A friend of mine, Gary, bought a Super Tenere from my dealer last year and has decided to sell. He is concerned that it is too tall for him and has decided to get something shorter and so said he wanted to sell before something happens and he drops it. He doesn't do the internet thing, so I told him I would see if I could help. This bike was a showroom display unit that was outfitted with all the Yamaha accessories, including side bags, top case, tall windscreen, crash bar, skid plate, wind deflectors, both the standard and lower seat. He also has a Cee Bailey headlight protector and a Cee Bailey windscreen. This bike has less than 1100 miles on it and is absolutely perfect. We don't have any pics right now, but should have some in a couple of weeks. Gary lives near me in south central IL, but also has a house in Mountain Home, AR and the bike is down there right now.

With all these accessories and with such low miles, Gary is offering this bike for $13,500. If you are interested, please PM me and I will give you contact information so that you can talk to Gary directly.

EDITED to show lower miles than I first posted. it is under 1100 miles!

Thanks,

Fred Z.

Good write-up Fred. That is a very good deal for someone close. I am gonna send this to a friend in Santa Rosa CA but that is a long haul.

Extended warranty?
Heated grips?
Driving lights?
Side cases / Top box Liners?

Hi Tim,

I'll call Gary tomorrow. I know that it doesn't have the heated grips, but I'll have to check on the others.

Gary bought the extended warranty, but the dealer didn't have the driving lights when he picked it up and he didn't get the bag liners. Here is a pic the day he picked it up.

Shame to have to sell a nearly new bike. I'm barely scraping 5'7" with a 30" inseam and I have no issues riding the bike with the seat in the high position. Just how big a boy is he?

I'm not sure, but you can get an idea in the pic in the post right above your post. He says he just doesn't feel confident on it and wants something smaller.

Fair enough, just surprising as I've found the S10's low CoG and exceptional balance makes it a piece of cake to ride even through heavy city traffic. Pretty much as easy as my F650GS Dakar, on tarmac anyhow.

I understand that he is looking at a CRF250L with lowering link.

When he said he was downsizing he wasn't kidding! ::025::

If he can't get what he wants and decides to part out the accessories, I'd be interested in the side cases.

He has several other bikes, just looking for something to tool around with at his AR home when he is down there.

Gary brought the bike to IL today, about 1 hour from St Louis. I checked the mileage and he only has 1084 on it. We are also exploring the possibility of installing lowering links, so that it would fit him better. Sent a PM to Wasp.

Nothing wrong with Wasp Works, but Ride On ADV (Jaxon), also makes lowering links. $89. I just put some on last week or so for the wife. Higher quality than the oem links, and fast service.

Thanks for that, Eric. Haven't heard back from Wasp anyway.

Hi, I am on the market for such a bike. Additionally, if he is interested, I have a 07 FZ6 with givi side cases, top case, heated grips, engine guard, and newer tires that I would be willing to part with. I am a four-season rider and this is my commuter. In any case, how do I go about getting more info?

Hello,

Check your PM's I just sent you one with Gary's contact info. Also, if Gary is not interested in your FZ6, I have another friend that may be interested in it.

Thanks,

Fred Z.

Thanks again for the prompt response.

Regarding my mule, I am not interested in parting with it *except* as a possible double-win, like it might be in your friend's case, but thank you for thinking of other possibilities.
