Got a bit of a busy day this Saturday as I'm picking this up

Slight issue being that it's in Bolton and I'm down in Kent!

4 hour train trip up and similar time to ride it home

Can't wait to be back on a big single [emoji41]

Oops a little description would help!

It's a 2009 yam Tenere 660z

Full service history etc

And I don't mind admitting I'm very excited about getting it [emoji106]

Very very nice! Certainly wouldn't mind one of those myself. Good time to snap it up too, seeing as the big singles are going the way of the dinosaur after this year! I'm sure the used prices will make a bit of a jump accordingly.

Picked it up yesterday, 5 hours later I got home after taking bit of a scenic route along the A515 before jumping on the M1

Nearly made it home without a drenching. As soon as i joined the M25 I knew I couldnt avoid a soaking and I certainly got one! The surface water was pretty bad so I dawdled along at a steady pace

Apart from that, the ride was amazing, great bike, very pleased, need to get it in the shed to fit some toys but the gateway is too narrow :roll:

Trip to Wickes as soon as I get paid me thinks!

Thought I'd get a pic of it in the showroom as it'll never be that clean again 8-)


In the shop window there was this thing

H2R? I saw a second hand H2 going for about 18k... Shame it has a digital odometer as I was really curious how many miles the previous owner had done before he realised he'd made a terrible terrible mistake :lol:

Can't recall what it was.

The road version is cheaper apparently, that was purely a track bike

 

Yeah the H2R is the track only at 41k the road version (H2) is loads cheaper at a BARGAIN 22k! :lol: :lol:

Nice XT! I had an XT660X, loved it. That engine is bulletproof, you just can't kill them (trust me I inadvertently tried as this was my first "big" bike!)

Excellent Yamaha build quality as usual, and you gotta love that thump! :D

Another pic taken today whilst I was out testing the retrofitted standard pipe, the after market one was just a bit too loud
