And here's my TR650 Earth!

Megatiker.. SW rack is OK but is still fixed on polimero, because OEM Rack is plastic, so you still hand bike on plastic, this is the problem. OEM rear rack is easy to break
you will see. I have not done dirt with top case in, and rear rack is vibing, was broken just holdind bike up, one hand on bars the other on OEm rear rack. Thats my experience so far.. I am looking for a solid rear rack (metal one)

have a look

The piece number 3 is of metal. So the trunk rests in part on polymer.

As you see the OEM rear rack exterior arms go on plastic yet, thats what i have to change. because it is butter. I broked mine just holding hand to put the bike up
from the floor. bike was felt down to the tarmac.
What i surprise most of Terra is the mileage.. WOW last full tank it makes me wonder.. 323km 11,5 liter. so the range is 14l 393km incredible!
Mine have 16000km yet.

Megatiker . I am looking the best metal rear rack system to change it. I see touratech and Sw motech, but they still use, as base the OEM platform, thats the problem.
NO one problem with metal racks in my XR 650L IN 100.000KM . All the problems with Terra OEM rack plastic.

See Hepco Becker rack. It replaces polimer with steel/alu/

FYI, nev. The bike is still called the terra in Italy. It is just when megatiker puts his posts through a translater that it changes the word to earth.

EDIT: Sorry, nev. After reading your post again, it seems you probably already understood this.

the model in Italy is called TR650 TERRA. Indicates the use of off-road motorcycles most votes. The model TR650 STRADA, is more devoted to driving on the road. The word "EARTH" came out by the translator of google. I hope I have explained it right this time

It will be interesting to see if the subframe will hold up to that weight.

What I did.

I saw it, but still concern about to fix my SHAD top box on it.. Thanks it is a serious option.
MOstky because of handling bike

Megatiker75 I do like it, and my advice to you is ...
Dear Sir, put it on a boat headed for San Diego,CA. I would like to take a closer look at it. I will send you funds from the Presidentes account, it will be more than enough to cover the shipping cost. Then you can keep the overage, and i will return the machine back to you.

If you host me and pay for my trip I'll willingly come
hahahah
