The 600 does have more chugging ability than the CRF300, making it more relaxing to ride gnarly stuff. Carb is also a bit more forgiving than EFI, especially at low rpm. That engine would most probably be happy hovering between 3000 and 4000 rpm.

I did the same thing, when I did my Africa tour I went on a Transalp 650, carb, no electronics and a workhorse. 15 000km and all I had to fix was a blown fork seal once. I agree with her about all the electronics on bikes. Its also adding to the massive cost of bikes..
Lyk vir my maar soos n KLR......
Maar dan weer....
Well, her experience has grown since then. I've said some stuff over the last months and years that I don't agree with now.

Her picking this bike will cause their prices to go up more than they are already 2hand and hopefully Yamaha will wake up and manufacture them again with FI this time.

True that the prices will probably go up but honestly before this nobody really wanted a Tenere 600

En klomp Duitsers en Franse, hulle val oor hulle voete om die goed op te raap. @dirtWarp het ook sy Tenere kwaai gelike maar hy gaan dit nie in die thread erken nie
Wat sal jy sê is nicer vir rondom die wêreld toer grond en teerpad?
