Often I ride in slow traffic and wondered what is the slowest speed the S10 can run at with the clutch fully out?
I found this but do not believe the answer ?
FOUND ON THE NET
Yamaha Super Tenere XTZ1200 Gearing?
I've read a review that states the slowest the Yamaha Super Tenere XTZ1200 will go in 1st gear (without using the clutch) is around 12 Miles per hour (20Km/h).
Isn't that a little fast for difficult off road sections? Can any 1200 Super Tenere owners please help with this question, as I am considering buying one?
Also, considering it has shaft drive, do any Yamaha mechanics know if it is possible to change (lower) the gearing by somehow altering the final drive gears in the gearbox (not the rear differential) as I noticed there are 2 gears before the output shaft? Thanks in advance!
Update : The speed quoted (12 mile/hour) is at idle in 1st gear with the clutch out , the motor won't go any slower or else it would stall.
