The super tenere isn't worth selling. For what it fetches on the market, it's not worth it to me to sell. So I tried buying two other bikes, a KTM 500 EXC and a Kawasaki Concours. almost 9 years later, guess which bike is still here and the others have moved on.... Within the past couple...

I have a recently refreshed (~600 miles ago) Super Tenere XT1200 shock from Cogent Dynamics. The shock is 1 inch shorter than stock for a 32 inch inseam 220-240lb rider carrying 30-40lbs of gear. I was able to fully flat foot the bike with the OEM seat. Great shock, medical issues forcing sale...

I recently bought a Yamaha RMAX (UTV) and I'm looking to buy a YES Warranty for it. Anyone know a friendly place to get one for a UTV? And of course being a Florida resident just makes that more complicated...

No. I only extended the brake lines with the helibar risers.

Sorry for the late reply M16 x 1.5mm thread It's posted a few pages back.

As long as those dirt and gravel roads are dry it's fine. As soon as they get anything more than slightly humid they're worthless. I've done the Metzler Tourance NEXT, Stock Battlewings, and the E07 Dakars, I'm ready to try a real big block knobbie tire for awhile. I primarily ride dirt and sand...

I agree. If you're expecting it to ride like a dirt bike where you can just shift your weight back and hammer the throttle to float over the rough stuff you might be surprised at how much weight is still hung high and forward by the engine and gas tank. If you're going for the gnarly stuff...

The Gen2 bikes '14 - current model years reliability is "boring" as most owners would put it. They have ergonomic issues for most riders under 6 ft I would say. Once you start adding more luggage the suspension needs at least a heavier rear spring. The engine is IMO bulletproof. I have had no...

"19° Super Tenere/Adventure/BMW LC " are the ones I ordered. They were recommended by Fasst. You can have them tapped by Fasst if needed. I do them myself and it takes about 20 minutes to do both sides with a tap, and cutting oil. Aftermarket bars do not come tapped. The stockers were tapped...

Fixed now.

After spending another 6 months recovering I finally got around to doing this. To answer anyone who's wondering: Tusk makes a bracket specifically for the fast flex bars to use hand guards that wouldn't otherwise reach. I love this setup. More so than the Protapers I ran for awhile. I bent my...

I can respect the effort, Bob. After testifying in Annapolis in support/opposition of other bills while I was a resident there, my eyes's were really opened at how much contempt the MD General Assembly has in for it's constituency. Zero respect or open an open mind to anyone willing to show up...

Bill was DOA having been sponsored by a delegate from Harford County. As a former prisoner resident of Harford and Cecil county MD there isn't much of a conversation in Annapolis thanks to long gerrymandered voting districts. If there was ever two states that needed lane filtering it was VA and...

I'm in the process of getting a flash done for my Concours and if you have or had one you probably have heard about Shoodaben. We had a good chat on the phone about the stock throttle control on the S10 and how there were limited choices out there for flashing (Anthony and ECU Unleashed). Steve...

Yes they will, but they didn't always so if you're hunting for reviews up until about 2016 the firmware on the Sena side didn't play nicely with the phone + zumo at the same time. I had the 665LM and sold it because I was so mad about that and then a month later after waiting for months asking...
