Loving the looks of that new bike 👍

[@SwankyCatProductions]

Thanks!

[@MotoMadness]

Nice looking bike!

[@scudrunneradv3269]

Looks good. I may still be looking at the Tenere. Loving my F 800 GS but still intrigued by the T7. Heal that foot up good this winter so we can see some great trail riding next spring.

[@SwankyCatProductions]

It's a heck of a machine that's for sure, kinda like a KLR on steroids ha ha. Will do, I'm really looking forward to seeing what it can do once I'm back to 100%!

[@stacks1967]

If it ain't BIG it ain't BAD ! Looks great.

[@SwankyCatProductions]

Haha thanks!!!

[@brianpalmer5518]

The larger fender will make sense when you ride through all the deep mud you and Jerry seem to find. Looks like you're moving pretty good too. I was eyeing the sled in the video. Won't be long before you shift to it for your weekly post. Snowed here in upstate NY yesterday. It's 27 outside right now but I plan to get a rides on the GSA and the KLR in today.

[@SwankyCatProductions]

Agreed, I think it'll definitely come in handy on our adventures! I'm a lot faster on the bike then I am off... But I'm getting there lol. Yep not to much longer!!!

[@faluzi66]

Looks way better!

[@SwankyCatProductions]

Agreed!

[@OneManTrail]

The fender looks awesome. It looks like a big KLR. I have the same one.

[@SwankyCatProductions]

Nice! Thanks, yeah I've really grown to love it.

[@ArcticJeff]

Could you take the LED bracket off and 'profile' the bracket a bit with a grinder, so the fender fits without washers? Also, I would not be concerned at all about cooling issues, lots of rad exposed. -5*C today (Oct 31) here in South Eastern Ontario and had snow once already. My sleds are in pre-season 'tune-up' status now. I think the XT200 might be close to finished for the season. Might get one or two more days riding if lucky.

[@SwankyCatProductions]

I thought about it but I'm a bit to lazy and have already forgotten about the washers to be honest haha. That's my thought too, plenty of radiator on both sides to catch the wind, should be just fine. I've got some parts in already to fix my hot belt issue on the sled! Going over to Jason's tomorrow to work on the crossfire with him too actually!

[@xj4me1]

Looking good, lets preseason some sleds! my mind is on snow!!!

[@SwankyCatProductions]

Just filmed a rebuild video on my buddies crossfire 800 last night actually!

[@patw9175]

I'm not sure which look I like better. I like the OEM fender down low and you really get that REALLY quintessential dakar look but it also looks more dirt worthy with the big up high fender too

[@SwankyCatProductions]

Sometimes I wonder if I should have left mine alone as I do also enjoy the look of the low fender. At the end of the day I like that mine is some what different looking though.

[@marshallonnink2221]

Stock fender guy chiming in - the slow speeds and low air flow is my guess for the temps. I get those temps even on cool days when I'm just putting around looking at the scenery. Clean 'er out and you should be fine. That sumo fender also had some vents cut in it and I don't think that'd be a bad idea for the new fender.

[@SwankyCatProductions]

Thanks, that makes me feel a bit better. I thought about cutting slots in the new one but I'm hoping I can get away with out it to block all the dirt and water.

[@patrickmurphy275]

My ST runs hot all the time fan runs alot outside Chicago It's A Yamaha Relax!

[@TheOriginalArcticEd]

Wire a toggle switch inline in the hot wire to the fan, Ben, and you can turn the fan on when you're riding at slow speeds off road or in town to stop it from getting too warm ion the first place....Just make sure that you're drawing power from a "keyed" source. Jus' sayin'.

[@SwankyCatProductions]

That is an interesting idea,. Would be nice to switch it on for the slow trails to keep things cool...

[@TheOriginalArcticEd]

@@SwankyCatProductions I did it on my Vee, works great even on a 90 degree day.

[@steveh1510]

A dirty KLR650 is one thing, but a dirty Tenere 700 just doesn't seem right! At least keep it clean until 2021. Since it is a 2021. I got one with about 3,500 miles on it now. Awesome freaking bike! Another issue you're going to notice with that high Fender is at high speeds it can cause turbulence and potential head shake. Not necessarily just with that bike but it's been noted by many riders of many models at higher speeds. That lower Fender is much more aerodynamic as you probably know.

[@SwankyCatProductions]

Ha ha I'll probably wash it up before the winter but I don't think it'll see much soap and water.... I'll be to busy getting it dirty haha. I'll watch for that, haven't noticed anything yet but I'm not sure I did any high speeds in a straight line since I installed it, just curvy back roads so far.

[@steveh1510]

@@SwankyCatProductions enjoy the bike and be careful with that foot!

[@peterv1806]

So Ben ... at this point, what do you like best: your former KLR or your new Tenere? I'm looking forward to the Kawasaki 23 Nov Announcement of their new bikes. A new "KLR" might be coming.

