I Got bored and decided to have a OCD moment and fit a seat strap, front fender rear extension to match the tenere theme, rebuilt the fuel cap with parts from my original cap to use original key(same as ignition), new indicator relay, mounted the zeeltronic using a p clip and frame bracket and used nutserts for a proper job, new chain guard.
I'm also fitting a underseat tool box like the French bikes have for an old school feel.
I'm mostly logging this for my own benefit as these mods probably seem boring now haha.
But I'm really considering installing the original numberplate holder/tail light, any thoughts?
Just want an old school feel. -

@calum thanks Callum. Just trying to get the right combination of modification and the classic look. Hence why I'm putting some xt500 mirrors on, going to re-do the tail end, maybe a new fender without stupid Dunlop stickers

I've decided, I'm toning down the bike and making it more original, funny because 8 years ago I threw the original front fender, inner mudguard/numberplate holder/tail light and original indicators in the bin because I wanted it to look more modern
Removed those ott ypvs stickers
I've ordered a brand new rear fender, numberplate holder, tail light and indicators.
My tool box came which I will mount with p-clips when I re-do the bikes rear end. I'm looking forward to see this looking retro -

Mate that's to be expected.
These command good money in original condition. If mine didn't get nicked and damaged, I would have left it completely original.
I think it's a good shout.

And the tool box is on, balances the rear end with the exhaust silencer nicely.
