Hi, my name is Steve and I'm just about to part ex my R1 for a Super Tenere in black (the best colour). I pick it up on Saturday. I hope to make use of the forum for tips and advice once I've picked it up and ridden it a bit.

Welcome from Texas and hope you enjoy the Ten. When I first got mine I thought " this is nice". The more I ride it I think " this is a great bike". It's kinda brought me back to the basics of riding. Not overly concerned about how fast I'm going or how fast can I take that corner and never having to pass up a gravel road. It' kinda of a do a little bit of everything bike.

Welcome to the Forum Steve!!! You are going to find a huge difference in ergos between the R1 and the SuperT!! ::26::

The black is a great color (almost as nice as the blue)!!! ::017::

Welcome, Steve. You're on the right black, uh, track. R

Hi Steve from Wooster. ::004::

The R1 and S10 are both great adventure bikes just the S10 is Super tough. (Tenere is Tuareg for tough)

Looks like you have good taste. ::024::

Cheers
Graham

It'll be worth getting the front of the engine and wheel spokes coated in ACF50 before the weather turns. Just done mine as I think they'll be gritting the roads round here shortly.

I always thought wooster sauce was from Thailand, or Vietnam, or something...

Rooster Sauce

Now I know wooster sauce is really

this stuff

...and thank you wikipedia... after learning that London Broil is unknown in London, I was a little bit concerned... but this one seems to be real enough.

Welcome to the forum.
Thanks. I had never heard of London Broil but now I have (every day's a school day) :)

That is proper Worcestershire Sauce, which used to be made in Worcester but the factory closed down a couple of years ago. Not sure where its made now :-\

Hi Steve

welcome from another UK S10. You won't be disappointed with your bike I'm sure.

Almost enough of us now to organise a RTT (Rolling Thunder Tour)
