- - My Tenere XT660Z mods ( https://www.xt660.com/showthread.php?t=15693)

Looks remarkably similar to my Ten'.

Next mod's for me are:
Renthal Bars
Suspension
Tyres
Hi Front Guard
Remove weight (?)
Bash guard/water pump guard

Very intersted to know how much of an improvement the Hyperpro suspension is?

Have you fitted Kev's fuel mod and removed the AIS?

Nice mods Ni3ous - what mount did you use for your Garmin? Looks similar to the Nuvi I've got. Cheers.

I used this to mount the Nuvi:

I just made a steel riser in the back, to make it fit where it is, and have a good angle for view.

He, he, I understand you, but I like it, so KTM riders can see I had KTM.
Then I can explain them, that I sold that Austrian machinery, and bought a proper enduro bike.

ditto

Quite honestly I'm in two minds whether to put my beloved Ten' through the kind of off road it's really not designed for or to get me a WR/EXC in addition to take the hits..

I can see alot of money being spent just to make the Ten' OK for competition, but I can see the Ten' self destructing with the abuse...

However, I realize it is very challenging riding the Tenere offroad. And if you do, you should prepare for that and get some training on it, I guess, since handling this 200kg beast at trail riding or whatever may become a demanding task.
As far as I am concerned, I got me the Tenere as a touring and travelling bike, but I won't refuse riding offroad sections if appropriate or inevitable. However, if there is a choice, I will for sure take the WR, no question.

I think you're right flatboarder.

I really would like to enter the Big Bike Rally Challenge in 2011, but don't want to kill my Ten' in the process. Like you, I have my Ten' for travelling and want it there too, when the mood takes me.

I've ridden the WR 250 and it's a great bike, but I prefer the extra grunt with the 450. Used to race a KLX 250 back in '94 when they were the new thing - underpowered and a real bas!ard to start, but a sweet handling and light bike..
