I have come to realize it's time to downsize my motorcycles. I only used this bike for street rides and I just don't ride on the road much anymore, so it just sits in the garage....
This is the 5th T12 I have had and this one is tastefully setup with quality accessories. I am a former Yamaha dealer and I am quite picky about how stuff fits and is serviced. I just serviced this bike after a big loop to Yellowstone. It is ready to ride anywhere. Here are the details.....

The ES comes standard with the electronic suspension as well as heated grips and cruise control all integrated into the instrument panel and switchgear. The other listed are accessories...

V-Stream Windshield, Madstad Windshield Mount, Dash fill panel, TPS tire warning system, Garmin XT GPS mount (no GPS), Cyclops LED Headlights, ADV Monster LED Driving lights, Altrider Headlight Guards, Altrider Engine Guard, Altrider Upper Engine Guard, Altrider Skid Plate, Altrider Rear Rack, Altrider Fork Guards, Shock Sox, Yamaha Wind Deflectors, Yamaha Tank Bag, Handle Bar Risers, LidLox Bar End Helmet Locks, Eastern Beaver Fuse Block, AYN License Plate Frame with Brake and Turn Sighnals, Off The Road Adjustable Shift Lever, SW-Motech Adjustable Foot Pegs, Tech Spec Tank Pads, Givi Trecker Outback Side Cases, Givi Bag Mounts, Givi Dolomiti Top Case with Backrest Pad, Bag Liners and probably some other stuff I'm forgetting. The tires are about 70% plus I have a new set of Continental TKC70's that come with it. I have both keys and possible more with the key tag and the same number of keys for the luggage. All of the Givi bags are keyed the same. The bike currently has 16,943 miles on the odometer. I did put a speedo healer on the bike and it reads exactly the same as my GPS. These were notorious for being way off... I will post a second one with the remainder of the pictures.

Riding season is around the corner and I think this bike is priced fairly at $8,000.

Thanks for looking,

~Tony

Never saw those helmet hangers before, they do look interesting but I already have a different helmet hanger mounted on my Tenere that very seldom gets used so most likely won’t be switching.

Those were the 1st I had ever seen as well. They are extremely handy and when not in use I put the "T" hanger in the map pocket of the tank bag... I always have someone wanting to hang theirs on the other side... I don't like leaving a high end helmet sitting on the seat or carrying it around.

Just curious how far off you found your speedo to be? We have a couple super tenere es and an XSR900. All have abs (my understanding is the speed is derived from the abs sensors, so only tire size would affect the reading) and they all read about 1.5mph fast at any speed.

Unlike my older bikes that typically read 10% fast. I even made a gearing change on the XSR900 and it's still one of the most accurate speedos i've ever had when compared to the gps.

The speedo was off 10% pretty much across the board, but the odometer was spot on! I am a former Yamaha dealer and I asked the service rep why this was the case and he told me the OEM erred on the high side to avoid lawsuits.... Typical CYA actions. I used the 12 'Oclock Labs universal kit to correct it. It wasn't too awful difficult to install, just a bit tedious. It requires 12v & negative connections and then you cut the ABS wire and it connects between the cut wire inline. Then you adjust the device with the included instructions in a few seconds.
