    Thanks Jaxon (Tabasco)

    I'm fortunate to live a nice 20 mile back country drive to Tabasco's shop. Went over there on Sunday for a tire change and to have a check engine light looked at. It's been a while since I've had any work done with him and I'd forgotten how passionate he is about these bikes andhow well he...

    Troubleshooting Seat Latch Engagement

    I have a Sargent Seat that isn't latching when I install it on my bike. It used to work but was always finicky but now I can't seem to 'jiggle' it into place. I want to find out where the alignment is off from the latch and the lock. I'm thinking there must be something I can smear on the...

    Looking up MSRP on Yamaha Parts

    Does Yamaha publish a parts list with a Manufacturers Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) price? If so, where can I look up the part '23P-28356-01-00'? Reason I ask is that I prefer to give my local dealer the business but they are now owned by a big multi-store operation and I'm starting to suspect...

    Installed Excel Throttle Lock

    Tom Dowell has finally released his Gen II Excel Throttle Lock for the S10. Mine came a couple of days ago and I installed it last night. I'm very impressed with the build quality of the unit. Seems like it's made to last as long as the bike. Installation was quick and easy with the only...

    Help with Fredericksburg 2-up day ride

    My wife and I will be in Fredericksburg next weekend with a group of friends. They'll all be on street-only bikes and we'll be doing a lot of touring on paved back roads. However I'd like to plan a day ride for her and I that's off the beaten path. I'd like dirt roads but nothing too technical...

    A friend, myself, and our wives are heading up to Eureka Springs from Dallas early June on 2 bikes. We're going to try and take the most scenic on-road route going there so that the girls will be comfortable. However, one day while we're there the girls will be doing their own thing and my buddy...

    Best way to seal my Trax boxes

    After accidentally 'adjusting' my right side case :( it leaks a little now. It wasn't very much damage and was easily straightened. No damage to the corners just a little on the lower leading edge seam. I've seen ads for sealers like the guy who spray paints the screen door as a boat floor but...

    Need to upgrade Passenger Seat

    My wife will be riding on the S10 with me more now that I'm selling my FJR. She's used to the Sargent seat I put on the FJR which is quite comfortable. I'm pretty satisfied with the stock seat of the Tenere however if I have to upgrade it to get her better comfort I will. I know everyone raves...

    Will Yamaha Increase the S10 Power? If so, When?

    Just a point of discussion. Do you think Yamaha will eventually respond to the competition's escalating horsepower offerings? Even the ultra-conservative GS out-horsepowers the S10 and the new KTM's are down-right monsters! I ask with more than a little interest because the S10 has won the...

    S10 got a baby brother this week

    My friend and I have decided we'd like to get into riding the single tracks more and get some lighter bikes than my S10 and his F800GS. He ended up with an '09 BMW G450X and I bought an '07 WR450F. So now I'm a 3 Yamaha bike owner and one wave-runner. I guess I'm hooked on the brand! At...

    Day Loop out of Santa Fe, NM

    A friend and I will be doing a day loop out of Santa Fe next month. I'll be on the S10 and he'll be on a BMW F800GS. We'd like to stay on dirt/gravel roads as much as possible but not too technical as we both have the original 90/10 street/dirt tires on our bikes (this will change once they're...

    So how Rare ARE these bikes?!

    Called my dealer today to schedule the headlight harness recall. I ask for the service department and get a hold of one of their service advisers. I ask him how long they'll need my Tenere to get this recall done. He hesitates and asks me what's the recall for. I explain it to him and describe...

    Santa Fe Off Road Suggestions

    My wife, myself and another couple will be driving to Santa Fe in early June for a long weekend. My friend and I both have adventure bikes and were thinking we'd like to take them along if there were some interesting unpaved back roads to explore out there. I've ridden some of the area on paved...

    Pyramid Infill Question

    Ok, I posted this several days ago in the Vendor section and got no response so I'm posting it here now. I bought the carbon fiber look Pyramid infill panel. It's excellent quality and looks great but now I'm wondering if the white panel would have looked better with my white bike. I put the...

    What touch up paint for crank case scratch?

    Well, my bike's not a virgin anymore. While blazing a trail up an embankment I came across some hidden rocks that caught my crank case. They're a couple of 2" long parallel scratches. I want to touch them up to prevent rust and make it look better. What do you guys use that's durable and matches...
