Tenere XT600Z 1VJ - history and functionality - Red Carpet Reviews #1

[@julianamiet101]

Last summer I bought a 1VJ and drove it 10’069 km from Switzerland to the North Cape and back. In those 5 weeks i have done highway, twisties, some TET trails and was always camping. I couldn’t have wished for a better bike. I love it so much end absolutely love the joy and 80‘s vibe it brings to my daily commute to work. Looking forward to more amazing videos❤

[@bringthekickback]

Awesome! That’s what they are build for 🤟🏻

[@peterpanimg]

You make a good case for this! Noraly from Itchy Boots just got this too I think.

[@fanydc7186]

I have xt 600z two lights. year 89. Amazing motorcycle 🥰

[@arn7332]

I like the carpet, nice touch 😅 Looking myself 1VJ to restore

[@flutalors11]

Very nice video, Thanks Man! Lots of fun and good sense. You gonna spread the XT 600 passion all over the place with such an enthusiasm. I had a 2KF 25 years ago in France, & loved it! I just bought a 1984 49N (L) in the US, to renew with the simple pleasure of kick-and-ride. I have to learn again the defects/issues to solve with the first models, as there were some. What I remember is the basic rule forced upon all kick-riders : the number of kicks is proportional to the size of the crowd of watchers...

[@bringthekickback]

Thanks a lot mate! And I know exactly what you’re saying about the kickstarting with audience 😆 Awesome you bought that ‘84 model! Is it the same as 34L? Mainly weaknesses: - stator - oil pump - suspension - tank leeks - driving shaft wear

[@DrazenCika]

Thanks for bringing this, great job and fun to watch and educational even for someone very familiar with Teneres!

[@bringthekickback]

Thanks a lot Drazen, means a lot 🤙

[@stijnvanetten1732]

[@davevooys1476]

Nice video ! Cant wait for more !!

[@bringthekickback]

Thanks a lot mate. There’s three more video’s coming on the Tenere. And we’re shooting the next enduro bike this month.

[@Jonis_cool-stuff]

Good Video. Im Happy that young People hold the good old enduros alive. I have an 2kF and 34l, and i had a 1VJ. Its like a time travel back in Time. For me it will be always the best vehicle of all time. They have a very special charakter. I have 2 Videos on my channel of my xt's, but in German language. Maybe i should do it in english. Where are you from?

[@bringthekickback]

Thanks alot my friend! We’re from the Netherlands 🤟🏻🤟🏻 let’s keep te soul Alice

[@kickbhack7610]

Nice episode guys ! Really like the channel's name btw 😉🤙

[@kickbhack7610]

@@bringthekickback Not my real name unfortunately haha. But I would proudly wear your gear 💪

[@AlexandreRossiBarcellos]

Great video about Tenere, congrats! I love my XT 600Z Tenere 2VG 1992. Sucsses with your KZbin chanel.

[@bringthekickback]

Thanks man! I didn’t know the type code 2VG yet. It’s the same as 3aj right? Where are you located? Kind regards

[@AlexandreRossiBarcellos]

@@bringthekickback I live in Brazil. The 2VG version was sold in Brazil between 1990 and 1993. Here is a link to a video of it on a sand trail in southern Brazil: kzbin.info/www/bejne/r3PSfpSJl8yjpLs

[@bringthekickback]

@@AlexandreRossiBarcellos aaah amigo Brasileiro! Queria muito voltar pra lá! Valeu🤙

[@alxx1378]

Had the xt 550 82 model it was great for everything except riding on highways. After 120 klm it was almost impossible to ride. I kept it for 14 years.

[@AndersRamm]

Where did you buy the handguards and covers?🙂

[@MentaClassics]

Great video. Did you build that head light tower yourself or can you buy that somewhere? Lekker bezig 💪🏼

[@bringthekickback]

Thanks mate! It’s a set from boxermoto, a French company.

[@brunoaquilia6536]

Ciao Per i portapacchi laterale a chi rivolgersi

[@AlexanderSkinner-h3q]

Had a 1vj saw 180kmh on the clock more than once depending on wind ect with stock sprockets, don't know what true speed was. Loved that bike was stolen one night and they tried to take my Vmax as well.😢

[@dehCremus]

Gave machine!

[@bringthekickback]

Thanks 🤟🏻 welke bike zou jij terug willen zien op de Red Carpet?

[@Gwiedert]

@@bringthekickback Mijn T7🤣

[@bringthekickback]

@@Gwiedert Haha! Ook een prachtige bike, die zullen we ooit nog eens naast de oude gaan zetten. Stay tuned

[@mrbryanperson]

I have seen 160kmh on my 3aj but I definitely got the feeling it wasn't built for high speed 🤭

[@bringthekickback]

Haha, it’s possible not comfortable! The 3AJ even got better airflow then the 1VJ. Awesome bikes though.

[@steveferry5629]

excellent bike, though its predecessor 34L, is even better, only because i have one......😁
