    What is it about your ST that makes you smile?

    Low maintenance, handles rough roads, handles open road too. Great all around machine. Lots of aftermarket accessories too, so you can outfit it to suit you.

    SW Motech rear rack and Shad adapter

    I installed the SW Motech steel rear rack and their steel adapter for the Shad top case. If you are looking for a rack to replace the plastic stock one to hold your top case this is a good one at a good price. I got it from twisted throttle.

    Yamaha customer service or lack thereof

    I did my 600 mile oil change at just under 600 miles. I got Yamaha oil and filter, plus gaskets for the oil plugs (actually washers) and did the change myself. I used Mobil synthetic in the rear drive instead of the Yamaha mineral oil, because the Mobil will reduce wear greatly. I kept all my...

    You guys are all idiots

    They need to tell these magazines that the Tenere can't read, it just does what it is asked to do and does it well. Only problem I have with mine is my inseam is 30 in. and sometimes I just feel too short, but once underway, all is well. I looked at the bigger picture before purchasing and...

    Wind Wings - Yamaha or Cee Bailey???

    I just looked at the new Cee Bailey wind wings on their website, and I like the fact that they make them in black, so they match my black Tenere. They seem to be larger than the Yamaha wings. Anyone here have any experiences to share on which ones work best. Are they easily removed? It gets...

    STOCK tail rack.

    I have a Shad SH46 and I drilled four small holes in the stock rack and mounted the plastic Shad mounting plate that came with the case. I did not have a failure of the stock rack, but there was too much up and down movement at the rear of the rack and I could tell over time it may fail as...

    2014 STEN ES

    I don't think my ABS light stays on until I start moving on my 2012. I do remember something in the owners manual about if the front wheel comes off the ground (a wheelie) it may shut off the ABS, or if you run it in gear on the center stand. There is a way to reset it in the owners manual, or...
