MINT is the word. My white 13 is only a few months old, there is not a scratch, not a swirl mark, its never really even been dirty. its a tall order, but is there anyone out there who has a blue tenere in similar condition who would want to go white? I don't dislike my white bike, but the blue reminds me of my first YZF-R1 in the late 90's. Just putting this out here to test the waters...

I like blue too but I got a white one due to availability issues. But in the end, guess I like white more than blue now.

Whipit, I assume you only want to swap because your bike is too fast for you ? Everyone knows white is the fastest colour.. ::013::

ha ha yes my white model is hard to handle! I need the mellowing effect of blue.

I think the only blue stuff that would be a direct swap would be 2012 stuff?

I may be wrong, but I am pretty sure that other than color, nothing has changed bodywork wise since the Tenere was released to the current year...

That is my understanding as well. Changes have been to the dash, switchgear and the windshield mount (on the hardware side).

well that is good news, I had assumed that the front of the bike had changed and that the bodywork would not interchange. I doubt anyone wants to trade off 14 or 15 blue bodywork for the 13 color scheme , but you never know!
