themselves (as they sell the tubes already) for the Tenere?
