winklepie Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 Yeah thats my Tenere on its side on Ruta 40 Argentina. I got blown off of it by the wind. It was a little bit breezy to say the least!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CameronMac Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 great adventure, reminds me of a talking heads song...... Awesome adventure! I think I remember you posting here when the Tenere broke down in BC...? I remember thinking about what an amazing trip it would be to do some sort of cross continent / country tour. Wish I could have been in your shoes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winklepie Posted January 25, 2011 Author Share Posted January 25, 2011 Indeed i was posting when it broke down. I was stuck at a friends in Calgary. They dont make the XT in North America so it was a pain getting part numbers etc. After i downloaded a wiring diagram and got hold of a multi meter i traced the fault to a dead rectifier. I crossed referenced it and it was the same as an R1 which they do have in N.A but it still would have taken a week to get one from Europe and after nearly a week of mincing around i had had enough and came home. The bike is still over there and i plan to go back in a couple of months and resume the adventure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
