Hi, I ride a 2012 Tenere - amongst some other bikes... I was recently reached out to by an admin saying I should make a post so they don't delete my account and block my IP address, which seems extreme. So here it is. I mostly come here for advice on modifications, repairs, or returning my bike to stock condition (for instance I bought the bike with an aftermarket slip on muffler that is too loud... trying to find a stock one to put back on...). Thanks.

For whatever purpose(s), the site was getting bombarded with fake membership requests. To the point that they are searching out members that haven't been active in awhile. I'm assuming that if you get an inquiry from admin, and don't respond . . . . you're considered fake, or to have moved on.

And, on the morbid side . . . . with covid issues . . . . there's no way to tell if a member is "still with us".

So, there's got to be someone here that has a stock can . . . . 'cuz there's been plenty of those decibel factories mounted.

And, welcome from Texas.

Froglad welcome from Mexico! even though you had gotten some notes and for sure you will continue having help from the forum membres, as well you can share some of your experiences and knowledge in bikes. We are happy to have many people sharing tech info, ride info, photos ( are the best), so looking for your participation. Regards.

There is definitely somebody out here with a stock can for you, i suggest you put your question in the "wanted" section.

Welcome from Idaho. I had an aftermarket can on mine as well. Went back to the stock can.

This makes sense - I had no idea about the robots, and I hadn't thought about the more morbid side. Anyhow, thanks, for the welcome!
