Just a quick question... Is Yamaha still shipping the locks for the hard bags with the bike? Looks like they had been sending them under the seat, even if you didn't buy the bags.

Mine didn't come with any, and the sales guy wasn't sure if they were still doing that. Just checking... I'm grabbing bags, but from a different (much closer to home) dealer and don't want to have to jump through hoops.

THanks!

Oleg66,
Congratulations and welcome to the forum.

How's the weather in Lithuania? I would like to hear your thoughts on your 2014 model, maybe here http://www.yamahasupertenere.com/index.php?topic=8443.330 , I think you are the first on this forum with a 2014 Super Tenere.

Yes, it's standard Yamaha practice. For my FJR, I had to go back to the dealer and ask. (bags didn't come in with the bike) Who ever prepped the bike left them on the work bench and they got thrown in the misc. box. Ask the dealer you got the bike from. You may have to go check with your bike keys to make sure you get the correct locks. And yes, there should be three.

Thanks everybody! They were supposed to be there, but weren't. Bummer, since the dealer I bought at is 3-4 hours from home... I'm a little skeptical as to whether it was an honest mistake or insurance to help make sure I came back to buy the bags there. I mentioned that I'd be getting them... At least I see that others have run into it as a sincere oversight. Thanks!
