I think it's this one... https://www.yamahasupertenere.com/index.php?threads/what-you-did-to-your-tenere-today.1851/post-359579 I have a question about the actual socket <> device cable. With the position of the OE socket (upgraded or original) is there a risk of water ingress when a cable is...

:oops: So there was an incident with strong wind blowing bike over (cover acted as a sail). Snapped wing mirror off as it landed on fence panel, but didn’t consider anymore damage. Will have to check that side over mor thoroughly. Thanks for the pointer!!!

I’ve noticed that I’m getting more wobble on the front when on less smooth roads. Initially I thought it was just the dash unit so figured the rubbers were tired or it needed adj. to tighten. However after a couple of Kate night journeys home from the office it’s affecting the headlamp unit...

Have had similar issue with 1x plug on check at the weekend. New plugs ordered to be swapped in this weekend. Considering new coils...are the Tourmax coils seen on eBay any good? £50 per coil cheaper than Yam. Only way I can get them cheaper is from someone line LoneStar Yamaha in US...

Emailed :)

This (its the Pyramid version, but the Powerbronze isn't much different): Not sure what you're referring to - perhaps rear susp. adjustment??

Cheers Rob, I was thinking of a Shocktube at some point as well...I was leaning toward Pyramid, but wanted input from the colletive...just in case :)

I'm finding that on the winter roads my boots are getting a lot of spray from the wet/damp roads. Thinking that a rear-hugger would combat this issue, and also help to keep the rest of the rear end a bit cleaner. Does anyone have good/bad stories of the options out there? Alternatively is...

UPDATE Bikes back from its 24k mile service. initial opinion is that the judder has all but gone. Per above mechanic noted some where on the springs, but nothing anymore significant. I've be paying specific attention now, and note that when cold there is the usual "clunk" as I engage 1st gear...

I can't remember directly but if the S10 uses plastic screen screws (like the TDM does) its for a reason...the design is that should you have a front impact RTI and go over the bars, the screen screws will sheer. Metal after market options will not have this "safety" feature, and could cause...

I ride in both modes. Tend to switch between depending on the part of my journey. As we move towards the colder months T mode will be more prominent. Going to email this thread to the mechanic for me to have a read too

Hi Eric Thanks for the advise. Quick answers to a couple of the questions (as I didn't specific before) 24k miles Centre Stand = YES Will ask about clutch plate condition when I speak to mechanic. A

Thanks both... I'll check with the mechanic about the blueing, and thanks for the dealer pointer. Noted. I was going to use them, but cautious now...

Mechanic has had the clutch basket out. Noted movement on 3x springs in the basket, and "witness" marks on these springs indicating impact at some level. He's spoken with some Yam dealers who have said this is early signs of terminal failure, but other that haven't said the same. His advise is...
