I have a bunch of used aftermarket parts that were on a 2016 super tenere. The bike was a lemon and manufacturer is replacing with a FJR1300. I think model years 2014-2017 are all the same so these should work on these years.

Update: Everything is OBO, make an offer. Buy my stuff so I can buy new stuff!

Update 2: Everything not listed as Sold is still not sold. Dropping the prices. New Prices in Yellow

Everything has no scratches or dents, shipping extra, free delivery within 40ish miles of Oakland, Ca. What I have :

Arrow exhaust I forgot to add that I put a couple of holes in the baffle to increase the volume. It did end up upping the volume some and gave it a little more throaty sound. I still mostly road without the baffle after this anyways. I think you can order a new one, but you'd have to research this if you do not like the modded "baffled" sound.- new around $480, I'm asking $350 obo $320 sold, thanks Jim

Winglets - New around $80, asking $50 Sold! Thanks Mike!

Givi engine guards - new $218, I'm asking $120. One of the allen heads is stripped, I took it out with a torx bit, can probably be put back in with the same. One of the welded screws came off, a simple nut and bolt combo will work fine in its absence. Minus these 2 things they are flawless. Sold, thanks Jay!

Madstad adjustable windscreen mount - new around $160, asking $120 Sold, thanks Jay!

Alt Rider rear luggage mount with Givi monokey mounting hardware - new around $250, asking $200 obo $180sold, thanks Jim![/s]

Givi cam side case holders for use with trekker outback side cases - new $227, asking $180.$160

Parabellum 24" windscreen - new $200, asking $180 Sold, thanks Jay!

Shad - 45 liter box with universal mount, Sorry I lied earlier, this one has some scratches on it, still looks good, used daily through norcal's historic rain this season and not a drop got inside - new around $210, asking $150 $110 Sold

The bike had a stalling issue which I think ties in with it sounding like it misfires occasionally, screen sometimes would go blank while starting, and bike would quit turning over for a brief second. It stalled randomly, maybe once a week while moving, but I commute around 300 miles a week, splitting lanes in rush hour traffic, and this put me in several unsafe scenarios. It would happen moving at highway speeds when I pulled in the clutch and around town moving slower, but also I would kill the bike taking off from stops a lot.

I've been riding for 15 years, have owned 6 old and used bikes and a new FZ-09, and never had issues like this. I don't think I'm a perfect rider, I would occasioning kill my other bikes taking off from a stop, but this would happen once every 5 months or so maybe, not 3 or more times a week. I started revving the engine higher to take off, which I'm sure has caused excessive wear on the clutch, and still have this issue.

I posted about it when I first got the bike. Several people said they had similar issues but that it cleared up after 600 miles, 2000 miles, 5000 miles. I am at 14,000 miles now, I gave the dealer 3 visits to try and remedy it, and put lots of miles in between hoping there was a magic number that would clear it up. After the 3rd visit and the perfect storm of changing lanes in rush hour stop and go traffic in the rain, a stall almost got me into an accident, so I gave up on this bike. Yamaha wanted to bring it in for a 4th service and run fuel injector cleaner through it, but I open it up every day when I get on the highway, plus the issue started at the very beginning, so this sounded like a waste of my time. Dealer is not close to me, I have to drop the bike off the night before a service, $10 uber ride home, extra hour added to my commute the next day from driving a car, pick up bike and drive home, uber back to dealership and drive car again through rush hour traffic. They turned me down when I called asking for a refund, so I got a lemon law lawyer, took gopro video footage of all of the stalls, and 3 months later now we settled with them replacing it. I read and enough people on here said their bikes did this in the beginning that the thought of going through all of this and getting a replacement and having it stall again was enough to scare me away from getting the same bike....sad cause I really liked it otherwise.

PM me if you have more questions or want more details, I don't want to sidetrack my attempt at losing a bunch of money in accessories.

Once you don't trust a spouse or a vehicle it's better to walk away sometimes.
The FJR is a great bike too!

Thanks for the detail. I'm wondering if you flashed the ECU for the Arrow pipe or not?

I did not flash it for the arrow pipe. It was stalling before I put the arrow pipe on. I've also had the bike back to stock now for about 3 weeks or so and it still stalls.

Thanks Ryan! I received all my parts, found them to be as advertised, and am putting them to good use! Good luck with selling the rest of your farkles.

Lucky you had a lemon law to protect you. None in Japan where I am. I had stalling issues with my Africa Twin in Japan. After repeated attempts to fix it including replacing many engine parts and the ECU, my dealer finally turned to Honda HQ, who declared that stalling was an engine characteristic and totally normal. Luckily my dealer bought it back for a bit above market value, but I would have preferred a new bike....
