TOPIC: I only went for some chain lube......

I only went for some chain lube...... 10 months, 1 week ago #151658

..... and bought a 660 Tenere!! Well it was crying out!! Proper heart over head moment! I was only prophesizing on here few days ago how I was going to uprate my perfectly good,mint low mile 650 alp with a few goodies and now i've traded her. The deal was bang on and its the yam blue/black speed block colour..... you know the one that should come with racing numbers and african sand as standard!! mmm lol. wanted one for ages but never came across the right one etc.... pick her up Friday looking forward toi some miles on the ten, but if anyone wants a mint 07plate 650 alp get yaself down to shorrocks at preston.... its a goodun. to top it off I forgot my chain lube in all the excitment!!

I only went for quick look around in Bill Smiths in Chester with my son. We both walked out having purchased bikes. Mine was the tiger 800xc his was a Daytona 675. 14,000ish miles later never looked back, love my bike to bits.

Adventure motorcycling is a challenge for those who go but only a dream for those who stay behind.

growing old is compulsory growing up is optional!

Excellent purchase good luck with it. Sometimes these spur of the moment decisions turn out to be the best decision you ever made.

Very under rated machine.

I've now covered more mileage on my tenere in 3 months as the previous owner covered in 3 years.

Nice bike mate welcome to the club, you got the best colour.
I'm really happy with mine, they're great fun for not to much money and cheap to run to.

Chaos is the only camoflage that incompetence needs to operate at full capacity.

Sometimes it takes a whole tank of petrol on the bike before i can think straight again.
