Putting my beloved and trusty 2013 Super-T w/ABS up for sale. $7,500. Original owner. A modest 12,528 miles. Purchased new in 2014 from Danbury Powersports. Oil changed every 4K. New battery in 2021. Put on Heidenau K60 Scouts (which now have about 3K miles on them). Babied. Loved. Clean...

Howdy again Ténéré friends, Been using the holiday break to catch up on ride reports…and this one features my trusty 2013 Super-T, Calvin Coolidge, motocamping, a Revolutionary War general… and the Great State of Vermont. It’s here on my motoblog, and this ride report is called State of...

Howdy, Friends. Not a Super-T post per se, but very related content via our newer, younger, sprier sibling.... This past June, a friend and I did an AWESOME three-day adventure ride with Colorado Motorcycle Adventures on a pair of rented Ténéré T700s... What a bike. And oh, what a ride. On...

Hello fello Ténéristi, A little midwinter ride report to get you through January. Back in July, I took an eight-day, 2,400 mile moto-camping adventure from domestic, suburban southwestern Connecticut up to the wild and wooly Gaspé peninsula in Quebec. All on my trusty 2013 SuperT. Besides...

Well, with my bikes suckling on battery tenders for the winter, I finally found time to finish a ride report on a short but awesome trip I took this summer to Nova Scotia on my trusty 2013 Super Ténéré. There's dirt. Slab. High speed ferries. Liquor. And a terrifying encounter with Donair pizza...

Haven’t posted in a while, but just got back from a 3 day jaunt from southwestern CT to Nova Scotia, via Portland ME and the CAT ferry. 900 miles of mixed slab (coming and going) plus coastal twisties and inland dirt reaffirmed my Tenere love. First trip on new sneakers, too: Heidenau Scouts...

Took a last-warm-day ride down to the beach, and snapped this shot of the still-handsome front end. The Super-T still looks great to me—gapey mouth and all! From the side, too... A modest riding season this year (only managed one medium-sized trip from CT to VT), but my '13 still runs...

Ya know, your read all sorts of stuff on the internets. But every now and then it's worth juxtaposing your own personal and tactile experience in the physical world to arrive at your own judgement. I've read a lot about Gen 1/Gen 2 Tenere differences. It came up a bunch in the "what do you...

Rode home from the train commute tonight —not my Tenere today, but my Guzzi. In the 3 short miles before pulling into my garage, this occurred to me: No more bugs :) Way more deer :( Crispy, colorful autumn leaves (glorious). Wet autumn leaves (perilous). Still riding...awesome! Not sure...

Hello. We two idiots went on a 3-day on/off road adventure this summer up through Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Vermont. We took these two Candy Stripers... Over a couple hundred miles of this... With limited help from this: Along the way, we enjoyed stuff like this... And...

Just finished an 830 mile loop up through CT, MA and CT via the Trans Mass Trail and Puppy Dog Route. I rode my '13 Super Ten, and my riding buddy (in from CA) piloted my little Guzzi V7II Scrambler. It was AWE-SOME. Bikes ran flawlessly. Weather was spectacular. Roads were delicious. Enjoy...

Hello Friends. And thank you for all of your collective wisdom. It helped this weekend garage-warrior/wrench-pretender change the oil on his '13 Ténéré. But not without a little stupidity and minor melodrama. Like: why did only this much oil (quart and a half?) come out of the engine? Could...

Just welcomed a new horse (more like pony) to the stable. A Moto Guzzi V7II Stornello. It was love at first sight when I saw it online, and when I finally saw this one at the local Moto Guzzi dealer by me, it was all over in about 7 seconds. Plus, I guess I have a think for white and red bikes...

Wondering how many of you happen to have siblings in the garage, and what the "alt-ride" to your Ténéré is. I've shared this before here; I picked up an old BMW Airhead last summer, which I love. It's soooo different from the Ténéré, not just because it's vintage, but because it's a low...

First off, hats off to Helios for his thread. Reminded me to post this! I did a riding "Year in Rear View" on my motoblog, much of it S10-centric, and posted it here: http://wp.me/p3QZZ5-uY It was a pretty good riding year, save for breaking my ankle on a Utah BDR ride on a rented KLR. But...

In keeping up with tradition, I failed (once again) to make a proper year-end holiday card. But I did do a little holiday motoblog post that I thought you all might enjoy. It's called The Year In Rear View. You can check it out here...

I mean, really. Is anyone else taking advantage? 12th of December. 66 degrees. 132 New England miles. 3 1/2 hours in the saddle. 1 covered bridge. 3 course lunch. 2 dudes fly fishing. 1 incredibly happy guy.

Well, I done did it. Went old school. My Zuper-T now has a stablemate, from the brand I sort of swore off when I got the S10 a year and half ago. Wait for it... A '74 airhead. R75/6. Doesn't diminish my love for the Ténéré one lick. But adds an entirely different dimension to the garage...

While I'm recouperating from my ankle fracture (and doing little more than gazing lovingly at my Tenere in the garage) I've had plenty of time to work on my blog and capture Stage 2 of our "sort-of-Utah-BDR-ride" from the other week. This installment concludes with my adobe clay tankslapper and...

Just got back from a 4 day modfied Utah BDR ride—not on my '13 Ténéré, but on a rented '13 KLR. It was positively...intergalactic. I've collected my thoughts on Stage 1 of our ride—from SLC to Torrey—in a ride report on my motoblog here: http://wp.me/p3QZZ5-md. Hope you get a chance to...
