Bump

Due to health reasons I am forced to sell my new 2012 Yamaha Super Tenere. Purchase date = August 4, 2011 First service completed. 900 miles Givi Crash bars, Fram horn, BMW style power outlet. $14,500. Contact: lee@rocklinglass.com

What's wrong with the Super Tenere? • It's a overweight pig (once going the heaviness disappears...yeah right!) • Poorly engineered location for the radiator (left side up high creates plenty of heat for the rider and susceptible for major damage with a tip over or dirt nap) • Badly planned...

Welcome.... Good luck with your search. If you can't find one in southern California , I have a blue Super Tenere with 600 miles that is for sale .

I really enjoyed your video. Very well done.

It's amazing that we Americans are paying about $200.00 for the first service by dealers. Which really amounts to an oil change and checking bolts... usually performed by unskilled shop monkeys. Don't think my Super Tenere will ever see the incompetent dealer again (Roseville Yamaha).

After the purchase and royal screwing I got from Roseville Yamaha. I'll definately be doing the FIRST and ALL other routine mantenance on my ST. Any warranty issues ...goes to another Yamaha dealer.

To all my "handyperson" friends. I know some of this will sound familiar. 1. DRILL PRESS: A tall upright machine useful for suddenly snatching flat metal bar stock out of your hands so that it smacks you in the chest and flings your beer across the room, denting the freshly-painted project...

Wow...pretty long ride for a windshield. May get over to Cal Sci in the next weel or so.

Just a thought....maybe the California Super Tenere gets less MPG due to added smog devices (cannister, etc) I'm also getting 38 mpg (calculated by miles / actual gas used)

Here's what I actually paid.... Cash Price = $14,434.00 ($13,900 plus set-up fee and freight) Doc Fee = 55.00 Sales Tax = 1,050.46 License Fee = 177.00 CA Tire Fee = 3.50 Grand Total = $15,719.96 Looks like we get to pay more living in California !!

Might want to check COSTCO ::026::

Neat idea ::012::

Exactly what I was thinking of doing! Got any pictures of the install?
