Is it even possible to say bike and refer to a bicycle?

Great, another off-road biker. What a great country to ride.
The TA is just the right bike for it. Got a Super Tenere myself.

Nice pictures there m8.

Cheers

The Tenere resembles the Translalp. How big is its engine? the TA's were good for off road riding, I just wish they hadn't installed road wheels on them. If they had off-road wheels it would have been perfect and we could have gone even more in-land.

Re: Back from Greece - Shifty - 10-27-2008

The Super Tenere is a twin cilinder, 750cc. The normal Tenere is a thumper with 600cc. Had one too, still miss it.  :'(

Tho the ST has a 21" frontrim its a big lump to drive through terrain but as we say, practise makes a master and im far from being a master lol.

Hya!

When it comes down to the beast, you got to take that one:
The Mother of all Offroaders

You cant beat it, but it can beat you :-).

Great bike. I wouldnt change for any new one (except for a HP2 maybe ;-) )!


Hey Shifty, leave the pic, it´s a nice one :-)!

Re: Back from Greece - Shifty - 10-27-2008

OMG Tony, the good oll XT500 is on top of my wish list.  :-*
I would swap the Tenere for a good XT if I ever get the chance.

So this baby is yours??? Bloody hell, you lucky bassid.  Wink

Treat her like a lady, she's worth it.

Re: Back from Greece - Variable - 10-27-2008

I got a Yamahaa XT 350cc myself at home, but i'm thinking of selling it since i got a damned company car..

Re: Back from Greece - TonyMarony - 10-27-2008

yes, the lady is mine ;-).

I would never sell this bike, even though i drove nearly nothing this year. I just change the oil every year, thats all and she´s fine :-). Whenever i want to drive, i go out, kick and rush :-)... Taxes are cheap for this small bikes, so its cheap anyways. I wouldnt sell it Var, if i was you ;-).


Re: Back from Greece - Shifty - 10-27-2008

Nooo, dont sell the XT Variable. Israel is a great place for a XT.



Re: Back from Greece - Variable - 10-29-2008

Believe me, I'm the last one who would want to sell such a great bike. But the insurance is too high in this country for a bike that is rarely in use, it's around 860 Euros a year!
