The red brake lines are staying, as is the oil tank (all my bikes have white frames & red oil tanks, regardless of colour)..... might change the swingarm stickers though...

Re: Geoff's 3AJ rebuilds....
Geoff, the Tenere #2 looks really nice, one thing that would be a dot on the i in my opinion would be yellow front disc protectors, but sure a head turner as it is. The golden rims rock.
So Tenere #5, how does the base case look?

Re: Geoff's 3AJ rebuilds....
Looking good Geoff, does that peg (15mm lower) make that much of a difference?

Yes it does mate, very comfortable.... especially with my fucked knees....
One thing though, if you're just using these on the road, the sharp points on the surface of the pegs could do with filing off a bit... could be
a bit dodgy....

Tenere 5 came from Shadwell, a member on here who'd bought it to do up... think he ran out of patience with it, couldn't get it started. I'm not surprised to be honest, the inside of the carbs were gummed up really bad, probably the worst I've seen. But it's probably the best one I've bought, condition wise, or it was till I started nicking stuff off it
These were his pics after he bought it...


The bike wasn't as complete when I got it, Shadwell had stripped various parts off it.... carbs, fuel pump, etc...
It's been stood & not started for about 14 years now I reckon & only covered about 18,000 miles...
The future is not what it used to be....
