    The Darkside.......

    Re: Car Tires - What people think are the negatives or want to debate I know this is old as hell but I finally got around to running a K60 on my S10. I got maybe 8K miles if memory serves while commuting, local playing on and off tarmac and one smallish trip {maybe 2K miles} so the CT which I...

    Shorai Li-Iron battery for STen

    I think there is only one SSTX20CH-FP. Not sure about the reference to the quad terminal, prolly just advertising mumbo jumbo.

    Shorai Li-Iron battery for STen

    Just tried out the Scorpion Stinger in 19 degree weather . I cranked a bit slower but not really any slower than the Yuasa has done several times during the time I've owned it. Did not start the first attempt {3-5 seconds or so} which I did with no warm up what-so-ever to try to get a apples to...

    Shorai Li-Iron battery for STen

    I see you are from Canada, what's the coldest the EarthX has started your bike? What temp does it really start to grunt it out and slow down to the point where you start to get worried or have to crank it a time or two to get some heat into it?

    Shorai Li-Iron battery for STen

    BTW, the Scorpion Stinger SSTX20CH-FP cranked the ST over fine this morning at 29 degrees. Cranked it over faster at 29 degrees than the OE Yuasa did when it was brand new in warm weather. Should be getting down into the middling to high teens by Sunday/Monday so I should know for sure if this...

    Shorai Li-Iron battery for STen

    I suppose that if you had a really, really strong stator with a lot of wattage, you could hurt the battery itself if you charged it from nearly dead but no, it shouldn't hurt the bike at all. Matter of fact, it should be better on older style bikes with the shunt type regulators since the...

    Shorai Li-Iron battery for STen

    What didn't you like about the Li Iron? Once I learned to fit the largest Li Iron I could in the spot I had, I didn't see any draw backs except the possibility of leaving the key or an accessory on and ruining the battery due to that. But in my experiences, the high performance AGMs do the exact...

    Shorai Li-Iron battery for STen

    Didn't take any. Whould be a boring looksee though because it fits as original. 'Sposed to be getting coldish in the next day or three, should be able to check cranking down to the high 20s or so.

    Shorai Li-Iron battery for STen

    An update on the update- I was able to change my order from the SSTZ14S-FP which is the battery Scorpion has listed as the direct replacement for the Super Tenere for the SSTX20CH-FP. The 14S is actually considerably smaller in dimensions than the OE AGM is rated by the distributer as having...

    Shorai Li-Iron battery for STen

    I've been using Li-Iron since they came out as individual cells shrink wrapped together. At first most of the companies that offered them sized them on the small side and so when the cold temps hit, they really crapped out. I was one of those that bought an undersized example. I know that all...

    Shorai Li-Iron battery for STen

    Dang, jumped too fast as I found this right after I ordered- https://www.batterystuff.com/batteries/lithium-iron-batteries/sstx20ch-fp.html It's a smidge wider {like less than 2mm wider} which is my only concern but I think I can work with that by modifying or leaving the absorbent pad out...

    Shorai Li-Iron battery for STen

    Yep,,, saw the 18 when I was researching and thought hard about it. Also saw an Antigravity that rated at something like 480cca and it was 250$ but it was about 20mm taller which may or may not fit {was gonna get some modeling clay to verify but it's a moot point now}. I did find this and I...

    Shorai Li-Iron battery for STen

    Well, that 36C is a damned near perfect fit {only 5mm larger in height} but holy crap,,,,,,,, 350$!!!!!! ??? ??? Nope,,,,, I don't mind the 200$ for the Shorai especially since that's basically what Ma Yamaha wanted for a OE replacement but I'll stick to AGM rather than fork over another 250$...

    Shorai Li-Iron battery for STen

    Heads up on the Shorai recommended battery for the Super Tenere. The battery Shorai has listed as fitting the 2014 Yamaha Super Tenere is not a good fit at all. The terminal's polarity is reversed as compared to OEM. Even if you flip the battery it's not a good fit as one would have to mod the...

    Car tire thread for experience -not debate

    Re: Re: Car Tires - What people think are the negatives or want to debate Few and far between for sure. I have heard that a 175/55/17 will fit and the only tire I've heard of in that size is an " Achilles Atr-k Economist 88v" but I've heard it doesn't return good wear which is one of the...

    Rox Risers for a 2nd Gen Super Tenere

    I bought these, installed them and didn't like them. They were on the bike for a couple of rides and a few days. How about 75$? Would rather not have to ship. Live in North Georgia Cumming/Dahlonega/Gainesville area. Look like this-

    Handlebar thread

    Won't fit my 14. If I coulda found a 1 inch up and back,, I would bought it. I hit up my favorite loop today. Hate the Rox Risers especially when playing. Only time I like them is when I'm standing so I'm removing them. Anyone want a set of nearly new Rox Risers for a Gen 2???

    Yamaha Super Ténéré 1200 Skid plates list and specs

    The ACD skid plate on my 14 Tenere is dragging during cornering. It touches down before the pegs and I don't like the reduced cornering clearance. I heard that if you run the Arrow headers and get rid of the cat, you then have room to move the skid plate up. So yea, I know I don't have to run...