[@SwankyCatProductions]

I still feel sort of uneasy on the Tenere, just not enough saddle time yet. But I think once I have a bit more time on it and feel more at home on it, like I did with the KLR, it'll be an awesome experience. Its already soooo much more fun on the road, and while it'll take some practice off road I'm already really impressed with it. I'm definitely excited to see what they are going to come out with too!

[@IslandADV]

The Tenere is slowly morphing into its final form. The "Klenere700", lol. We got snow last night and the temperature dove. Black ice on roads now so I'm going through ride withdrawal.

[@markcollins5026]

Man, I live in Arizona, it's still 90 degrees in the afternoon, time for us to ride !

[@IslandADV]

@@markcollins5026 my jealousy is real, lol.

[@xtina818]

With my stock low fender it still ran hot in the slow stuff. Fan was always running. I don't think the new fender will impact it in any way.

[@SwankyCatProductions]

Thanks Xt!!! I'm really glad to hear that!

[@bryanreeme8584]

Wondered how you like your Motoz's?.. about to put my rallz's on, looking forward to em

[@SwankyCatProductions]

So far they aren't quite as grippy as my K270s but are still very good off road. The only thing more impressive than the off road capabilities is how they feel on road. As meaty as they are, they are SOLID on the pavement. I feel like I'm back on a sport bike on road!

[@KLRmurdercycle]

I've had a pointy fender like that one on the klr...jokes on me, it was horrible. Head lights were constantly covered in junk. Went with a yz fender. Forget which year but it was as good as the stock one but more rigid. Oh and because of yz forks the klr fender will not fit.😋 Looks more old school👌

[@SwankyCatProductions]

Haha yeah I was pretty unimpressed with the coverage it provides but I was also just not feeling the look. Big and beautiful is the way to go lol.

[@chiptaxfree]

I know you haven't gotten your crash bars on yet. But which bike is more capable off-road? The KLR or the Yamaha t7? I would love to see you do a video in depth about the subject.

[@SwankyCatProductions]

I'll definitely do that! Even without the bars I can say I think it'll be just as effective off road if not more so. With that said, it'll definitely still take some getting used too but I'll have fun doing it!

[@chiptaxfree]

@@SwankyCatProductions Thanks

[@steveh1510]

The tenere is hands-down much better off road. I've got a lot of miles on KLR and I currently on a tenere.

[@JohannesDalen]

Have you experienced any elevated engine temps since installing it?

[@SwankyCatProductions]

I actually never road it with the stock low fender. Between this and the smaller fender was very little difference if any. I'm told they just run hot.

[@paulcondie2520]

That fender looks way better! What's your thoughts on the new kawasaki reveal? If it's right I might get one, if it's right that is. I love my klr just wished it had a bit more power and a sixth gear. Main reason I still have mine is the reliability. Hard to top

[@SwankyCatProductions]

Thanks Paul! I'm not sure, from what I've seen it looks a lot like the old one, maybe to much for my taste. If it's closer to the Tenere, I might try one in a few years too!

[@paulcondie2520]

@@SwankyCatProductions I thought you might get one for the channel. Can't wait to see what kawasaki has in store for us

[@andymehrer457]

Ive had a question about how the low fenders? does your tire sucks up a rock. does the rock or tree suck up with the traction an get caught into those low fairing fenders. i got to see an 700 tenere for the first time and it does seem like a dirt worthy vehicle but it seemed like that vehicle was more fire road amicable rather than a dirt worthy. i know you have made it more dirt worthy but i just stress if someone with a 1200 gs could compare? hell i saw a 1200gs today and i wonder with out crash bars how it could that take offroading capability. now a days i see so many adventure bikes and i wonder if that is truly an adventure bike. i don't disclude the tenere, but does it have the take it off road capabilities?

[@andymehrer457]

i wonder from people from their experience. i have got from my experience that even my klr that i shouldnt be on the trail they are on but i have given those people gas to get out of my own.

[@SwankyCatProductions]

I think the low fender is just to fit in with the "adventure bikes". My Tenere doesn't feel quite as home off road as my KLR did, but I think it'll just take some getting used too. It certainly feels just as capable of not a good amount more then my dad's XC800 Tiger and people do some crazy things with that bike. It'll take me a while but I anticipate being just as fast, if not faster off road with the Tenere after some practice. However, I'm already waaaaay faster on road with the Tenere. This bike is soooo much fun!

[@texasdirtbikerider3335]

Temp is normal, not from the fender at all you can program it to have the fan come on sooner if you want.

[@SwankyCatProductions]

Glad to hear that. I actually did have 2WDW flash my ECU and the set the fan kick on set point a bit lower for me.

[@joshleal9811]

You should use your original front fender. At least try see how it works.. just a opinion..

[@SwankyCatProductions]

In the original position?

[@joshleal9811]

Yes.

[@Droptineful]

Factory engineers spend a lot of time testing and making sure the bike in stock form will work best. Just sayin’......

[@SwankyCatProductions]

True, but the marketing department tells the engineers and designers what they think the customers want. And if they think the customers want a low fender... doesn't mean it had to be that way. Granted the radiator was probably sized to have all free air to it... Unless the engineers knew some costumers would actually want high fenders and sized it accordingly...
