Gentlemen, Once again, I highly appreciate this level of response and your suggestions. I am convinced that the experienced majority is leaning towards a similar path to riding, which I will follow. Looks like I will be an active member on here, from the KLR650 kind :) Thank you!

I highly appreciate all the advice I've received here! This is a great welcoming to a forum, shows the strong camaraderie amongst everyone here. Thank you.

Please do post, if you have a chance to snap the photos of that! I would really like to see that! It may come out like this? Also the orange / ktm color scheme could be nice. Some photos I digged up from this and other forums...

Thank you for the great advice! I also think that this transition (from MSF --> lighter bike --> ST) would probably be ideal in the long term and the least costly in terms of accidents.

Fred, Thanks for the write-up, this is going to be very helpful for me if I'll be purchasing the '14 model as well. Also, that seat looks like you can go a million miles on it!

Fred, Your ride looks great! Just like stock out of the factory. Would you mind sharing how long it took you to swap the parts, in labor time and how much approximately you were charged to paint the parts? Thanks!

This is great info, thank you! I am located in New York, NY (updated location on my profile). It is the worst place right now for doing anything 2-wheel related, probably at least until March pr April.

What year is your white one? The one I know of is only on the 2013 models. As far as 2015 models go, according to dealer and Yamaha websites these are the available colors: 2015 Super Tenere ES - Candy Red 2015 Super Tenere (Non ES) - Candy Red 2015 Super Tenere (Non ES) - Matte Silver Do...

Re: Color Questions Thanks for the input. Seems pretty straight forward, my assumption is that all the panel and gas tank mounts are the same on all the different year models.

Hello guys, I hope to answer a question about colors. I have been doing much research but can't quite figure out what colors are offered on which model. Here is what I understand about current model offerings. 2015 Super Tenere ES - Candy Red 2015 Super Tenere (Non ES) - Candy Red 2015 Super...

Hello guys, New Super Ten enthusiast here. I have been doing tons of research and comparison of adventure bikes and the Super Ten certainly stands out to me above all others. I am hooked and looking to buy one as soon as I get my first bonus at work. I have several questions and would highly...
