Well had my first 'adventure' today ..... My usual 80 miles from Barracks to home turned into a bizarre trek across the English countryside thanks to the TomTom Rider 400's 'windy road' option. :o I thought i knew most routes but today i was going down some roads / tracks i had never seen...

Anyone else seen the Motorcycle News 15 page Adventure Special ? What a load of crap. Out of 15 pages - 'lacks accereration' and 'was heavy' and its 'cumbersome' and 'no-one would choose it for keeps' ...Oh ,one positive thing - 'its comfy and i could do lots of miles on it' Thats it for 15...

Well got the new Tom Tom Rider 400 the other day. The Sat Nav side of things seems ok. But ............................................................ and its a BIG but ........................................................ The supplied RAM mount really is not good for the S10. As you can see...

So am looking to get a dry bag to strap to the back of my bike - anyone uas eone if so what etc ? I am not into panniers - can't understand why so many bikes have them fitted to a bike that only goes out at the weekend on a local ride for a few hours and rides around with them empty (fully get...

So picked up my 2015 XT1200ZE on 6th March. Thoughts so far before its first service ...... ....bearing in mind i have spent my life of Sports Bikes and some heaviliy modified ones at that i was ready to embrace the change of getting a Tenere (thanks Knees and old age!) So first of all i keep...

Hi all, in preperation to picking my new XT1200ZE up on the 06th March i am looking at end cans / Mufflers (end can here in the UK !) The Akra here is shockingly highly priced yet the Yoshi is reasonable. Can you let me know what you got and how you are getting on with it ? Not to fussed on...

Hey all ! Who has an aftermarket end can on their S10 ? i pick a XT1200ZE up on the 6th march and am looking at end cans. The Akra seems far to expensive for what it is and the Yoshi sems the cheaper option. What cans havr you got and how do you rate them and where did you get them from and how...

So the XT1200ZE has a few very minor tweeks for the engine and exhaust over the 2014 model- so does this mean all end cans that fitted the 2010 - 2014 models arn't right for the 2015 ? Hardly any manufacturer lists the xt1200ze 2015 i can't see if its a different end can. I ask as i am looking...

So who has the Electronicaly Adjusted Suspension ?? I ask as i have been reading the Yamaha manual waiting for my XT1200ZE to arrive and am a bit confused - on every bike i have owned i can adjust the preload, rebound and compression front and rear independantly from each other. But reading the...
