    Frustrated that used bike I bought is not starting now!

    My brain: 2s Wait what? WTF am I looking at? 2s Ohhhh a battery attached to a side car! 2s Wait what? But why on earth someone would put it on the "wrong side" of the bike? 2s Ohhh dude in Australia... 2s Ohhh he's making a Crock Dundy joke... How cute is that. :p o_O

    Frustrated that used bike I bought is not starting now!

    I could swear my bike was starting with significantly more vigor after I upgraded to a 14S. Funny how mind works.

    Please Don't Shoot Me For These 2 Questions! [Flashing ECU]

    Have you test drive a FJR? Just sold mine to get the S10. :) Yes the S10 is not quite the FJR Rocket Ship. Especially at high speed. But the S10 is much more comfortable and soooooooooooooo more versatile. I was curious about the S10 power delivery so I WOTed it across all gears. That thing can...

    What you did to your Tenere today??!!

    Nice! Mine went in the fork "well". At rest, this area catches a little engine heat as I can feel it when I put my hand over the well.

    What you did to your Tenere today??!!

    I haven't rode it enough to notice any significant change. Not sure if 6% richer translate to 6% increase if fuel consumption. I don't know how you could subtract 20c from the sensor by relocating it. I rode the bike one last time this season while bringing it to my winter storage location. The...

    What you did to your Tenere today??!!

    Where did you installed the temperature probe? After reading what I can find about it ranging from (It's a Miracle! It's snake oil. It will melt your bike) and to be honest a much higher ratio of happy people who actually tried it than anything else. I installed one of those yesterday. The...

    What you did to your Tenere today??!!

    Thanks, mine went in this morning. So far so good, it is toying with the perceived air temperature advertising it significantly lower than actual. It seams to have cured the stumble at take offs in T mode. I didn't notice much difference in S mode. I also got a reply from Boosterplug that the...

    Dirt Surfing Super Tenere in Hawaii

    Thanks for sharing that vid. Dude got great skills. That ground was hard packed. I was hoping to see some soft sand surfing as well. I noticed he got the fat ass ISM ADV II pegs on his ride. Those are huge... I bought the ones without the width extension and didn't like them. I was afraid to...

    What you did to your Tenere today??!!

    Got a Boosterplug to see if it will cure the start from stop hesitation. I haven't plug it yet. The box is generic (no part number on it) and no part number on the plug either. Those are supposed to be bike specific, even year specific. So how am I supposed to know I got the right one before...

    Discontinuation of the S10?

    :pYour FIFTH!?! So you know it's reliable by reputation, not by experience. (No offense, just teasing. Although I often change bikes. I chose bikes known to be reliable) I just got the S10 and I'm planning to keep it for a while. Oh look, Honda just released the Transalp

    Discontinuation of the S10?

    As much as I appreciate the CP3, this route will most likely end up with a chain. My S10 replaced a well loved FJR for added versatility. The driveshaft was a key factor in my choice. Low mileage S10's got tremendous value for the money. A chained T9 will not get to my wallet. Yamaha nailed...

    FYI Altrider is no longer making crash bars and skid plate for the S10.

    "Hello, There are raving reviews about your skidplate for the Super Tenere. Unfortunately I can't find them on your Online Store. Do you still make them?" Response:

    What do we now think of the bike

    Well done guys. Let me rephrase, I would like to see pictures of Lund's setup including but not limited to: "ACD skid with Outback crash bars, OE differential guard, Altrider fork protection and Barkbuster handle bar protection.". In other words actual photos of his S10 with all those goodies...
