New here and I've got the Super Tenere bug, and looking for recommendations for Yamaha dealers in CT or nearby. I'd be looking to purchase a new 2013 Super Ten in blue, but equally important is the quality of service the dealer provides. Also, is there anywhere to get a demo ride? FWIW, I now have a 2003 Ducati Multistrada (the air-cooled model). Any help or advice would be most appreciated. Thanks!

First off, welcome aboard.

Second, a quick shopping tip. The 2012's come in Blue or Black and the 2013's come in either White or Matte Gray.

BS, greetings from Texas. Welcome to the forum and good luck in your search. If looking for a blue machine (2012), why not check CraigsList for used?

Now see what trouble I'd be getting into already without some help?! Thank you!

There is a nice-looking blue 2012 on Cycle Trader, has 3700 miles, 600 mile service and headlight harness recall service completed, factory heated grips and saddle bags, headlight guard, Hepco-Becker skid plate. Says never off-road, garage kept. Owner is looking for $10,500. Have exchanged a couple of emails with owner, seems like a nice guy. Any advice or words to the wise much appreciated.

Thanks again.

In terms of price, looks like a good place to start. I suspect there is some room to negotiate. Look through the For Sale section of this forum and you can see the price point at which some Teneres have recently sold. If this Cycle Trader bike has some high-dollar farkles (panniers/top box/flash/PCV/good skid plate/bars), might be worth it if you planned to add those items later anyway.
