I always enjoy the pack-mule pics!
That's where this bike stands TALL in the real ADV world.

Its easy to get wrong...make sure the brackets from touratech are in the locations you want them in before drilling in the base plate. They make a ONE bottle and a TWO bottle and Two liter jug and Three liter Jug. If you plan to move things around from side to side be careful the 2 liter jug picture in white and the 3 liter in black have different drops...meaning one bracket is longer by about a half inch.

The location is fine (we are discussing a Super Tenere after all!) and the board resizes the pics you upload, so post away!

I just traded my Triumph Explorer for a 2015 Tenere ES. I'm still in the farkling process.
I transferred my Hepco Becker cases over from my Explorer (purchased new brackets), added Altrider engine guards & skid plate, upgraded my GPS to a Zumo 590LM with a locking Touratech mount, added Skene P3 tail lights, added an OEM touring windscreen, added mirror wideners from luckybike.com and hooking up my Denali D2 lights this week. Heated grips come standard on the ES so no additional money spent there, thank goodness!
Now it's time for a road trip!!!! -JEP-

I'm kinda partial to blue but I like that red the more I see it. I'm trying to find a dealer that has both colors on the floor to drool over.

What steered you away from the Explorer? What are the major differences you've found?

I had several mechanical issues with the Explorer, 2nd & 6th gears went out (4+ weeks in the shop), gear indicator & cruise control went out (2 weeks in shop), and 4 factory recalls in the less than 2 years I owned it. Triumph stood behind their warranty even though I had over 42K miles on the bike. But basically I just lost confidence in the bike. However, I have several friends that have many trouble free miles on their Triumphs. -JEP-
