34L Tenere tank mounting
I am currently mounting a 34L tenere tank (and seat,and side panels and oil cooler) on my 89 us model xt 600. Seems to fit quite well but I am curious about what the mount is supposed to look like at the point where the back of the tank meets the front of the seat. If anyone has some pics or a link to shed some light on this, I would be eternally greatfull. natepollock at hotmail dot com
Thanks,
Nate

I'm looking for a tank to do the same - can't find a complete '83/'84 Tenere in the US...

Yeah the tenere are kind of rare over on this side of the pond, When I meet people they figure my bike is french built. I was lucky to find one of several that were swiss imports here.
If you need some more/ different pictures than what is on that site I will help you out.
