Probably due to that new grill below the headlight.

Not sure... I think they would fit regardless as others have put them on pre-2014 models. The 2013 Yam bars are the same part numbers for the 2014 both ES and nonES so I think they'll fit but altrider just hasn't confirmed it.

I don't care so much about upper bars, I do wish they'd come up with some lower case-protectors.

Nice. What do those upper mounts bolt up to? The OE fog light holes under the headlight?

That appears to be the case - I think that's how the OEM bars attach as well?

Yeah...and Yamaha says those only fit with modification.

A few answers to some of the questions here:
- We’ll have a prototype later this week or early next week, so we can get pictures on the bike then.
- There’s a 2014 Tenere sitting in our parking lot right now, so we should be able to say for sure whether or not these bars will fit the new generation in the next few days.
- The uppers utilize the OEM fog light holes to mount in the center, but the majority of the strength comes from the lower crash bar mounting location.

Let me know if you have any other questions!

What is the purpose of the upper bar?

Jeremy - I am interested in coming over and purchasing some. I do have Denali D2's in those fog light holes. Do you think the brackets can fit behind them?
