Fancy an XT900Z Tenere?

xt900

just read this and had a little laugh.WHY ohWHY did Yamaha never make an XTz850 rep I`ll never know,it would have sold in droves across france what with Peterhansel at the head. I did the 750/850 convertion with the TRX engine and can safely say it went like stink!!(on the 750 gearing), if Yamaha did do this I would have to have second thoughts about my GSA. on a foot note I`ve never looked twice at the yam 1200 its a "bus":D
 


Im gutted that i never threw a 850 in this, But i bought my Gs instead :beerjug:

The TDm900 goes in,But is a PITA, chain needs upgrading so the frame needs sniping, The electrics arent to bad really,


It will be interesting if yam chuck this new triple into a tenere type frame. Worth a play ;)
 
Looks like this COULD be a runner...anyone notice this at Intermot this week ?

Its a n R1 crossplane engine with a cylinder chopped off.

But may be just more of a road bike ?
