    Oil failed to fully drain.

    I drain on side stand and fill on center stand. Also I measure and have always been right in the middle of the sight glass. Luck I guess. To the original poster, are you going to change the oil again since your new is mixed with old oil from the sump? If you do I assume you will keep the new...

    SW Motech crash bars installation.

    I guess what I’m trying to get across is - these accessories have probably been developed without the benefit of 3D cad files from Yamaha. Ie. they’ve done the best that they can to deliver some accessories that will bolt up, most of the time. Paul Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    SW Motech crash bars installation.

    Those two bolts at the front engine mount are difficult to install even if everything is lined up because you are reaching in from the side, blind. So you have to get them started in the threads by feel. Even a bit misalignment of the accessory brackets makes that reinstall 10x worse. Sent...

    SW Motech crash bars installation.

    I bought my SW crash bars used from a forum member who gave me the heads-up about the installation difficulties. He recommended taking out both front motor mount bolts at same time when installing. I was nervous about doing this, so I tried one side at a time and had a difficult time...

    What the heck is up with all the complaints on the factory fueling/mapping? Why is a re-flash needed?

    My previous bike was a 2004 GSXR1000, now I have a 2017 ES. It’s throttle is not twitchy in either mode by comparison. Sometimes I ride in T mode, sometimes in S. Depends on what kind of riding I want to do. My bike was prone to stalling when it was newer, but now at 6,000 km it doesn’t do it...

    Helmet Opinions.

    Shoei GT Air II. I attended a demo ride at a local bike dealer. While waiting I tried on some helmets. When asked what I was looking for I answered “not another HJC, has to have an interior sun visor.” HJC was a good fit, but noisy. I thought it was just the dreaded Super Tenere wind noise I...

    Feedback wanted on the T-Rex Racing skid plate

    2017 ES owner here. I ordered one of T-Rex Racings skid plate and installed it this weekend. My bike has a set of SW Motech upper crash bars and the T-Rex skid plate uses the same mounting points as the crash bars, in addition to some others. The installation went smoothly, no need to bend any...

    What you did to your Tenere today??!!

    Installed a T-Rex Racing skid plate. Fits great even over top of my SW Motech upper crash bars. Highly recommend either company’s product. No issues with installation what so ever! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Motor Chatter..

    I think so. It hasn’t become better or worse, I just got use to it I think. I recently upgraded my helmet from a 10+ year old HJC to a Shoei GT Air 2. I can now hear more engine sounds at speed than I could previously. Nothing concerning, but she does let you know things are happening in the...

    Motor Chatter..

    When the bike is warmed up, running, in neutral, does the noise go away when you pull in the clutch? My 2017 has around 6,000 km on it now and it’s been this way since new. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Rear Ended my biggest fear.

    I just took my employer mandated Defensive Driving course today. There was a lot of statistical info presented. One that stuck in my head was that texting while driving is 10x more likely to result in an accident than talking on phone, smoking or eating while driving or even putting on makeup or...
