I appreciate the link and I'll look into it.
I had a Rumbux on my 2012. The thing is built like a bomb shelter. For me likely overkill, but I never worried about damaging anything on the bike when it was there. Today I'm riding a different Tenere and have an Altrider plate. Nowhere near as substantial as the Rumbux, but seems to be working well for me.I have a Rumbux on mine. It is one of the few systems that don't connect directly to the engine. They are out of business now. I am not sure what is out there now, since the Rumbux went on my bike back in 2013. If you are only going to be riding easier stuff it probably doesn't matter what you use. I would search around on here and see what people are using these days:
These days I am using my S10 as pretty much a street bike and the Rumbux is way overkill but it's on there and I plan keeping my 2012 so it stays bomb proof for now.I had a Rumbux on my 2012.

I don't know - it didn't have a name or number on a sign and wasn't on my gps either - just some dirt road in Wyoming off of Route 26 south of Dubois, WY.What road is this?
If the new Wyoming BDR is anything like these photos its going to be awesome.I don't know - it didn't have a name or number on a sign and wasn't on my gps either - just some dirt road in Wyoming off of Route 26 south of Dubois, WY.
Wyoming has these roads all over the place, used mostly by ranchers. I followed this one for about 25 miles and never saw where it went. Was worried about running out of fuel so I had to turn around.
Here's another one...
It's gotta be good, I'd think. I don't even know if these roads are on public or private land as there no signs at all. Going to have to go back and ride them until the end just to see what's there.If the new Wyoming BDR is anything like these photos its going to be awesome.

That would be real badYes. Unless it rains.
Here is my 2014. Both ends of North America
Correct, extra fuel. I had roto packs but the weight was behind the rear. I wanted the weight as low as possible and in front of rear axle. That pic was 1st generation. Below is 2nd gen. Gives me an extra 5 gallons.What is going on under the Panniers ? Massive Super Tanker Fuel Cell ??

Looks like nice work. Any pics on the bike?Prior to our Alaska trip , I made a much larger fuel tank for the 2012 ST
Stock Tank, Left
MVI Tank, Right
The original Idea was to have enough fuel onboard the ST to keep up with my wife on her fuel sipping V-Strom, So we had the same range between fuel stops in AK.
Some great craftsmanship!!
