Aha - something I have been looking into too...
The levers in the link look like (copies of) the CRG levers, which I have to say are very nice!
However, the problem is the sizing - it seems the Tenere has an odd size clutch pivot. I've been speaking to ASV who also make some very tasty 'unbreakable' road and off-road replacement levers, and they thought their road lever/s for the FZ1 (new Fazer) application might fit the brake side (it also uses a pin to attuate the master cylinder) - the problem is, there is no corresponding clutch side that matches the new Tenere perch - the FZ1 version is too fat around the pivot. I suppose you could buy an OE clutch perch for a Fazer, but that is kind of defeating the object (and also unrealistically expensive)?
However, I think I have found the solution (for myself at least) - I prefer the ASV F3 off-road type levers anyway (the road versions only have limited pivoting), and have ordered the universal clutch side with a short lever and it's own perch - and importantly a vertical bar-clamp, so I can fit a mirror post to the left bar - maybe not as important in the UK of course...
Their brake lever BAF32 for a quad is also exactly the same dimensions as the Tenere lever (including the tab for the brake light switch) and is available in shorty length too, it just doesn't have the pin to attuate the master cylinder... however, I reckon a quick Dremil session will see the original pin fitting into the new lever, and job done!
If it works*, I'll post up some pictures etc.

*if it doesn't, I'll have just wasted $160...
