    FREE E21's and 35L - GONE

    I have a pair of very old, dirty, scuffed, abused, Givi E21's. The key broke so I removed the tumblers and now they can be opened with any key. I also have a pair of 35 L no-name JC Whitney cases which fit Givi racks. They also don't have locks. I don't need them, don't have Givi racks...

    Givi PL2119 luggage racks SOLD

    The standard Givi monokey racks (and mounting hardware) from my 2014 non-ES. These are NOT the quick-release racks - they bolt on and stay on. There's a left and right side hoop which mount thru the grab handle bolt holes and to the passenger peg bracket, and a connecting rod which connects...

    Moose Expedition aluminum panniers "review"

    Review is in quotes because I'm not sure this qualifies as a review - more of an info dump. Maybe someone will find this useful. IF anyone is looking for Al panniers on the cheap, Moose Expedition are on sale/ closeout seemingly everywhere. I got a pair for $460 delivered. There's very little...

    SOLD ... Russel Day-long Saddle

    It's big, it's ugly, it's an RDL with less than 1000 miles on it! I'm the original purchaser. This seat has the internal suspension option for heavier riders. This is the rider seat only - no passenger seat. It sits taller than stock: in the "low" position, it feels about the same height as...

    SOLD - Firstgear summer gloves

    I bought these online in 2017. They fit too tight for my taste, so I only wore them once or twice commuting to work. I meant to return them, but instead they've been sitting in my garage since. The tag says 2XL, and "made in China." They are light-weight, uninsulated, not waterproof...

    SOLD.... 2 inch Rox Risers - $75

    Selling my 2 inch Rox Risers which I used on my 2014 for a year or two before switching to ADV high bars. $75 Paypal shipped to CONUS. I wish I could answer questions about these fitting on pre-14's, or if longer lines are needed. I just don't remember... but I did that research myself right...

    forum font random auto re-sizing

    If I attempt to edit while composing a post, the text following the insertion point of my edit goes to micro-font size. What the heck is going on? Am I doing something wrong, or is this by design? If by design, to what end?

    Clutch slip at high RPM

    Problem: when rolling on aggressively above above around 4k RPM (say, to pass), the engine gains RPM rapidly, but there's no extra "go". The gear indicator will get confused and go blank or report a gear change. AFAICT, it's fine from idle to about 4k RPM even with crazy throttle hand, and...

    Cam chain gap on sprocket

    [As noted in my post when this thread became it's own, this thread has been split from Zepfan finding a piece of metal in his engine in the thread called "Cold Start / Chain Tensioner / Busted Motor JUNK TENERE ??" (http://www.yamahasupertenere.com/index.php?topic=23468.0) If something seems a...

    Shaft drive oil - changed P/N?

    Need quick advice: I bought a quart of shaft drive oil about 2 years ago. It was $35-ish/qt at a Yamaha dealer in PA. I remember thinking that was outrageous. The same juice is used for FJR and VMax, says so on the bottle. Last week I asked for a quart of final drive oil at a Yamaha dealer...

    Improvised fork spring compressor

    I can't justify owning a such a specialized tool for a job I do once every few years. Note the green paracord tied on each side of one of the coils. That's one piece that loops down thru the axle hole. A bowline hitch on one side of the coil, and a taut line hitch on the other to take up all...

    2017 Steve's Vacay kindarally - 7/5-7/12, Cortez, CO

    As suggested in the 2017 National Rally thread, I'm starting my own thread: I am off work from 6/29/17 PM until 7/17/17 AM. I plan to trailer my bike from central FL to Ancient Cedars Campground, near Cortez, CO, where my truck camper will be base camp. That would put me on the ground in CO...

    GIVI PL367 pannier racks fits 2014+ NON-ES

    The 2013- Givi pannier rack part number is PL367; Givi updated the pannier racks for 2014 + to PL2119. The change is to accommodate the rear shock ES components, which interfere with the old/PL367 racks. My 2014 NON-ES is wearing the old/ PL367 racks just fine - no interference since the STD...
