I got ripped on for posting about this, a lot of the stuff is junk, but there are some parts that are worth a look

Why?
It's parts, I could use a swing arm as mine has a wear spot in the crotch from the Woddy's 18" wheel wearing on it.
Nothing huge but you can flex the spot with your thumb.
If they don't like the thread pull it. ::008::

What, who doesn't want a bent-out-of-shape radiator (no fan) for $250 + shipping?


This seller is whack. You could possibly get a used Tenere in working condition for cheaper than buying all those parts at the advertised price.

wow...
$3 grand for a motor, without tb's and everything else?

He's a breaker, and thinks that people will bite, as it's only one tenere that's getting parted

The thing is people are buying parts!
Some is trash god knows if the frame is straight..
My friend had a pristine Moto Morini 3½ had id below value, couldn't get any bites.
He parted the thing out and damn near doubled his profit. :-\

I've been following Ebay for anything Super Tenere based and these things really don't so well. I won an auction for an OEM rear carrier for $20 + $5 shipping. I just told the guy to resell it since it was a steal and I really didn't need it.

Now, if that guy was selling a radiator fan, I might have actually bit.

A broken upper triple tree with key gas cap and ignition switch for $155.00 and a bent fork tube for $155.00? ???

But he is selling parts non the less.

Wow, a tenere horn for $10 (he should just give that away for free).

I can relate. A while back I parted out a vstrom 650 with a bent frame and forks.
I got 75% of the money back that I put into it, and still had a motor, tank and other odds and ends that I gave away to friends.
