Just picked up a 2017. Can’t wait to register it and ride once the snow clears!



Current stablemates:
Custom Bandit 600 I built and a Valkyrie
Greetings from a fellow NYer,
Congrats on the purchase and welcome to this forum.
Looks like that first pic is probably from either the CT/Port Jefferson or CT/Orient Point ferry....
Where on LI are you?

Yup that was the Orient Point Ferry. I’m out on the North Fork. Where are you? I’m hoping to meet up with some locals to do some trips with. Plenty of group riding experience, not so well versed off road save mountain bikes.

I am within NYC.
I spend a lot of time riding out to the North Folk as well as doing the Shelter Island loop then over to Sag Harbor and buzzing around the South Fork.
Faves of mine are Cutchogue, Southold and East Marion. Every time I ride out to the North Fork I make too many stops and eat more then I should.
We can definitely met up and go scooting all about directions North/East/West/South....

Congratulations on the Tenere ! looks like it came with a very nice seat.
I’m a retired truck driver and have been to NYC very many times, used to have a goal to ride motorcycle over the George Washington Bridge and through NYC but seem to no longer have that goal.

good to see some Tenere riders in New York. I was at Ft. Drum for a few weeks in the 80s , what I saw was a beautiful state to explore.

You mean you never dreamt of riding through the Midtown Tunnel? Because GPS said save 40 minutes. Which turned into 15?

Plates have been issued according to the dmv website!

Any day now I hope!! Like lightning!

Maybe how I went about it helped:

Since in NY we are mailing direct to a facility of our choosing in the county we are registering in, I chose a smaller office that’s a bit more customer service friendly.

Included a cover letter with a list of all the forms/docs attached so it looks straightforward and complete with my contact info and assurance of quick communication if anything needed to be clarified.

I sent it certified so again maybe extra attention. (It’s signed for in bulk but maybe it’s a better pile).

Can you tell I want to ride it?!!
