What happens when the Mc Cruise is completely removed and put back to factory stock ?

I have watched friends doing it and was actually impressed at how easy it was. Have you tried watching some YouTube videos ?

Reading about your mc cruise problems makes me thankful I never attempted to install one on my previous 2013. I just paid the big money to upgrade to a 2018 with factory cruise control. Lots of folks have had very good luck with mc cruise.

So you recognized Tenere Guy standing in mailbox ?

You ain’t going to break the generation 1 or 2 Yamaha side stand, they are built way stronger than the BMW side stands. Since Mad-Matt has attempted the turn around thing with his Yamaha and couldn’t get it to work I guess I won’t even be attempting it. My BMW riding friend actually had his...

Yes it’s very important to keep Shock Sox’s clean otherwise forget about using them. i always replace seals and bushings at the same time and prefer to do both forks at the same time rather than tear everything apart again in a couple weeks.

Is this the video you are referring to ? The guy definitely has very good bike handling skills !

If I was in the market for a used Super Tenere I would not hesitate to buy this one !!! Magic the owner has an outstanding reputation on this board !

Do you have Skock Socks installed ? They work great for extending fork seal life.

TenereGuy also has the large 8 gallon tank on his 2017 Super Tenere, he added bar risers because otherwise the bars would touch the tank when doing full lock turns.

Where’s the 50+ page thread about hard starts ?

We do have a 50+ page thread about hard starts so you Might be able to learn something new there. My opinion is Yamaha didn’t use a powerful enough starter and that’s the main reason for so many hard starts. We all probably should have been filing complaints with NHTSA years ago and maybe then...

Custom tank custom paint. Tenere Guy also has one it’s 8 gallon. its very nice but would be to tall and heavy for me, stock tank range is well over 200 miles so I’m ready to take a break by then.

i highly recommend installing a lithium battery with 350 or more cold cranking amps then you can simply forget about all this hard start crap.

My water softener is hooked up so the water used outside to wash motorcycles and other things doesn’t go through the water softener . No use over working your water softener when not needed.

In over 100,000 miles of owning Super Tenere’s I only experienced hard start twice and fortunately both times happened at home in my garage. I believe both times it was caused by the batteries just not being strong enough. I have owned both 12S and 14S batteries and yes the 14S does have a...

What battery did you buy ? I highly recommend switching to lithium battery, I switched to Scorpion lithium battery last year and my Tenere finally doesn’t sound like the battery is half dead every time I start it. Here are a couple example’s , many other options available...
