It feels good to back in Van.
Next day I take care of my 10,000km service at Mesut’s Yamaha shop.
A couple of bikers show up while I’m there. You wouldn’t get away with a plate like this back home.
The local bike cops make an appearance as well.
They are shopping for new bikes and the Tenere is on their short list. They try sitting on it two up.
Mesut and I later discuss different bikes with the police over tea. I can’t recommend the Tenere as a police bike for two up in good conscience. COG is just a tad bit too high.
I just take it easy in Van, enjoying the food and drink. I’m clearly not in Iran anymore
My new boots arrive quickly and I’m all set to head out again.
