Well, it turns out I won't be able to take my bike to India after all, so I'm selling it now. The bike was built for extreme-condition riding in the Himalayas, no expense spared, to wit:
2017 Super Tenere non-ES bike for sale. Hard-to-find Sand paint. Always stored indoors, and wintered at a dealership. Many expedition-grade upgrades, including:
Full Tractive suspension (this brand is what Touratech relabels for their own brand) front and rear. Front is their Full X-Treme Fork cartridge kit with 160Nm springs and 36mm pistons (huge upgrade from the 20mm OEM cartridges), rear shock is their X-Treme, which has separate high- and low-speed damping controls, again with high-rate spring. Bike is set up for a ~250lb rider (including gear), plus a 150lb passenger or 50lb of luggage. The original suspension parts will be included. Note: suspension upgrade not shown in the initial picture. Suspension was ordered through Beemershop in California and installed by 30-year master suspension tech at Cycles 128 in Beverly, MA
T-Rex Racing Full Crash Cage and Skid Plate
OEM Yamaha Accessories headlight protector bought from Belgium (Labeled "For Offroad Use Only")
85% Michelin Anakee Wild tires, original 85% OEM Battleax tires included as well
Sargent rider and passenger seats; original seats included as well
Altrider aluminum rear rack (rare); OEM rack included as well
Eastern Beaver fuse block installed
Doubletake mirrors; OEM mirrors included as well
Bike has right at 6000 miles on the odometer as of Dec 3, 2023
Recent maintenance by dealer including air filter, clutch and brake fluid flush, diff fluid change and Swingarm pivot lubrication. Battery replaced last winter with top-tier Yuasa Gel battery. Bike has had oil changed yearly regardless of mileage.
Note: Items not included: Luggage, GPS mount.
More photos coming which will also show the Tractive suspension.
