    Looking for your wisdom on panniers

    I use the OEM cases on my 2016 ES. The two main reasons I chose them are 1) no obvious scaffolding visible when removed off the bike 2) their smaller dimensions force me to pack very light (which I appreciate performance-wise on road or light off road). My OEM cases and my bike are black. The...

    Chain Breaker and Riveter.

    Link below for D.I.D's chain tool. Hands down the BEST chain tool I've used! I prefer it over my Motion Pro also. The KM500R by D.I.D is robust, simple and smooth in operation, and practically idiot proof (which is an added benefit for me!). As with any chain tool, if you can practice on an old...

    Honda 750 Transalp

    I bet you'll really enjoy it! I'm very fortunate in that the owner of the Transalp I rode is my brother. He was trusting and generous and I took full advantage :p Seriously though, it was a much better test ride experience than being "babysat" by dealer demo guides (which I know is rare). Upon...

    Welcome from San Antonio, TX. This community is awesome and I'm sure you'll learn lots! The Super Tenere will be a super solid mile munching companion to the F800 S (which a cool bike also).

    Honda 750 Transalp

    I rode one! :D Lol! A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to take new Transalp for a ride. All pavement, no off highway terrain. The pave roads were very tight, twisty, dusty, bumpy, cattle guarded, cow patty peppered and FUN Texas hill country backroads. If I may, here are my notes in no...

    *FOUND* Rear Carrier for 2019 S10?

    AusTexS10, many apologies for my late reply. My account stays logged in, but I was away from the forum for a bit. I have that a part on (back) order but had also pm'd makntraxs for his zero-mileage part. We've corresponded and I plan to get his part and cancel the order for the new one. Many...

    *FOUND* Rear Carrier for 2019 S10?

    makntraxs (Greg) apologies for inserting myself into this seemingly closed thread but I noticed that you might have an OEM part that I'm unexpectedly in need of. Very cool of you to be ready help forum members too :cool: Do you still have that Box Stay off your 2016? I'm looking for the one with...

    PIAA LED LP530 wiring help needed

    nycwalt, to my best knowledge, a relay will be needed. I checked out the Eastern Beaver 4CS (which has a relay) and that looks like exactly what you need to establish normal powered operation for your PIAA lights. It's like their version of the PIAA MLR-4E relay kit. To be sure though, I'd email...

    PIAA LED LP530 wiring help needed

    Bensonic, my apologies for the late reply! Not a dumb question by any means. It's kind of busy on that wiring diagram o_O But yes; that is the exact reason I utilized that 3 pin connector (line item #3). Thanks for your question and your appreciation of the post. Have a great day! :)

    Is your OEM topcase "loose" when locked ??

    Videolester, would you mind posting pictures? I just noticed my OEM top case moving around a bit more. A riding buddy pointed it out while riding this weekend. I came home this evening and found some cracks on the OEM rack (pics below). I immediately began the thread search. Hopefully the case...

    Change Low Mileage Anakee 3 or Not

    Thanks everyone for the input so far! Normally this is a no brainer for me and I swap the rubber but 2,399 mi. is really low. I'm feeling inclined to run them for this 2,700+ mi. trip. Especially since I overpaid for them (dealership install during a trip). Lol! I don't love the Anakee 3 by any...

    Change Low Mileage Anakee 3 or Not

    Hello all :-) My S10 is fitted with a set of Michelin Anakee 3 with 2,399 miles on them. The Anakee 3 were definitely not my first choice (replaced while on a tour) and I'm not familiar with their lifespan (I normally run Bridgestone). I've got a tour coming up and round trip it'll be approx...

    Tentative super tenere

    Dick, welcome to a most awesome forum :-) Fwiw, I was sort of in your situation. Way overpriced Super Teneres with average miles was my dilemma. My solution was using a motorcycle shipping company. I eventually found my 2016 ES with 2,097 miles on the odometer for $9,500 OTD in Utah. I searched...

    What you did to your Tenere today??!!

    Muybig, I took the left and right "fins" of the positive wire connector and straightened them upwards to look more like wings. I used vise grip pliers and regular pliers to carefully bend the fins upward. I hope the marking on the attached photo helps. If not, just let me know. Initially I...

    What you did to your Tenere today??!!

    I channelled my inner MacGruber and fixed (?) a broken rear turn signal stalk with a snapper hose clamp. Those things ain't cheap man! I placed a thin cut strip of electrical tape around the damage hole first, then installed the snapper clamp. I used finger pressure to snap the clamp as much as...
