I would keep this seal as a spare. Clutch slave has been known to fail after more than 10 years in use. Amazing thing is the cost is very low. One of my S10 friend had a clutch failure and manage to find a replacement seal off a automotive spare parts shop. Here's the rubber seal for the...

Youtube Link Tropical jungle trails, river crossings, muddy trails and a heavy bike going fast. Link did not show full race, unfortunately. Not shown was the last 16 km of the race where the bike ran without oil after taking damage to the underside of the engine. This is more than a bullet...

Thought I share how to unbend the brake or clutch levers if you happen to have a bad day. My bad day came. Bike moved forward as it was parked on a slight decline and as I was putting on the Givi box to its top rack. The side stand folded and down goes the bike onto the tarmac. Bent the...

I have always wanting to have a toolbox to store tire repair tools such as the Raid boxes and its likes but the cost is not acceptable to me. So, finally, I found something that fits my budget. Box: 210 x 165 x 85 mm external dimension. It is very similar to a Pelican case but is something I...

Mostly UK spec bikes were affected by this faulty "left" button. As a result, diagnostics and CO settings could not be done. Here is a success story how the Left Trip Button was diagnosed and restored. Credits: 1. "Harimau Buas" aka "Boy" from Malaysia for the Video of his bike dash PCB being...

The throttle hasn't gave me issues but did noticed at full throttle twist, it gets stuck. Bike is OFF when mucking around with it. On a hot day, it doesn't get stuck. So I opened up the throttle grip and didn't expect that much of a rust. Sanded down the rust, cleaned it and greased it with...

It is notable that our coils get corroded due to water entering the plug wells and being retained. Here is one possible solution, after trying it for 8k km in a tropical weather with thunderstorm weather and running through flooded streets....multiple times. I have checked both most left and...

I manage to purchase a used OEM Pannier luggage and the bracket set but the brackets were missing 2 parts, Item 1 and 2 as shown. (Seller forgot to remove these parts when he sold the bike). I do not have ready access to these brackets on another S10. The important feature is the Thickness of...

OK, Photobucket went to the grave for me because it is slower than a snail. And I discovered that Google Photos are really FAST! but does not gives you a direct link for embedding images here. You have to do an extra step. 1. You have to have Google Photos account, and place you images as a...

Upon inspection of my 4 year old DNA air filter, the PU rubber were cracking and 1 piece of a chuck near the 'center screw' fell off inside the air box. Pictures to come by later. Here is what I found on where it cracks: 1. A chunk with the size of 10mm x 40mm came off near the center screw...

I just had my Denso IU24 Iridium plugs removed and swap back to stock plugs. The IU24 is not suitable, performs worse off, and takes longer to start. I would not recommend Denso IU24 iridium for the S10. The Projected tip of the stock plug was specifically designed for the S10. If there is...

So I went towards the LED headlamp route, mainly due to the wire harness recall NOT being applied on my bike. The connector was heating up and melting and often I find only 1 headlamp is working. Due to unavailability of Yamaha service in my country, the next best thing is to find a cooler...

I could not find "Coil Diameter" or "Coil Size". Has anyone measured or know the diameter of the ignition coil? I am trying to find the right size O-rings to get a better seal against water ingress. Thanks in advance.

Like to share what I put on the S10 to improve riding comfort. This is a no drill, clamp on spoiler, that is clamped to the stock windshield. The price is great, a better option to purchasing a taller screen. Purchased from a Russian seller in eBay...

I bought a 2012 S10 that has been in storage for 3 years at the dealer. The color of the Brake fluid is not clear but I would say clear brown (looking through the rear brake reservoir). Is this the normal color? Thanks.

Hello S10 owners, I am from Malaysia and am strongly thinking of the MT09 Tracer initially but the S10 got my attention lately. The Tracer is not available yet, and the S10 are really difficult to find in dealers and even if I find one, it cost a bomb (I can buy 2 S10 for Malaysian price; my...
