I believe if you hold the “front trigger” switch down it will come up.
Changes for 2018 model?

Fair warning, max temperature is VERY hot! I wouldn't recommend trying it out without gloves.
Agreed. I don't know what my settings are, but generally I only use max for a few minutes. As soon as the grip starts to heat up, I drop it back to medium. Of course, it is kind of common sense. If it's cold enough for max, you should probably already be wearing gloves. There are those times though that you get caught unaware, by a large temperature drop.

I just bought a standard 2017 ST yesterday. Worked the OEM heated grips into the price...they're around $500 installed. Aftermarket is cheaper, but adding he Yamaha grips makes them "plug and play" with the menu/selector, just like they are on the ES. Well worth it to me.

There has been no change to the bike except color since 2014 with the release of the second generation that year. I have a 2014 and looking to sell it in the Spring for the BMW R1250GS..........unless Yamaha gets on the stick and does something major to the S10!!

Someone told me that access to the diagnostics mode from the instrument panel has been eliminated/defeated from the 2016 models and newer. Is it true?

Ah! The BMW R1250GS, better known as The Emperor’s New Clothes.......! In U.K., in the first reviews, it hasn’t done significantly better than the outgoing R1200GS and has been shown to drink more fuel too. Power comes at a cost.

What are you looking for that you would consider "major"? I think the S10 is pretty well dialed in.

I agree, the Beemer is a great bike. I came from an RT to the S10. That being said, I still see nothing wrong with the S10. If I wanted to REALLY nitpick, I could say the Beemer has a heated seat and the S10 doesn't and the S10's external temp gauge needs to be relocated.

Crazy that Yamaha does not list heated grips on their web page. I asked the dealer, he did not know, until we started going through the menus.

My 2016 has access to on board diagnostics, I don't know about later models.

I thought all models had the linked ABS brakes?

Nope ES only in 18 not sure on the rest of years.

You are correct all Super Teneres, at least since 2012 when they were introduced into the US, have linked ABS brakes, ES or standard, Gen 1 or Gen 2.
Good news on the diagnostics access, thanks

And therein lies part of the problem. The Super Tenere does NOT have an external temp gauge. The ambient temp is from the airbox temp gauge used for the EFI system. I seem to recall it's tweaked a little, but it's usually off because it's reading intake air temp not true ambient air temp from outside.
The 1250 comes with stock seat heat? Kind of awkward, since stock seats traditionally suck for anyone putting down miles.
I usually just look at the top of my gloves...
1 - if they have ice on them, it's too cold to ride
2 - if they are on fire, it's too hot to ride.
