r/Tenere700

Atleast until winter….
Current setup;
-Full exhaust (made the FMF muffler fit)
-La kid airbox
-2wdw tune
-AXP skidplate
-kke wheels 2.5” rear
-tusk dsport/pirelli race tires
-14t front sprocket
-rally seat
-cruise control
-bark busters
-tail tidy
-high fender
-fork and shock springs
-lithium battery

It’s a Absolute ripper! 25lbs lighter than it rolls off the showroom floor

Narrow tire "tusk waypoint" seems to get a better bite than all of the 150 size tires I've ran in the past..much better on gravel roads imo.

Vancouver > Tyax (via Hurley) > Williams Lake (via Chilcotins) > Bella Coola

Got turned around due to cancelled ferry to Port Hardy. Had to do it in reverse but on highways instead…

Bella Coola > Lac La Hache (via Farwell Dunes) > Vancouver (via Clinton & Cache Creek)

I do not recommend trying to connect between tyax and Williams lake by going straight up the middle. Technically impassible but we made it work but nearly got stranded in the process.

Approx 2200kms over 6 days with a mix of camping and regular accommodations. Nobody died and it was a proper adventure with approximately 50% off-road (some really gnarly). 10/10, but would do it differently if I had to do it again. 😅

Setup:
2021 T7, Hidenau K70 Ranger Tires, miscellaneous bits installed everywhere (too many to list), Mosko R40s, added 20L stinger bag, mosko gnome tank bag, 8L giant loop fuel bag which we needed for one of the days, and a backpack for hydration and snacks.

Tires are pretty fucked after the trip. I’ll ride the rest of the season with them but noticeably worn. I can make a separate review post if anyone is interested.

Caught a nail today..thought it was tubeless I was wrong was out of cell reception limped it to ranger station tried using the slime but I wasted the tube and tire getting it off the mountain!….now time to find a great new rear tire for majority on road but some random off road adventures in the PNW!!

I bought the Rhinowalk 48L soft bags after reading a lot about them online. I think they're a cool addition to the bike and they're super useful.

I'm using these super hot days (I live in northern Italy) to test them before I depart for a long motocamping trip, they're durable, easy to clean and waterproof, what's not to like?

Got it at 370km today , im riding it everyday , didnt offroad it yet , coming from a 1250gs , its perfect besides comfort , im getting a comfort yamaha saddle and some crash bars ,but i got a question tho , its my first time owning a chain driven motorcycle so im kinda overwhelmed by the maintenance,how does it go? I know the process but the timing of when to do it is still confusing to me , i got a chain cleaner and lube and a brush for now and i know i wont use them yet

Hii! I found this deal on marketplace and is listed for 700 euros all the boxes brand is Evo and the supports, the guy had them installed on a 2023 tenere, is it possible to mount them on my 2026 ? Or does it change the system ? Or can i retrofit them ? Ty

Took me just over a year. I bought it June 28 of 2025, and I finally hit 10k miles on Independence Day

On the way up I lost a few things on it, and beat the shit out of the bike… and myself 😂.

Okay, I’ve decided I want to get a set of lower crash bars. I also need to get a skid/bash plate which is priority as I’m running the stock one. I love the look of the T-Rex Racing skid with its protection and the oil filter removable door. I also like their lower crash bars, but not a fan of how they bolt to the bike (into the engine from what I can see in pictures). Garda makes some lower crash bars that from the pictures, seem to mount better.

I guess my question is, is the Garda low crash bars compatible with the T-Rex skid plate?

I’m more of a buy once, cry once purchaser. So if you can recommend anything else that is similar I’m completely open to ideas.

Thank you!

Yesterday I came across this article about some guys who rebuilt a new Tenere into a flat track monster, they custom made a new tank and subframe in order to make YZF450 fairings fit. How difficult do you guys think it would be to fit dirtbike fairings on a stock Tenere without custom making a whole subframe and tank?

I’m in love with how the fairings look, but I don’t have the capability to custom make a ton of stuff in metal. Reckon some 3D printing and a bunch of zipties could do the trick?

Been riding this ‘25 for a year now. First trip a year ago I thought I might have bitten off more than I could chew. Now, this is all I ride. I let my buddies ride my KTM 350 and Yamaha 450, I don’t even touch them anymore. I’m 6’3, 210, this thing is the perfect size for me. Heavy as shit when I go down on it, but this is as close to a perfect bike as I could ask for.

Hi folks, through the last months I changed a few parts of my Tenere 700 (2024).

I am quite proud of this because I'm not a mechanic at all. I just know how to write software.

Even though I didn't do anything else than mounting some after-market parts, I thought I'd share here. Especially knowing how limited the instructions were.

I have received some great help from the community here. Both in inspiration and tips when I got stuck.

I recorded some of the changes, including my mistakes. Hopefully this helps someone else (including my future me).
