PLEASE DONT BUY THERE CRASH BARS FOR YOUR TENERE THEY DONT FIT

Thats a real shame because i think they look like the perfect crash bars...there not big but protect all the important parts.

Just looking back at the first post ,can you stick up some pics of why their not fitting ,i had to remove and cut a small piece fron the reg bracket to fit the front mountings for the bash plate ,i just wonder is it something simple like that you need to do ?

just fitted mine today and i also noticed the bars lower on the left so i think this the norm.
i also noticed that i needed a spacer for the right side back bolt as i was using the yamaha aluminium bash plate .....the plastic bashplate is wider in this area.

BTW the original yamaha engine bar that came with the bike had cracked the bracket on the front right(and the weld hadn't failed surprisingly) . I may have been guilty of this when i dropped this bike in the lakes at the 2011 meet.....doh.
Hadnt noticed all this time that one side holding it all on.....
