HOWIE...
I have a mate of mine who is a bit technically challenged that has a BMW F650GS Dakar 04. The waterpump, thermostat packed up on the bike which I then replaced for him aswell as a new radiator and thermostat (found a tiny leak on the radiator).
It now has a new problem where it blowns out...
I'm a big Yamaha fan and I must say that I'm a bit dissapointed. It looks fat and can't imagine it with a pair of knobblies.
They should have rather called it the Super TDM than throw away the Tenere name.
A mate of mine got one in an e-mail also and he is here in the UK. Car description is correct but not the registration.
He says the e-mail seems all legit.
I think it's some sort of damper that Yamaha thought would catch on but didn't or wasn't really needed.
I removed the ring from mine after I had the wheel rebuild and cant tell the difference or have had any problems. Earlier XT's and Tenere's didn't have the rubber ring.
If you look at all...
