At last time for service. After a very disappointing 2000km last year she got new oil&filter, lubed the shifter and brake. General overlook and good to go.
What you did to your Tenere today??!!

Is that a collection in the background? Like that burnt orange Honda.

This is Awesome!!!I guess this counts. I finished building my toolbox organizers and toolbox dolly that holds my tools for working on the Super Tenere. The dolly began life as a furniture dolly from Harbor Freight.
Three 2x4's, one 1x4, and a glued up shelf from Lowe's formed most of the dolly. I wanted it to be small enough to tuck into a corner, and all the tool carts I found were too big. The socket organizer was made from a piece of half inch plywood, and a bunch of 1/2", 3/8" and 1/4" dowel rods. The ratchet organizer is another piece of half inch plywood; I traced the outlines of my ratchets, extensions, etc onto the plywood, then cut them out with a coping saw.
I put an LED light under the tabletop, so it would illuminate the lower tool box and make it easier to see the contents. There's enough clearance to be able to open the lid on the lower box without having to remove it from the dolly.
I made holders for my breaker bars from 1/8" aluminum angle and pieces cut out from a discarded cutting board.
In its new home in the garage.

Can’t wait to see the mounted pics!
I made the support for the carplay screen... with a 2mm sheet, it's enough to give it firmness. I thought it was a good position for everything to be harmonious….There is enough space to place it further back..or you can advance the screen a bit, and lower it in front of the bar. I'll see later where connect the power supply
I'm very interested to follow this along. Let us know how well it works? If the wireless connection is strong? If there are glitches in the mapping system working and overall system as it runs?

Built a double U-bolt mount for my Zumo XT, for those really bumpy rides where you want the mount to stay put. Hardware store U-bolts, scrap aluminum, and some ABS plastic. Had to buy the threaded RAM ball from Amazon.
if you don't want it to move, you can make a small hole between the nuts, thread it to size, and place one or two studs. It will make a small mark on the bar…but the mount will no longer seek to rotate on the barBuilt a double U-bolt mount for my Zumo XT, for those really bumpy rides where you want the mount to stay put.

Mine doesn't rotate. Each U bolt has a plastic bushing that spreads the load around the bar and increases the surface area between the mount and the bar, which increases grip. You can yank on mine and it won't move, and the low load u bolts won't mar or crush the accessory rail.

This is a better photo of the U-bolt, that shows the plastic bushing:
And this is the bushing on the underside of the top plate, that rests on the accessory rail:
And this is a better shot of the mount without the accessory rail:
The internal diameters of the bushings are just slightly larger than the accessory rail, so the bushings make contact almost the entire circumference of the rail. It grips really tightly with a minimum of torque applied to the acorn nuts; they're only about a half turn past finger tight.

So far, it's working out great, Kruzzin5. I love not having to move a couple stacked up toolboxes around trying to find all the right tools.

Bought it! Have been looking for the right one for about two years. Finally got one added to the stable.

good eye, that's a buddy's bike.
Washed mine and put on the summer windshield.
Must be the day for blue!

If you were closer it would be sold... despite the wife's reaction!
