Just picked up this beast this morning! I imported it from Edmonton to Toronto. Most Americans will never have seen or heard of this bike as it was never for sale in the US. It’s a 2007 Yamaha MT-01, the grandfather of all MT bikes. It features a 1700cc V-TWIN engine derived from a Roadstar...

Hi Everyone, I am interested in buying a used motorcycle (private sale) from an individual who lives in Edmonton, Alberta. He told me he has never sold a bike privately before and was not sure of the entire process. I am in Ontario, interested in buying this bike and I am very familiar with the...

Hey Guys! I am looking to do an "Adventure" tour next year with my Super Tenere. I usually do a nice long ride but i've been trying to do something a little different, I usually do the same old rides over and over again.. I want to try go somewhere new, explore different places. I'm looking for...

And I must say, the bike works very well!! ::012:: Neither myself or my wife are very little people, we're 400lbs together on the bike but the Super Tenere didn't flinch at all! I was worried that it wouldn't have the power to move swiftly but I was mistaken. My last few bikes were huge engines...

I've managed to get through almost an entire year without getting caught in the rain on my Super Tenere. When I bought my bike, it already had a set of Puig Crash bars installed. Anyway, so I was riding along to get some service done on my bike and the weather was just mildly drizzly, not even...

I was recently just playing around with my bike when I had a closer look at my wheels, and I noticed that the arrow was facing backwards? This is a used bike which I purchased so I assumed the wheel was facing the right way but... appears that is not the case. I guess my question is, is it...

Hey Guys, me again with another review! Recently I purchased Fork Guards from ADVMOTORAD as I really liked the way they look, but didn't want to spend the $800 or whatever it costs up here in Canada, the price was way to scary to even look at on the yamaha website... Received the guards well...

Hello All! Thought I would contribute a little with some of the mods I installed on my 16' Tenere ES recently. I have the larger yamaha windshield on my bike and while I find it to be quite excellent in the high position, I notice that I have the slightest bit of buffeting hitting my eyes which...

Hey guys me again! I noticed after work when I got to my bike that there are small 1" or 2" puddles on the ground under my bike. I'm not very good at identifying liquids but I touched it and it was still wet, smelled it and it was light colored and smelled like a oil barrel or something lol...

Hey Guys! So I found some roads near by where I live that have some unpaved roads. By unpaved, I mean secondary roads off the main highway or streets that are hard packed dirt --- So I tried turning onto one and within 100 feet I got incredibally scared shitless because it felt like I was riding...

First I want to say I am sorry I can't credit the person on the board who recommended this device because I can't find the post again but thank you!! I've literally been looking for months and months for some kind of solution that would allow me to have a proper temperature readout and charge...

I decided to get a sw motech skid plate as it was a reasonable price for me and I liked the looks of it. I will not be doing much off-roading but I am glad to have it. The part I wanted to bring up is if anyone happens to have Puig crash bars, they will work with the sw motech skid plate. They...

I've always installed an air horn on my bikes every time I get a new one. They are so much fun. I was glad to see that there is a very nice bracket that attaches to the right side of the bike and I just bought a generic air horn relay harness. Totally worth the money to make wiring so easy...

I recently bought a PCV that came with an O2 Optimizer. I only have an Arrow Slipon installed right now, but I did find a tune from Dynojets website with my exact setup for a map. I dont know what an O2 Optimizer is or what it does. Should I install that with the PCV? is it necessary? I did...

Just looking to see if there are any other riders in the nearby area who can ride together sometime! ::020::

Hey folks, thought I would try and make a different post other then ones about how much trouble I'm having with my bike lol I had a question about when using the ES adjustments are the most appropriate. For example, I know that you can adjust hard to soft, but when should you consider doing so...

Hey Guys. Me again. Sorry. I know some of you by now are rolling your eyes going "What now?" but believe me, I wish this wasn't necessary to ask. I'm not having fun with my Super Tenere for the past little while, and I don't know what the hell is going on. Just this past weekend I had my bike...

Hey guys. Mr again. I hate to bring up another issue but this time I am not sure if this is an actual problem or nature of this beast. I've noticed that after I took my bike in for service to have my brakes checked out and have an oil change done, when I start up my bike in the morning I...

So I'm at the office putting away some groceries in the very handy panniers on my bike when a guy comes by and goes "That's an old mans bike!" a short while after a completely different person who works at my company who rides an R1 (That got stolen last year) says "How you enjoying that thing...

Hey Guys. So with spring just getting here, I was able to get my bike out for a real ride this weekend. I've noticed that the rear brake has very smooth and linear response, but my front brakes have a weird... well I don't want to say pulsing because I know what that feels like, but its more...
