Hi, this is my new setup for this season... Bumot 40/36L side panniers and Kappa KGR52 top box. I use them all together only for longer trips. Side panniers lids don't open when the top box is in place, and that doesn't bother me.

Finally! Now I can say that spring has also arrived here in the north. The snow and ice are gone and the sun is shining from the full sky. I have been waiting for this day for a long time and now it's true, the 2024 season has started! :) A short test ride today on the winding roads of the...

Welcome, from Finland. Slava Ukraini!

Yes, I'm a little drunk. Sierra1, yep, google translates that "perkele" means "devil"? To us, it doesn't mean that or really anything else. We just say "perkele" when things don't go well. I can't say it better but we say it in almost every sentence.:D Then someone says that we Finns are the...

Feeling much better now! :D

PERKELE! :mad: This strong Finnish curse word tells all my thoughts when I look out the window today. I can't even tell anymore if this hellish winter is coming or going!? So... Tenere stays in the garage, I walk to the nearest pub and drink my head full!! :confused:

New Zumo XT and Zumolock mounting today. The first impression is really nice and the screen is much brighter than my old Zumo 396. Tomorrow... hopefully, the long awaited opening of the 2024 season after a long winter, if the weather is warm and sunny. :)

Great job and tips with the photos! This is one example of the things why I really like this forum. :)

Today's tinkering... Repair of the clutch master cylinder and change of fluids. I used the Tourmax repair kit and all the parts were identical when I compared them to the oem parts.

Moi ilkka! Welcome from South-Karelia, Finland

Thanks, that would be nice. I will definitely let you know when I come to Estonia next time. Last time, my FJR friend and I came by ferry to the port of Muuga and drove smaller roads to Pärnu, as I remember, something like this... Jägala-Kehra-Kose-Rapla- etc... Via Baltica is definitely...

It's nice to hear that you liked the place and especially in the area (Kerimäki-Savonlinna) there are really beautiful lake landscapes. I've always lived near the eastern border (Lappeenranta), and got used to the fact that the border is about 20 km away. It is understandable and even wise to be...

Yep. :)

March is still wintry here, but we are heading towards spring. They say that winter in Finland is long and cold as hell, while summer is short and only has a little snow! :D

Towards Finnish spring and a new driving season in icy landscapes. Not yet with Tenere, but still with the power of Yamaha... :)
