    Have any of you inmates pulled the trigger on a new T7 and kept your S10. I have a 2014 s10 with 55,000 Km and consider it the best bike I have ever owned and have no intention of selling it. My second bike is a 2019 Wr250r which I really enjoy and other than wishing it had a little more power...

    Just put fresh tires on the bike this past weekend and got out for a test spin this evening. When I got home from a ride on the highway I was doing a once over to make sure there were no issue and I noticed when I touched the rear driveshaft pumpkin that it was hot to the touch. I suspect that...

    Rear drive shaft lubrication

    Getting ready to change the rear tire on the S10 and want to lube the rear driveshaft while I have everything apart. Looking to pick up a decent grease and from reading the forums a moly based grease seems to be the way to go. Living in Canada the easiest spot to pick up supplies is Canadian...

    Things to look for Used 2012 S10

    I am going to look at a gently used 2012 S10 with around 15,000 Km's. Bike has been well set up and the milage is low so may be a good bike. My question is are there any known issue I should be looking at when buying a used 2012 S10. A new 2016 would be nice but but the money I save on the 2012...

    Any "EX" Vstrom 1000 owners

    I am currently running a 2007 Suzuki Vstrom 1000 set up for touring. Bought the bike 3 years ago coming off a 2009 KLR 650 to try the adventure touring thing and to see if I like it. Buying the Vstrom was a great move for me but I knew when I purchased it I would be moving to something else in...
