    *SOLD* Key locks for Yamaha bags

    I sold my S10 a while back and today discovered I still have the key locks that came with the bike. I hate throwing stuff in the trash so willing to ship them to someone as long as I get reimbursed for shipping either with a check or PayPal. Let me know. Eddie.

    Adios to a Wonderful S10 and Hello a Xmax

    Just want to say thank you to this forum for wonderful guidance, thoughts and friendship. A few days okay I traded in my 2017 tan or sand colored S10 for a 2020 Yamaha XMax. The S10 provided almost 50k outstanding miles but in the end the weight and high CG wore me down. Also, I never have been...

    Dunlop Mission Trailmax

    A small status update. I'm now at almost 13k miles on the tires and still have tread so best lasting tires so far. I'm convinced that I would buy these again.

    Third Year Anniversary

    Wisperquiet, yes, the Tracer 9GT is on my radar. I might have already bought one except the color of the matte black with rust orange was a no go... for me. And now that I have delayed, the new 2021 or 2022 model is rather impressive on the spec sheet. Of course, I still need to see one in...

    Third Year Anniversary

    Top Ten, I did such as you described and bike runs fine. However, the stalls were few and far in between. However, like you, I consider the stalling issue behind me.

    Third Year Anniversary

    Darn, I forgot to mention I had a the front brake switch recall completed. The recall came at the right time as the cruise control light would occasionally flash. A restart would resolve the problem but then it would return miles later. I have since ridden almost 300 miles with the replacement...

    Third Year Anniversary

    Well, time is flying by and my S10 is three years old and currently at 42,934 miles. Last year I posted this https://www.yamahasupertenere.com/index.php?threads/second-anniversary.27819/#post-396899 First item I want to mention: stalling. I finally became convinced battery voltage was dropping...

    Dunlop Mission Trailmax

    Note: My rain experience may be caused by the lack of rain on Texas roads so when we do get rain the roads are really slick with oils, antifreeze, etc...

    Dunlop Mission Trailmax

    Been a long time since I have posted an update. First, I only have approximately 6,700 miles on the tires. The tires were installed February of 2020 and due to Covid and personal medical issues I just haven’t ridden much in 2020. As before, I like these tires on dry dirt roads as they are really...

    Dunlop Mission Trailmax

    First was stock tires; okay but didn't last too long. Next was Michelin Anakee 3's; rear howled when new but otherwise really like the tires. Rear lasted approximately 15k but front was a complete shocker with needing replacement before 9k. Weird. Next I tried Pirelli Scorpion Trail 2; similar...

    Dunlop Mission Trailmax

    A short update. I'm approximately at 5,000 miles and tires show minimal wear...very minimal. I rode on some New Mexico and Colorado dirt roads (rain and shine) and very pleased. At this point I'm rather pleased. New Mexico and Colorado Ride

    Another Cold Hard Start...

    Update. I have ridden over a thousand miles since the battery change. Bike has been starting fine and no throttle needed hot or cold (haven't experience much cold). I'm now wondering if the previous battery was marginal for a long time. Regarding stalls, none but they happened so infrequent I...

    Another Cold Hard Start...

    The latest news. And one that I may have to eat some crow... The past few times that I’ve been out I noticed the bike was becoming hard to start even when warm. Also, I have a voltmeter/USB plug but the voltmeter is hard to read in direct sunlight. However, I ended up in a low light situation...

    Another Cold Hard Start...

    My S10 is a 2017. Replaced plugs approximately 10k miles ago. Stalls have happened throughout ownership of the bike, before and after spark plug change, but so infrequent that I've never been able to troubleshoot or at least feel confident enough that another mechanic could troubleshoot. Now...

    Another Cold Hard Start...

    Clarification on my stalls. The stalls are random; extremely random and lately have been occurring after sitting at a light for a minute or two. When I twist throttle to accelerate, engine stalls. Regarding hard starts, bike turns over fine and always starts but requires a twist of the...

    Another Cold Hard Start...

    RonH, huh? How does battery cause the stalls?

    Another Cold Hard Start...

    An update. I’m now at 36k miles and experienced another stall; this is the fifth or sixth stall since I’ve owned the bike. Also, the bike is now at the point where I twist the throttle ever so slightly for a quick start; warm very slight but cold significantly more. Still no check engine light...
