    Sold!: Tusk Billet Foot Pegs

    Selling these Tusk foot pegs. They’re intended for the KLR, but fit perfect on the Super Ténéré. I tried them for a little while and ended up preferring the OEM pegs. Rocky Mountain sells them new for $79.95. I’m asking $60.00 + shipping.

    Looking for a rear tire on the road

    I underestimated the mileage I was going to get on my rear tire. I’m currently on the road, leaving Baker City OR, this morning (Sunday 09/10) headed to Missoula tonight, then to Jackpot NV tomorrow and finally to Carson City Tuesday night. Wondering if there are any forum members that might...

    Brake pad tip.

    Changed all the brake pads today, flushed and bled the hydraulics, cycled the pump and bled again. While removing the front pads, one of the tiny hitch pins flew to parts unknown somewhere in my garage. I heard land somewhere way over there - damnit! On a bet, I tried checking the local Ace...

    Dash problem?

    So, I had an interesting problem this morning. On my 2015 ES, the right side menus disappeared. Pulling the trigger switch on the left bar changed pages normally and the top part showed. For example on the heated grip page, the image of the grip appeared above, but the rest of the page was...

    Packtalk channels

    Hi, I recently added a Garmin XT to my bike. I have it paired to the PT on one Bluetooth Channel on the Packtalk and I have the second Bluetooth channel paired to a Senna SM-10 BT dongle to which I have my radar detector connected via a hardwire. My problem is that if the XT is playing music to...

    Zumo XT + Motopumps mount question

    Hello, I just received my new zumo XT and am thinking about mounting it to the 12mm cross bar with a Motopumps mount. I see that the clamp can be positioned off-center to the AMPS plate. Is there enough offset to raise the XT on the bar enough to ensure visibility of the dash turn indicators...

    *SOLD* Brand new Gaerne Dakar boots

    Black/brown color, EU size 45 (10.5 US). These are gorgeous boots but a size too small for me. I usually wear a 45 so was surprised at their fit. I’ve walked around the house a little and sat on the bike so as to adjust the shifter, but they are basically unused. Asking $375, includes shipping...

    Head stock bearings question

    My ‘15 has developed a distinct “notch” in the dead ahead steering direction. I know this means I need to replace the headstock bearings. I’m used to seeing a race, bearing and seal for each end of the steering tube. When I look at the parts fiche I see the upper and lower bearings but no races...

    Any experience with Hi-Flo air filter?

    Looks identical to OEM but costs less. Almost thinking this is what Yamaha uses as OEM. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    Back to Back Dyno runs, 2nd gen before and after Anthony's tune?

    Has anyone published anything? I had my ECU reflashed by Anthony mostly to smooth and improve throttle response. After riding it a bit, much improved BTW, I think I'm sensing additional power as well. Knowing how inaccurate the butt dyno is I went looking for some comparison charts but am having...

    Tusk Highland Luggage

    Looks like Tusk has introduced a line of soft luggage. Has anyone tried the rackless Highland bags on their Tenere? I'm particularly interested if they will work with the factory bag hangers left in place. They look pretty nice...

    Fork parts question

    I'm looking to replace seals and bushing in the front forks of my 2015 ES. I'm looking at the part fiche and I believe the bushings are diagram numbers , 4,22 for inner fork tube and and 5,23 for the outer tube. Not sure but I think the dual numbers in the diagram are for left and right sides...

    Tenere Scared me the other day!

    I was splitting lanes on my way home the other night and when I went to change gears, the engine just stopped as I pulled in the clutch. This engine stall thing seems to happen randomly every few months, probably less than 10 times since I bought the bike in summer '15. It usually happens when...
