Hey Everyone,

I picked up a leftover 2012 Tenere in November. I was out for a ride on my V-Strom and stopped in at the local dealer to warm up - just so happened he still had a '12 on the floor and he gave me what I paid for the FZ1 and the V-Strom that I traded in.

I got to ride it less than 10 miles before it started snowing and hasn't stopped since - ugh.

In the meantime I've been busy spending money on goodies for it.

It shares the heated garage with my 2009 KTM 250 XC-W. Needless to say, the Tenere is my street bike. The KTM is almost 1/3 the weight of the ST and handles much better in the dirt!

Already picked up a few pointers here as well as a few parts - thanks1

Jim

Welcome! We got about 20" of snow on the ground here and I'm not liking it either. It must be killing you not to ride your new bike.

Welcome on, Jim from Buffalo. Nice score on the Tenere. You'll love it. Sorry about the snow, but I hear you. Been snowing here for 5 months. ::025:: Let us know what you think once you've put the spurs to 'er. ::004:: to the Forum. R. ::022::
