    Aftermarket rear shock

    How much for the shock and spring? When you say "lo mile," how many miles are you talking about? I'm in Kilgore... could ride down and pick it up.

    Buffeting and starting problems

    What you REALLY want to do is ride a Gen 1 S10 with bags, top case and camping gear from Casper, WY to Sheridan in the standard Wyoming crosswind. For extra fun, through in a high-plains thunderstorm.

    The End of the Super Ténéré..................

    Kawasaki dropped the Concours for a season and reintroduced it as a modern motorcycle. As innovative as Yamaha has been in recent years, I can't see the company going without a large-displacement ADV bike.

    Shinko 705 run down

    I average about 15,000 miles a year -- the last two on the Tenere. I burned through Anakee IIIs in nothing flat and replaced them 705s. I've got about 8,000 mostly pavement miles on this set. Time to replace the front, but I expect I'll get another 3,000 on the rear. It's an 80-20 tire -- I'm a...

    Excited:Dream bike within two weeks;Questions!

    I've got Givi E41s on my S10 -- 36,000 miles. Waterproof through the some pretty impressive rains in British Columbia and in Georgia. Durable: I failed to re-attach one securely and it came off at something over 70 mph... scratched up, but it didn't open and it still doesn't leak. You can get...

    Alaska..2015?

    Last summer, for my 63rd birthday, I rode to Alaska. By myself. Camped about half the nights (I swear motels are farther apart in B.C. and Yukon than in Alaska). 8500 miles through Alberta, BC, Yukon and too-brief Alaska bits, 17 days including lots of photo stops. I spent almost $3000 including...

    Radar detector mounting

    I use the RAM mount. Also have mine wrapped in plastic, with an opening in front of the lens. Unless it's raining pretty hard, I leave it in place.
