    Sold: 2017 ES Tenere - 8010 miles - $9,200

    Yea i should keep all my bikes if i was a little more sane .At 61 YO i have owned over 60 motorcycles and i suspect it is a genetic defect. I have friends with the DCT and if i knew better would have gone that route. For touring it is fantastic. The new ones you can adjust each individual gear...

    Rethinking preconceived notions...BMW F 750 GS

    Holy Cow Man!!!! i was looking at the specs on that bike. WOW! 160HP and estimated top speed 162MPH. The electronics package is amazing for that price. Automatic electronic suspension adjustment, steering stabilizer, slipper clutch, cruise, 6.5 " taft screen, adjustable windscreen. 6 gallon...

    Rethinking preconceived notions...BMW F 750 GS

    Congrats. KTM bikes are performance oriented. I have owned and raced many. The bikes never held me back, only my skillset:). The KTM 1090R is what speaks to me. I am too close to retirement to aquire more debt. Perhaps in a couple years some reasonably priced ones will show up. I think you...

    S10 to Africa Twin

    2000 mile review....Just thought I would follow up. First off this Tenere website is superior to any Africa Twin website I have found. And there are MANY! The format, the content, the knowledge of members top notch. Probably why I keep coming back. I will start with the areas I believe the...

    CSC RX4 Interesting....

    Why support the Red Army if you don't have to. They screw us EVERY chance they get. Many other options out there.

    S10 to Africa Twin

    Yes I could not be happier with the deal. My only regret is not going with a 2019 ATAS model for $1200 more. They still had 9 more 17s left from a total of 25 they received. They were selling at $9299. New 2019 ATAS for 10,499. I think maybe Honda overproduced and had a warehouse full of new 3...

    Compulsive buyer wants input on Triumph 900 Rally Pro.......

    Well you have and had some nice bikes. I guess I would ask the question, what is it you think the Triumph will do better than the two bikes you have now. The 790 and the ATAS are both great bikes.. You are willing to trade 2 bikes for 1. If it is a lighter bike you want perhaps trade 1 of them...

    S10 to Africa Twin

    HAHA! I deserve that. those tool boxes look terrible. I lack organization obviously. Funny thing is my actual tool box is to the right of those two red mounds of debris. I needed this nudging and am now motivated to clean it up. :oops:

    S10 to Africa Twin

    Here is a couple pics of the new cream puff. Oh yeah I also need to put a high fender kit on the front. We get some mud here that locks up the front wheel. The Yamaha in the background is what I ride when I wanna hang it out! I race a couple OMA nationals, local harescramble series and some...

    S10 to Africa Twin

    Well I took the plunge about 4 weeks ago. I really wanted my next bike to be the T7. The dealers around me already have deposits on them. I suspected they were not going to deal on them as the demand appears high and the demand for my 2012 S10 with 50K miles is pretty low. I as a habit do not...

    Your thoughts on it costing $10,000 ?

    The T7 addresses everything the Kawasaki KLR 650 didn't. The last year of KLR (2018) MSRP was $6699. The KLR had junk suspension. Brakes were junk and they had no power. If you needed to run 80MPH on the interstate you had to gear up and they still drank oil like a fish. On the plus side it was...

    Keep It!!!! I am in Ankeny with a Tenere as well. I will ride with you. Motorcycle trips are the least expensive entertainment. Too many road trips left in that bike. You will miss it! Riding season is just starting.

    Canectomy anyone?

    I think most just install a Yoshimura, Arrow or other. I remember something in the archives about removing the cat from the mid pipe. The Gen1 is reported to be more restrictive than later exhaust. The pics looked very restrictive. Like a big roll of fine stainless mesh. Someone showed pics of...
