I like the idea and look forward to seeing some decent pictures, have not voted because there is no choice that fits.

So yesterday I left home at 3pm in the rain and 45 degrees, at 1am I arrived in Kansas City and checked into a motel, a nice long hot shower warmed me up. I had updated the Zumo XT about a month ago and after the update that little red indicator that always points north had disappeared, I had...

Wonder what would happen if Google started selling GPS

One thing I find really annoying with every GPS is the way so many roads that normally show up on the screen just fine disappear after You install a route to follow

So how did beeping the horn manage to fix the control issue ?

Those horse and buggy’s are around here as well and crazy dangerous

Could you show us a picture of your bad screen ? What year is your Tenere ?

My previous 2013 went through a lot of headlight bulbs with none of them ever making 10,000 miles. So far with a little over 20,000 miles on the 2018 I’m still using the original headlight bulbs.

It’s definitely not a useless post !

I have never changed that oil gasket-washer on a Tenere. However at about 160,000 miles that washer on my Goldwing developed a small crack so I replaced it.

So far thankfully I have never needed a raised fender and I did ride my 2013 Tenere all the way to Prudehoe Bay in the rain. But yes I have seen plenty of pictures showing front fenders so packed with mud that the front wheel stopped turning.

Bumot makes some very nice stuff

Wanted a yellow Tenere but unfortunately couldn’t get one , not something I’ve ever done before but if I had one I’d probably find someone to paint the front fender to match . I’ve always figured with a decent paint job Yamaha could have sold a lot more Tenere’s.
